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 Beach Day API through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

What is the Beach Day API MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Beach Day API MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Beach Day API account. It provides structured and secure access to beach profiles, conditions, scores, rules, amenities, tide predictions, and country coverage, so your agent can find beaches, compare scores, check current conditions, review facilities, and plan around tides on your behalf.

  • Beach search and discovery: Have your agent find beaches by name, country, or state or province.
  • Conditions and score comparisons: Let the agent review current and recent beach conditions, including weather, water quality, ocean conditions, and available tide data, or rank beaches by their current Beach Day Score.
  • Rules and amenity checks: Direct your agent to check activity rules, facilities, and accessibility amenities before you visit a beach.
  • Tide planning: Instruct your agent to retrieve up to seven days of tide predictions for a beach and help you choose when to go.
  • Beach profiles and country coverage: Have your agent pull a full beach profile or list covered countries by their number of available beaches.
