Workable for AI agents
Workable is hiring and HR software covering recruiting, candidates, and employee records, used by talent teams managing the full hiring pipeline. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in Workable.
Get candidates for a job
Pull candidates in the pipeline for a specific job, a read-only status check.
Create an employee record
Add a new hire's employee record once they've accepted an offer.
Confirm before deleting a department
Check with the user before deleting a department, since jobs and employees may reference it.
37 Workable actions, graded by risk.
Every Workable action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

Workable in three steps.
- 01Your users connect WorkableThey sign in to Workable on Arc0 Connect, under your brand, and approve the access you ask for.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create Employee” can wait for the user, and “delete Department” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Workable through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('workable', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // create_employee destructive: 'deny', // delete_department }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Workable connects.
Users sign in to Workable on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Workable OAuth app, or bring your own so the Workable consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
The same Workable connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

Use Workable from any agent.
Workable and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Workable with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Workable to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Workable actions you allow.
How do users connect Workable?
Users sign in to Workable on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Workable OAuth app, or bring your own so the Workable consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
Which Workable actions can my agent take?
37 in total: 25 read, 9 write and 3 destructive, such as “create Employee”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Workable?
Yes. Actions like “delete Department” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call Workable too?
Yes. The same Workable connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Workable into your agent.
Your users connect Workable once, under your brand. Your agent gets 37 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
