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 Sanity account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to list recent Sanity posts needing review, create draft product page in Sanity, update author bio across Sanity articles, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security.

Also integrate Sanity with

4. Connect your Sanity account

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

For example, ask Cowork to:

  • "List recent Sanity posts needing review"
  • "Create draft product page in Sanity"
  • "Update author bio across Sanity articles"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

That's it. Composio's tools are now available in Cowork, and your Sanity 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 Sanity through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

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

The Sanity MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Sanity account. It provides structured and secure access so your agent can perform Sanity operations on your behalf.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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

A lot of students tell us that the moment their connected tools start talking to each other inside Opennote feels almost magical. The agent just knows them, and it's immensely helped keep new users on the platform.

We chose Composio over Pipedream because it delivered depth where it mattered — niche tools and tricky edge cases other platforms simply ignored. That gave us confidence to scale without compromising.

As a solo builder, shipping fast is life or death. The only way I can outcompete incumbents is by outmanoeuvring them. Getting bogged down managing agent auth would have been a death sentence.

Before Composio, adding tool integrations was slow and resource-intensive. Each one could take weeks of engineering time, and maintaining them meant constantly keeping up with API changes.
