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

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

The Phantombuster MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Phantombuster account. It provides structured and secure access to your web automation and data extraction tools, so your agent can perform actions like running agents, fetching reports, exporting usage data, and managing your automations on your behalf.

  • Agent management and monitoring: Instantly list, audit, or fetch details about all your Phantombuster agents and see which are active, deleted, or grouped together.
  • Data extraction and export: Have your agent export detailed usage reports or download CSVs of agent and container activity for analytics and compliance.
  • Automation workflow insight: Get visibility into branches, containers, and deployment differences—helping you track automation changes and resource usage.
  • Organization and account overview: Let your agent retrieve comprehensive organization information or check current API key associations for security and collaboration.
  • IP geolocation support: Enable your agent to look up the physical location of specific IP addresses for auditing or compliance checks.

How to build Phantombuster MCP Agent with another framework

FAQ

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

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

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

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