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

The Alttext ai MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Alttext ai account. It provides structured and secure access to your image library and account, so your agent can retrieve images, generate and search alt text, update account settings, and manage your Alttext.ai workflow on your behalf.

• Automated image library browsing: Instantly fetch and paginate through your stored images, complete with their alt text and metadata, to keep track of your visual assets.
• Keyword-based image searches: Direct your agent to search your image collection and find specific images or alt text based on custom search terms or filters.
• Account monitoring and insights: Check your Alttext.ai account configuration, review current usage limits, and monitor your plan details or webhook settings—no manual dashboard visits needed.
• Account configuration management: Let your agent update your account details, such as webhook URLs or display names, to streamline your integration and notification setup.
