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

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

The Amcards MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Amcards account. It provides structured and secure access to your card library and contact list, so your agent can retrieve cards, manage contacts, monitor campaigns, and streamline customer engagement on your behalf.

  • Card library management: Instantly retrieve a list of all greeting cards in your Amcards account so you can review, organize, or select cards for campaigns.
  • Comprehensive contact retrieval: Ask your agent to fetch your contact list—including names, emails, and details—making it easy to personalize outreach or update records.
  • Filtered contact lookup: Find specific contacts by searching with filters like last name, first name, or email, allowing you to target the right recipients quickly.
  • Campaign preparation and monitoring: Let your agent pull card and contact data to support mailing campaigns, track card activity, and optimize your customer connection strategy.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

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

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