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 Servicem8 through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

What is the Servicem8 MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Servicem8 MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Servicem8 account. It provides structured and secure access to your job management system, so your agent can perform actions like creating jobs, managing notes and payments, listing clients, and retrieving templates on your behalf.

  • Job creation and management: Instruct your agent to create new jobs, add detailed job information, or update records, streamlining field service operations.
  • Automated note handling: Have your agent attach important notes to jobs or remove outdated notes to keep job records clean and up-to-date.
  • Payment processing and tracking: Let your agent record new job payments or archive payment records, ensuring accurate and timely invoicing.
  • Comprehensive client and asset retrieval: Ask your agent to pull complete lists of clients and assets for reporting, integrations, or inventory management.
  • Template and form discovery: Fetch available document templates and forms so your agent can prepare job paperwork or gather required information efficiently.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

With a standalone Servicem8 MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Servicem8 tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Servicem8 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 Servicem8 tools.

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Servicem8 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 Servicem8 data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
