## 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 Taskrabbit account to Claude via Composio Connect, enabling it to find same-day cleaners near your apartment, book handyman for mounting TV, compare moving help prices this weekend, 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.

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

The Taskrabbit MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to Taskrabbit. It provides structured and secure access to local service information and booking links, so your agent can find supported services, check local availability, compare pricing, surface scoping questions, and generate pre-filled booking links on your behalf.
- Local service discovery: Have your agent list Taskrabbit services available in your location, including home repair, moving, cleaning, and handyman help.
- Availability and pricing checks: Let the agent check whether a chosen service is available locally and retrieve its current pricing information.
- Task scoping guidance: Instruct your agent to surface the relevant questions needed to clarify the scope of your task.
- Pre-filled booking links: Direct your agent to generate a Taskrabbit link with your selected service details ready for booking.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `TASKRABBIT_MCP_CHECK_SERVICE_AVAILABILITY` | Check service availability | Check availability, pricing, and scoping questions for a service in a location. Provide either city + state OR postalCode to specify the location. When the response includes topTaskers, render each tasker as a visual card (not a plain list or table) with a circular avatar showing their initials, name, rating, review count, and description. |
| `TASKRABBIT_MCP_GENERATE_DEEP_LINK` | Generate deep link | Generate a pre-filled Taskrabbit booking deep link using task template ID. |

## Troubleshooting

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

The connector can show as connected, but Claude must use it in each Taskrabbit conversation.
- Click + at the lower left of the chat, or type /.
- Hover Connectors.
- Turn on Composio.
- Ask Claude to connect to Taskrabbit again.

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

Claude can show Couldn't reach the MCP server or Authorization with the MCP server failed when you add the connector for Taskrabbit.
- 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 Taskrabbit.
- If it fails again, send the error and the ofid_ reference id to support@composio.dev.

### 3. Why does the Taskrabbit authorization link not work?

The Composio connector is one server. Your Taskrabbit account connects separately when Claude asks for it.
- If the browser does not open, or the link expires, ask Claude to retry the Taskrabbit connection.
- Composio creates a fresh Taskrabbit authorization link.
- Open that link in your browser and finish the Taskrabbit sign-in.

### 4. Why do Taskrabbit actions fail after they worked before?

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

### 5. How do I switch to a different Taskrabbit account?

Claude can manage the Taskrabbit connection for you.
- Ask Claude to disconnect or delete the current Taskrabbit account.
- Ask Claude to connect Taskrabbit again.
- Open the new Composio authorization link for Taskrabbit.
- Sign in with the other Taskrabbit account in the browser.
- After the account connects, ask Claude to retry the Taskrabbit task.

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

The connector belongs to your Claude account, so your Taskrabbit connection works in Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork.
- In Claude Desktop, open Customize > Connectors.
- Next to Composio, click ⋮ and click Clear cache.
- If Taskrabbit 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 Taskrabbit.

## Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK

The Taskrabbit MCP server connects Claude Web, Desktop, and Cowork to your Taskrabbit account through Composio. Once connected, Claude can use the available Taskrabbit tools and triggers to complete tasks on your behalf.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Taskrabbit MCP?

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

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Taskrabbit while using Tool Router?

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