Headout is a global platform for booking travel experiences, tours, and entertainment. It helps users discover and secure activities at top destinations, all in one place.

Introduction

Claude is Anthropic's AI assistant, available on the web, in the desktop app, and on mobile. 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 Headout account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to find available Paris city tours for next weekend, book two tickets for the Louvre Museum tour, show your upcoming Headout bookings and reservations, 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.

3. Connect your Headout account

Back in Claude, ask it to connect to Headout or give it any Headout-related task.

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Find available Paris city tours for next weekend."
  • "Book two tickets for the Louvre Museum tour."
  • "Show your upcoming Headout bookings and reservations."

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

That's it. Composio's tools are now available in Claude, and your Headout account is ready to use.

What is the Headout Claude Connector, and what's possible with it?

The Headout MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Headout account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Headout operations on your behalf.

Troubleshooting

1. Why does Claude not use the Composio connector for Headout?

The connector can show as connected, but Claude must use it in each Headout conversation.

  • Click + at the lower left of the chat, or type /.
  • Hover Connectors.
  • Turn on Composio.
  • Ask Claude to connect to Headout again.

2. Why does Claude show an MCP server error before Headout connects?

Claude can show Couldn't reach the MCP server or Authorization with the MCP server failed when you add the connector for Headout.

  • 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 Headout.
  • If it fails again, send the error and the ofid_ reference id to support@composio.dev.

3. Why does the Headout authorization link not work?

The Composio connector is one server. Your Headout account connects separately when Claude asks for it.

  • If the browser does not open, or the link expires, ask Claude to retry the Headout connection.
  • Composio creates a fresh Headout authorization link.
  • Open that link in your browser and finish the Headout sign-in.

4. Why do Headout actions fail after they worked before?

The Headout connection can expire or lose permission.

  • Ask Claude to inspect the Headout connection.
  • If the connection is unhealthy, disconnect it when Claude prompts you.
  • Reconnect the Headout account and retry the action.
  • If Claude shows a permission prompt, approve it before Claude changes data in Headout.
  • If the action still fails with a permission error, check that the connected account has that permission in Headout itself.

5. How do I switch to a different Headout account?

Claude can manage the Headout connection for you.

  • Ask Claude to disconnect or delete the current Headout account.
  • Ask Claude to connect Headout again.
  • Open the new Composio authorization link for Headout.
  • Sign in with the other Headout account in the browser.
  • After the account connects, ask Claude to retry the Headout task.

6. Why is my Headout connection missing in Claude Desktop or on a Team plan?

The connector belongs to your Claude account, so your Headout connection works in Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork.

  • In Claude Desktop, open Customize > Connectors.
  • Next to Composio, click ⋮ and click Clear cache.
  • If Headout 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 Headout.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Headout MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Headout tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Headout and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

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 Headout tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Headout 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.

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 Headout data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
