Cowork is its agent for knowledge work, and it runs on all of those surfaces too. Connected to your apps, Claude can work with your files and services to accomplish complex tasks on your behalf. This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your GPTBots account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to summarize last week top user conversations, search knowledge base for onboarding checklist, list unresolved support tickets from conversations, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security. Setup is the same on Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork, and you only need to do it once. The connector is tied to your account, so it's available in all three. ## Also integrate GPTBots with - [ChatGPT Work](https://composio.dev/toolkits/gptbots/framework/chatgpt) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/gptbots/framework/hermes-agent) ## Connect GPTBots to Claude Cowork ### Connecting GPTBots to Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork Two ways to add the Composio connector. Pick whichever you prefer. ### 1. Add with one click Click the button. Claude opens with the Composio connector filled in. Click Add, then go to step 2. [Add to Claude](https://claude.ai/customize/connectors?modal=add-custom-connector&connectorName=Composio&connectorUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fconnect.composio.dev%2Fmcp) ### Add manually In Claude Desktop, click Customize in the left sidebar, then select Connectors and click the + icon at the top. Click Add custom connector and paste in the Composio MCP server URL: ```bash https://connect.composio.dev/mcp ``` ## What is the GPTBots MCP server, and what's possible with it? The GPTBots MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your GPTBots account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform GPTBots operations on your behalf. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `GPTBOTS_CREATE_CONVERSATION` | Create Conversation | Create a GPTBots conversation for a developer-defined user on the Agent connected by this API key.

Why does Claude not use the Composio connector for GPTBots? The connector can show as connected, but Claude must use it in each GPTBots conversation. - Click + at the lower left of the chat, or type /. - Hover Connectors. - Turn on Composio. - Ask Claude to connect to GPTBots again. ### 2. Why does Claude show an MCP server error before GPTBots connects? Claude can show Couldn't reach the MCP server or Authorization with the MCP server failed when you add the connector for GPTBots. - Check that the connector URL is https://connect.composio.dev/mcp. - Connectors run from Anthropic's cloud, so your device network is usually not the problem. - Add the connector again from Customize > Connectors, then ask Claude to connect GPTBots. - If it fails again, send the error and the ofid_ reference id to support@composio.dev. ### 3. Why does the GPTBots authorization link not work? The Composio connector is one server. Your GPTBots account connects separately when Claude asks for it. - If the browser does not open, or the link expires, ask Claude to retry the GPTBots connection. - Composio creates a fresh GPTBots authorization link. - Open that link in your browser and finish the GPTBots sign-in. ### 4. Why do GPTBots actions fail after they worked before? The GPTBots connection can expire or lose permission. - Ask Claude to inspect the GPTBots connection. - If the connection is unhealthy, disconnect it when Claude prompts you. - Reconnect the GPTBots account and retry the action. - If Claude shows a permission prompt, approve it before Claude changes data in GPTBots. - If the action still fails with a permission error, check that the connected account has that permission in GPTBots itself. ### 5. How do I switch to a different GPTBots account? Claude can manage the GPTBots connection for you. - Ask Claude to disconnect or delete the current GPTBots account. - Ask Claude to connect GPTBots again. - Open the new Composio authorization link for GPTBots. - Sign in with the other GPTBots account in the browser. - After the account connects, ask Claude to retry the GPTBots task. ### 6. Why is my GPTBots connection missing in Claude Desktop or on a Team plan? The connector belongs to your Claude account, so your GPTBots connection works in Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork. - In Claude Desktop, open Customize > Connectors. - Next to Composio, click ⋮ and click Clear cache. - If GPTBots tools still do not appear, click ⋮, disconnect, remove the connector, and add it again. - On Team or Enterprise, an Owner or Primary Owner must enable the connector before you can connect GPTBots. ## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK The GPTBots MCP server connects Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork to your GPTBots account through Composio. Once connected, Claude can use the available GPTBots tools and triggers to complete tasks on your behalf. ## Complete Code None listed. ## How to build GPTBots MCP Agent with another framework - [ChatGPT Work](https://composio.dev/toolkits/gptbots/framework/chatgpt) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/gptbots/framework/hermes-agent) ## Related Toolkits - [Composio](https://composio.dev/toolkits/composio) - Composio is an integration platform that connects AI agents with hundreds of business tools.

With a standalone GPTBots MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of GPTBots tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from GPTBots and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Claude Cowork? Yes, you can. Claude Cowork fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right GPTBots tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for GPTBots while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which GPTBots scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do. ### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router? All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your GPTBots data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
