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

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

The Scrape do MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Scrape do account. It provides structured and secure access to robust web scraping tools, so your agent can perform actions like scraping dynamic pages, managing sessions, setting custom headers or proxies, and extracting structured data from any website on your behalf.

  • Dynamic page scraping with headless browsers: Retrieve fully rendered HTML content from JavaScript-heavy or protected websites by leveraging advanced browser emulation and proxy rotation.
  • Custom scraping session management: Set device type, cookies, wait times, and custom headers to imitate different users, maintain sessions, or access device-specific content for tailored data extraction.
  • Proxy and anti-bot bypass control: Enable super or proxy modes to utilize residential, mobile, or datacenter proxies, helping your agent bypass strict anti-bot systems and geo-restrictions seamlessly.
  • Targeted resource filtering: Block specific URLs like ads or analytics scripts during scraping to increase speed, avoid distractions, and improve privacy.
  • Account usage and statistics retrieval: Access real-time usage stats, subscription status, and remaining request limits so your agent can monitor scraping quotas and avoid interruptions.

How to build Scrape do MCP Agent with another framework

FAQ

What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Scrape do MCP?

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

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

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