Introduction

Claude is Anthropic's AI assistant, available on the web, in the desktop app, and on mobile. Cowork is its agent for knowledge work, and it runs on all of those surfaces too. Connected to your apps, Claude can work with your files and services to accomplish complex tasks on your behalf.

This guide walks you through the easiest and most secure way to connect your Securitytrails account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to show all IPs linked to acme.com, fetch SSL certificate history for example.com, run SQL query for hosts in 192.168.0.0/16, 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.

3. Connect your Securitytrails account

Back in Claude, ask it to connect to Securitytrails or give it any Securitytrails-related task.

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Show all IPs linked to acme.com"
  • "Fetch SSL certificate history for example.com"
  • "Run SQL query for hosts in 192.168.0.0/16"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Securitytrails MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Securitytrails account. It provides structured and secure access to domain and IP intelligence data, so your agent can perform actions like retrieving domain details, analyzing IP associations, running custom SQL queries, and managing static asset rules on your behalf.

  • Domain and DNS intelligence: Instantly fetch detailed information about any domain, including current DNS record statistics and associated data for robust cybersecurity analysis.
  • SSL certificate retrieval: Access current and historical SSL certificate details for any hostname, helping you track certificate changes or potential vulnerabilities over time.
  • IP and company association search: Discover all IP addresses linked to a specific company domain, or run advanced IP searches using custom DSL queries for threat hunting and investigation.
  • Automated SQL-powered investigations: Execute SQL queries across hosts and IPs to extract targeted intelligence and spot trends or anomalies in your attack surface data.
  • Bulk static asset management: Add, update, or remove up to 1000 static asset rules at once to quickly adapt your security policies across projects.

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Securitytrails authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Securitytrails connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Securitytrails connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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