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 Tally account to Cowork via Composio Connect, enabling it to list all forms I created this month, download latest responses from your survey form, add a webhook to notify on new submission, and more such actions on your behalf without compromising your account security. ## Also integrate Tally with - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/claude-code) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/codex) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/tally/framework/crew-ai) ## Connect Tally to Claude Cowork ### Connecting Tally to Claude Cowork 1. Open Customize In Claude Desktop, click Customize in the left sidebar, then select Connectors and click the + icon at the top. 2. Add the Composio MCP server Click Add custom connector and paste in the Composio MCP server URL: ```bash https://connect.composio.dev/mcp ``` ## 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 Tally through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent. ## What is the Tally MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Tally MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Tally account. It provides structured and secure access to your forms and response data, so your agent can perform actions like creating forms, retrieving responses, managing webhooks, and automating data collection workflows on your behalf. - Automated form creation and management: Have your agent create new forms, update existing ones, or delete forms as needed—no manual setup required. - Seamless response collection and analysis: Instantly fetch all responses to any form, enabling real-time data analysis, exports, or notifications. - Detailed form insights and field discovery: Retrieve comprehensive details about a form’s configuration, fields, and settings to power dynamic workflows or audits. - Webhook automation and event monitoring: Set up and manage webhooks to trigger custom actions when new responses come in, and review delivery history for full visibility. - User account and access checks: Let your agent fetch authenticated user info to confirm account status or permissions before performing sensitive operations. ## Supported Tools | Tool slug | Name | Description | |---|---|---| | `TALLY_CREATE_FORM` | Create Form | Tool to create a new form. Use after preparing block definitions and optional settings. | | `TALLY_CREATE_WEBHOOK` | Create Webhook | Tool to create a new webhook for a form. Use after confirming you have the form ID and the callback URL. | | `TALLY_DELETE_FORM` | Delete Form | Tool to delete a specific form identified by its ID. Use after confirming the form should be permanently removed. | | `TALLY_DELETE_WEBHOOK` | Delete Webhook | Tool to delete a specific webhook. Use after confirming the webhook ID. | | `TALLY_GET_FORM_DETAILS` | Get Form Details | Tool to retrieve details of a specific form. Use when you need comprehensive form metadata by ID. Use after confirming the form ID to fetch its full configuration, blocks, and stats. | | `TALLY_GET_FORM_RESPONSES` | Get Form Responses | Tool to retrieve the responses of a specific form. Use after confirming the form ID and when paginated data is needed. | | `TALLY_GET_USER_INFO` | Get User Info | Tool to retrieve information about the authenticated user. Use when you need to confirm account-level details before proceeding. Returns account/workspace context only — not form-level access; follow up with TALLY_LIST_FORMS to verify form access. Confirm the returned workspace and user context match the intended account before creating or modifying resources, as acting on the wrong context places resources in an unintended account. Do not expose sensitive response fields (e.g., tokens) in user-visible output. | | `TALLY_GET_WEBHOOK_EVENTS` | Get Webhook Events | Tool to list events associated with a specific webhook. Use when you need to inspect delivery history after creating or listing a webhook. | | `TALLY_GET_WORKSPACE` | Get Workspace | Tool to retrieve a single workspace by its ID with associated members. Use when you need to get detailed information about a specific workspace. | | `TALLY_LIST_FORM_QUESTIONS` | List Form Questions | Tool to retrieve all questions from a specific form. Use when you need to list all questions and their structure after obtaining the form ID. | | `TALLY_LIST_FORMS` | List Forms | Tool to retrieve a paginated list of forms.

With a standalone Tally MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Tally tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Tally 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 Tally tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Tally while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Tally 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 Tally data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
