## 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 Remove bg account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to remove background from this product photo, make a transparent PNG from your profile picture, check how many remove.bg credits I have, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.

## 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 Remove bg through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

## What is the Remove bg MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Remove bg MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Remove bg account. It provides structured and secure access to powerful image background removal features, so your agent can perform actions like instantly removing backgrounds from photos, customizing backgrounds, and checking account usage details on your behalf.
- Automated background removal from images: Instantly remove backgrounds from product shots, profile pics, or any image using advanced AI—all through your agent.
- Custom background application: Let the agent swap backgrounds or apply transparent backgrounds for marketing, e-commerce, or social media needs.
- Account credit and usage monitoring: Have your agent check current credit balance and usage stats so you always know how many removals you have left.
- Seamless integration with creative workflows: Connect background removal directly into photo editing, listing creation, or design processes for fast, hands-off automation.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Remove bg MCP?

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

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Remove bg while using Tool Router?

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