4. Connect your Stackby account

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

For example, ask Cowork to:

  • "List rows from Stackby sales table"
  • "Add new lead to Stackby CRM"
  • "Update project status in Stackby tracker"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The Stackby MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Stackby account. It provides structured and secure access to your workspaces, stacks, tables, views, columns, and rows, so your agent can explore your data structure, find records, add rows, update information, and remove records on your behalf.

  • Workspace and stack discovery: Have your agent list your available workspaces and stacks to find the business data you need.
  • Table structure exploration: Let the agent review tables, views, columns, and column types before working with your records.
  • Targeted record retrieval: Instruct your agent to list or find rows using filters, selected views, or sorting by a chosen field.
  • Bulk row creation and updates: Direct your agent to add new records or update up to 10 existing rows at once.
  • Record cleanup: Have your agent delete up to 10 identified rows when outdated or unwanted data needs to be removed.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Stackby 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 Stackby 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.
