Perplexity

Export overtime and timesheet data via Claude Code

Claude Code uses the Hurma MCP to run `export_overtimes` and dump timesheet data directly to your stdout or a local CSV. You do not have to click through clunky HR dashboards to pull payroll numbers. The CLI agent reads your company structure using `list_departments` to filter the export. This makes it simple to pipe overtime logs into your existing accounting scripts.

Script your hiring pipeline from the terminal

Claude Code uses `list_candidates` to fetch active applicants and manage your recruitment workflow from the shell. The terminal agent interacts with this MCP Server to map candidates to open jobs without a GUI. When a new resume hits your inbox, pipe it directly to Claude Code to run `create_candidate`. The agent automatically places them in the correct hiring tier via `list_vacancy_stages`.

Check employee records and leave balances instantly

Using this MCP Server, Claude Code calls `list_employees` to verify active staff and permissions during access reviews. The agent fetches specific profiles with `get_employee_details` in milliseconds. Need to check who is out today? The agent queries `list_out_of_office` to output a clean list of absent employees, helping you manage on-call rotations from your terminal.
