4. Connect your Botster account

Back in Cowork, ask the agent to connect to Botster or give it any Botster-related task.

For example, ask Cowork to:

  • "Run competitor pricing collection bot"
  • "Check latest Botster job status"
  • "Summarize structured results from Botster"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

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

The Botster MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Botster account. It provides structured and secure access to your bots, jobs, credit balance, and run results, so your agent can find bots, estimate costs, launch jobs, monitor progress, and retrieve collected data on your behalf.

  • Bot discovery and cost planning: Have your agent search your available bots and calculate the credit cost of a planned launch before starting it.
  • Bot launches and job restarts: Direct your agent to launch a selected bot or restart an existing job when you need fresh data.
  • Job monitoring and credit checks: Let the agent review your jobs, inspect their current status, and check your available credit balance before running more work.
  • Structured result retrieval: Instruct your agent to fetch the complete collected results from a finished bot run for analysis or use in another workflow.
  • Job and run cleanup: Have your agent archive or restore jobs, delete individual runs, or permanently remove jobs you no longer need.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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

A lot of students tell us that the moment their connected tools start talking to each other inside Opennote feels almost magical. The agent just knows them, and it's immensely helped keep new users on the platform.

We chose Composio over Pipedream because it delivered depth where it mattered — niche tools and tricky edge cases other platforms simply ignored. That gave us confidence to scale without compromising.

As a solo builder, shipping fast is life or death. The only way I can outcompete incumbents is by outmanoeuvring them. Getting bogged down managing agent auth would have been a death sentence.

Before Composio, adding tool integrations was slow and resource-intensive. Each one could take weeks of engineering time, and maintaining them meant constantly keeping up with API changes.
