Introduction

Cowork is Anthropic's AI agent for knowledge work. Think of it as Claude Code for everything else. It works autonomously with your computer, local files, and applications to accomplish complex tasks.

This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your Procfu account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to find new entries in updated Google Sheet, delete a specific file from Google Drive, generate random test users for QA, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.

Also integrate Procfu with

4. Connect your Procfu account

Back in Cowork, ask the agent to connect to Procfu or give it any Procfu-related task.

For example, ask Cowork to:

  • "Find new entries in updated Google Sheet"
  • "Delete a specific file from Google Drive"
  • "Generate random test users for QA"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

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

The Procfu MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Procfu account. It provides structured and secure access to advanced Podio automations, letting your agent compare arrays, generate test data, interact with Google Drive and Sheets, and even harness OpenAI for creative tasks—all on your behalf.

  • Automated data comparison and manipulation: Have your agent find differences, additions, deletions, or intersections between two JSON arrays to quickly analyze data changes or synchronize lists.
  • Google Drive file management: Direct your agent to delete files or folders from your Google Drive, streamlining cleanup and organization without manual effort.
  • Dynamic test data and placeholder generation: Instantly generate dummy emails, numbers, images, or addresses for testing, prototyping, or populating demo environments.
  • Retrieve Google Sheets data: Ask your agent to pull contents from a specific Google Sheet as an array, making it easy to process, analyze, or migrate spreadsheet data.
  • Conversational AI and image generation: Let your agent query OpenAI GPT for answers or generate new images from text prompts, extending automation into creative and cognitive tasks.

FAQ

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

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

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

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