4. Connect your ImageRouter account

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

For example, ask Cowork to:

  • "Generate product hero images from briefs"
  • "Create short videos for campaigns"
  • "Check ImageRouter credits before batch generation"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

That's it. Composio's tools are now available in Cowork, and your ImageRouter 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 ImageRouter through MCP without you sharing account credentials directly with the agent.

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

The ImageRouter MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your ImageRouter account. It provides structured and secure access to ImageRouter's generative models, model details, and account credits, so your agent can generate images, edit images, create videos, produce text, and review usage on your behalf.

  • Image generation: Have your agent turn a detailed text prompt into an image using a selected ImageRouter model.
  • Image editing: Direct your agent to transform or inpaint one or more existing images provided as web links or embedded image data.
  • Video creation: Let the agent generate videos from written prompts, with optional images supplied as visual inputs.
  • Text and multimodal responses: Instruct your agent to create text completions or responses based on plain text and structured multimodal input.
  • Model and credit checks: Have your agent discover available models, review their capabilities, supported options, and pricing, then check remaining credits and usage before starting paid work.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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