This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your Reply account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to list all active email campaigns this week, get contacts in your 'Leads Q3' list, show all available email templates, 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.

For example, ask Claude to:

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

The Reply MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Reply.io account. It provides structured and secure access to your sales engagement platform, so your agent can create and manage lists, fetch campaign schedules, organize contacts, and monitor outreach performance for you.

  • Personal list creation and management: Easily instruct your agent to create, organize, or delete personal contact lists to streamline your outreach workflow.
  • Contact organization and retrieval: Have your agent fetch contacts within specific lists, helping you target and personalize campaigns more effectively.
  • Campaign and schedule insights: Ask your agent to retrieve all campaign schedules or see which campaigns a specific contact belongs to, giving you up-to-date visibility into your outreach pipeline.
  • Email account and template discovery: Let your agent pull a list of available email accounts or fetch your personal, team, and community templates for quick access while composing new campaigns.
  • Blacklist monitoring and management: Direct your agent to retrieve the full list of blacklisted domains and emails, so you can ensure compliance and maintain deliverability standards with ease.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Reply authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Reply connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Reply connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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 Reply tools.

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 Reply data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
