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

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

The Orshot MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Orshot account. It provides structured and secure access to your Studio templates, workspace brand assets, profile, and connected social accounts, so your agent can browse templates, inspect customization options, render images or PDFs, manage brand colors, and review social connections on your behalf.

  • Template discovery: Have your agent browse and filter the Studio templates available in your workspace.
  • Template review and customization planning: Let the agent inspect a template's pages and available modifications before preparing a render.
  • Image and PDF generation: Direct your agent to customize an owned Studio template and render the result as an image or PDF.
  • Brand asset management: Instruct your agent to list tagged brand assets, save new brand colors, or remove colors you no longer use.
  • Workspace and social account review: Have your agent review your Orshot profile, accessible workspaces, and connected social platforms, including connections that may need attention.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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