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 Identitycheck account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to check onboarding status for a specific user, list all successful onboardings from last week, fetch document content for a given onboarding, 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 Identitycheck account

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

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Check onboarding status for a specific user"
  • "List all successful onboardings from last week"
  • "Fetch document content for a given onboarding"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Identitycheck MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Identitycheck account. It provides structured and secure access to your verification workflows, so your agent can perform actions like checking onboarding status, fetching document content, managing notification endpoints, and retrieving configurations on your behalf.

  • Instant onboarding status checks: Your agent can retrieve and monitor the progress or result of any onboarding process, keeping you updated in real time.
  • Document content retrieval: Effortlessly fetch base64-encoded document content tied to a specific onboarding and document code for further analysis or archiving.
  • Comprehensive configuration management: List, fetch, or delete identity verification configurations, giving you full control over your Identitycheck setup without manual dashboard work.
  • Notification endpoint oversight: List, fetch, or remove notification endpoints to customize how and where you receive verification event updates.
  • API health monitoring: Quickly verify API availability before performing operations, ensuring reliability and uptime for your verification workflows.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Identitycheck authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Identitycheck connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Identitycheck connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Identitycheck MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Identitycheck tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Identitycheck 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 Identitycheck tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Identitycheck 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 Identitycheck data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
