Find your key at: app.goagentcy.com → Settings → API KeysCowork is a tab inside Claude Desktop. Connectors are managed in Claude Desktop's Settings > Connectors and shared with Cowork — Cowork has its own Customize > Connectors panel in its left sidebar that surfaces the SAME account-wide connector pool, so you don’t re-add Agentcy inside Cowork. IMPORTANT: only REMOTE MCP connectors propagate this way. Local stdio MCP servers configured in claude_desktop_config.json are a separate mechanism and are NOT available in Cowork — Agentcy is remote so this doesn’t affect us, but worth knowing if you mix local + remote servers. Cowork itself is in research preview and limited to paid plans (Pro, Max, Team, Enterprise) — Free users can add custom connectors in Claude Desktop's Chat mode but cannot access Cowork. The same connector also propagates to Claude.ai Web, Claude Code, and Claude mobile.
