4. Connect your UniFi account

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

For example, ask Cowork to:

  • "Summarize internet health across UniFi sites"
  • "List offline devices in Site Manager"
  • "Review SD-WAN configurations for each site"

It will prompt you to authenticate and authorize access.

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

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

The UniFi MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your UniFi account. It provides structured and secure access to your Site Manager inventory, internet health metrics, and SD-WAN configurations, so your agent can review hosts, list sites and devices, assess internet performance, and monitor SD-WAN status on your behalf.

  • Host and site inventory: Have your agent list the UniFi hosts and sites associated with your account, then retrieve details about a specific host.
  • Managed device visibility: Let the agent list UniFi devices managed by hosts where your account is an owner or super admin.
  • Internet health monitoring: Direct your agent to review ISP performance across accessible sites for a selected time range.
  • Focused ISP analysis: Instruct your agent to query internet performance metrics for selected host and site pairs.
  • SD-WAN oversight: Have your agent list SD-WAN configurations, inspect their topology and settings, and check deployment, WAN, tunnel, warning, and error status.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which UniFi 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 UniFi 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.
