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 Openweather api account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to get current weather in Paris right now, show 5-day forecast for San Francisco, check today's air quality in New Delhi, 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 Openweather api account

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Get current weather in Paris right now"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Openweather api MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Openweather api account. It provides structured and secure access to real-time, forecasted, and historical weather data, so your agent can fetch current conditions, deliver forecasts, analyze air quality, and perform location-based weather insights on your behalf.

  • Current weather retrieval: Instantly get up-to-the-minute weather details for any city or geographic coordinate, including temperature, humidity, and wind.
  • Five-day weather forecasting: Ask your agent for detailed 5-day forecasts in 3-hour intervals to plan events, travel, or outdoor activities.
  • Air pollution and UV index analysis: Retrieve current, forecasted, and historical air pollution data, as well as UV index values, to monitor environmental quality for any location.
  • Geocoding and reverse geocoding: Convert location names to coordinates or find city/state information from latitude and longitude, enabling location-aware weather queries.
  • Radius-based weather search: Fetch weather conditions for all cities within a specified radius around a geographic point for broader regional analysis.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Openweather api authorization link not work?

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

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

4. Why do Openweather api actions fail after they worked before?

The Openweather api connection can expire or lose permission.

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

5. How do I switch to a different Openweather api account?

Claude can manage the Openweather api connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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