What is the BambooHR Alternative MCP Server?

  • Deep Profile Inspection — Fetch complete metadata, job titles, departments, and specific field details for any individual employee.
  • Time Off Tracking — Monitor and analyze time off requests, including status filtering (pending, approved) and date ranges.
  • Data Table Auditing — Access structured historical data such as job history, compensation, and other internal tables.
  • Custom Reporting — Generate targeted reports on the fly by specifying exactly which employee fields you need to analyze.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How do I list all active employees in my organization?

Use the list_employees tool. It retrieves the full company directory, providing a complete overview of active personnel.

02

Can I check the compensation history for a specific employee?

Yes! Use the get_employee_table tool with the employee's ID and specify 'compensation' as the table name to retrieve their full pay history.

03

How do I filter time off requests by their current status?

You can use the list_time_off_requests tool and provide a status like 'pending' or 'approved' as a parameter to narrow down the results.

04

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.

05

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.

06

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.

07

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.

08

Tools not appearing in Cursor

Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.

09

Server shows as disconnected

Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
