Workable MCP server

What the model can do

Recruiting from Workable: jobs by state with department and location, a job's description and pipeline stages, candidates by job, stage or recency with their stage and status, a candidate's profile, experience and activity timeline, members and external recruiters, the pipeline stages and disqualification reasons. Never reads salary. When you ask it can comment on, move, rate, tag, disqualify or reinstate a candidate, add a candidate to a job, and copy or relocate a candidate to another job.

Acts, when you ask

These change something in Workable. The model is told to use them only when you ask for exactly that, and each one is granted by name: per team on a shared connection, by the owner on a personal one.

• workable_add_commentAdds a comment to a candidate's timeline in Workable, where the hiring team for that job reads it; the candidate never sees it.

Connect it

First connect Workable on Dashboard → Connections, then add Memtro to your client once. The Workable tools appear alongside the tools of everything else you have connected; nothing is configured per connector.

Who may use it

The key identifies the person, and the server offers that person the tools they may use everywhere else in Memtro. A shared Workable connection is used by the teams an administrator granted it to, tool by tool, on the Permissions page; a personal connection is used by its owner alone, and its tools that act stay off until the owner allows them. See Teams and permissions and Connectors.

Questions

Is this an official Workable MCP server?

No. It is Memtro's MCP server with Memtro's Workable connector behind it: the connector reads Workable through its API with the credentials you connect on Dashboard → Connections, and Workable publishes nothing here. The same endpoint carries every other system you connect and Memtro's memory tools.

What does it cost?

Nothing on top of Memtro. One price per organisation by its number of users, from $50 a month for up to 10 users after a 7-day free trial, with every connector, the MCP server, jobs and memory included. You bring your own model keys.

Can it change anything in Workable?

Only when you ask, and only what it has been granted: add a comment to a candidate's timeline; move a candidate to another stage of their job; disqualify a candidate (rejected or withdrew); reinstate a disqualified candidate; rate a candidate; add or remove a candidate's tags; add a candidate to a job; copy a candidate to another job; relocate a candidate to another job (the original is removed). Every other tool reads, searches or lists. An administrator grants each acting tool by name per team, and a personal connection acts only after its owner allows it.

Which clients work?

Any MCP client that speaks Streamable HTTP: Claude Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, OpenCode, Codex, Zed, Windsurf, Cline and the Anthropic and OpenAI SDKs. There is no local process to run; the server is remote and authenticated with your key.
