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 MoSPI account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to summarize latest Indian CPI inflation trends, compare recent IIP growth by sector, find unemployment statistics from MoSPI reports, 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.

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

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
Add custom connector dialog with Composio MCP server URL

2. Authorize in your browser

Click Connect. You'll be redirected to a browser window where you can authorize Composio to continue.

3. Connect your MoSPI account

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

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Summarize latest Indian CPI inflation trends"
  • "Compare recent IIP growth by sector"
  • "Find unemployment statistics from MoSPI reports"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

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

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the MoSPI authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The MoSPI connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the MoSPI connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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