Introduction

Cowork is Anthropic's AI agent for knowledge work. Think of it as Claude Code for everything else. It works autonomously with your computer, local files, and applications to accomplish complex tasks.

This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your Kaleido account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to list all API keys for your organization, create a new API key for our consortium, show all event streams configured in this environment, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.

4. Connect your Kaleido account

Back in Cowork, ask the agent to connect to Kaleido or give it any Kaleido-related task.

For example, ask Cowork to:

  • "List all API keys for your organization"
  • "Create a new API key for our consortium"
  • "Show all event streams configured in this environment"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

What is Claude Cowork?

Claude Cowork is Anthropic's agent for general knowledge work. It can use your computer, files, and connected applications to complete longer-running tasks across your work tools.

With Composio Connect, Cowork can securely access apps like Kaleido through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

What is the Kaleido MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Kaleido MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Kaleido account. It provides structured and secure access to your blockchain environment, so your agent can perform actions like managing organizations, handling API keys, retrieving memberships, and monitoring event streams on your behalf.

  • Organization and consortium management: Let your agent list, retrieve, and manage organizations and consortia that you have access to—making it easy to keep your blockchain networks organized.
  • API key lifecycle control: Effortlessly create, retrieve, and delete API keys for your organization, so you can handle credential management without manual steps.
  • Membership and access insights: Quickly fetch details about user memberships and organizational access, helping you stay on top of roles and permissions in your blockchain environment.
  • Event stream monitoring: Retrieve and review all event streams configured in your environment, making it simple to keep tabs on real-time blockchain activity.
  • App2App and credential retrieval: Ask your agent to list App2App runtimes and fetch application credentials for specific environments, streamlining application integration and deployment.

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Kaleido MCP?

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

Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Kaleido while using Tool Router?

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