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

The Uploadcare MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Uploadcare account. It provides structured and secure access to your file storage, processing, and delivery pipeline, so your agent can perform actions like listing files, retrieving file info, managing webhooks, rotating images, and handling file metadata on your behalf.

• Comprehensive file listing and retrieval: Ask your agent to list all files stored in your Uploadcare project, filter by criteria, or fetch detailed metadata for any file.
• Direct file download and sharing: Effortlessly generate secure, temporary download links for your files so you can share them or integrate with other services.
• Automated image processing: Let your agent rotate images by 90, 180, or 270 degrees, making quick edits or transformations without manual intervention.
• Webhook management for event automation: Easily create, list, or delete webhooks so your agent can subscribe to file events and enable real-time notifications or integrations.
• Metadata and group management: Enable your agent to update or delete file metadata and organize files into groups for streamlined file handling and workflows.
