Details

From the project README

HR WORKS MCP by usefulapi

Use your HR WORKS account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. It reads persons, organization units, absences, job postings and applications, and it changes nothing. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.

Live endpoint: https://hrworks.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://hrworks.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http hrworks https://hrworks.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hrworks": {
      "url": "https://hrworks.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your HR WORKS credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/hrworks/

On first connect you provide the HR WORKS access key and secret access key of an API key pair. An HR WORKS API administrator creates the pair under Administrator → Basics → HRworks API, and the secret is shown only once. The server validates the pair and stores it per user. No keys go in config files.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
