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 Persistiq account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to send personalized cold emails to new leads, create a follow-up sequence for prospects, log a completed sales call as a task, 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 Persistiq account

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Send personalized cold emails to new leads"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Persistiq MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your PersistIQ account. It provides structured and secure access to your sales automation workflows, so your agent can perform actions like managing campaigns, sending personalized emails, creating and updating leads, and automating sales tasks on your behalf.

  • Personalized email campaign management: Let your agent create, schedule, and manage outbound email sequences to engage prospects at scale.
  • Lead and contact automation: Seamlessly add, update, or remove leads and contacts, ensuring your sales pipeline is always fresh and accurate.
  • Automated task handling: Enable your agent to create, update, or complete tasks, helping your team stay on top of follow-ups and to-dos.
  • Activity tracking and reporting: Retrieve detailed reports and track engagement metrics, like email opens and replies, to measure campaign effectiveness.
  • Sequence step optimization: Adjust and optimize sequence steps or schedules based on real-time insights, maximizing outreach performance.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Persistiq authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Persistiq connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Persistiq connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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