How to Use the Bilflo MCP in Claude Code

Q: How do I add the Bilflo MCP Server to Claude Code?

Run claude mcp add --transport http bilflo -- in your terminal. Use claude mcp list to verify the connection.

Q: Can I modify direct hire records using Claude Code?

No. The MCP exposes only read operations like getdirecthire and listdirecthires to prevent accidental data changes.

Q: How is my Bilflo payroll data secured?

All timecard and payroll details queried via gettimecard travel over an encrypted, ephemeral tunnel. Vinkius operates a zero-trust architecture, meaning your sensitive financial and staffing data is never stored on our servers.

Perplexity

Pipe Bilflo timecard data using this MCP Server

Claude Code fetches timesheet details via `list_timecards` and pipes the output directly to command-line tools. The agent formats the raw JSON so you can filter unpaid hours instantly. This terminal-first setup replaces slow web dashboards. You get raw staffing metrics right in your shell, ready for custom command-line processing.

Script automated compliance checks

Claude Code automates compliance checks by passing `list_contractors` data to your local bash scripts. The agent checks active files to ensure all background checks are up to date. This MCP Server lets you run automated audits from your terminal. You can hook it into cron jobs to flag expired contracts every Monday morning.

Verify placement records via CLI

Claude Code queries active accounts using `list_placements` without making you open a web browser. It extracts contract terms directly in your active terminal session. It keeps your command-line workflow fast. You query staffing accounts, verify billing rates, and close the terminal in seconds.
