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 Stormboard account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to summarize all sticky notes on a board, add action items to a Stormboard project, list team members assigned to a board, 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 Stormboard account

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

For example, ask Claude to:

  • "Summarize all sticky notes on a board"
  • "Add action items to a Stormboard project"
  • "List team members assigned to a board"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

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

Troubleshooting

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

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

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

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

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

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

3. Why does the Stormboard authorization link not work?

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

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

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

The Stormboard connection can expire or lose permission.

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

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

Claude can manage the Stormboard connection for you.

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

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

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

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

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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