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 Ninox through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

The Ninox MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Ninox account. It provides structured and secure access to your custom database applications, so your agent can perform actions like listing databases, retrieving details, and deleting records—all without manual intervention.

• Retrieve all team databases: Instantly ask your agent to fetch and list every database available within a specified Ninox team to streamline access and navigation.
• Automated record deletion: Empower your agent to delete specific records from any table, given the correct workspace, database, table, and record IDs—keeping your data organized and up-to-date.
• Database overview for project management: Have your agent quickly provide an overview of all databases for project tracking or auditing purposes within your team.
• Simplified database administration: Let your agent automate repetitive admin tasks, like cleaning up obsolete records, so you can focus on building smarter workflows.
