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.

  2. 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “create Employee” can wait for the user, and “delete Department” can be denied outright.
  3. 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.
POLICY.TS
await arc0.policies.set('workable', {
  read: 'allow',
  write: 'ask',        // create_employee
  destructive: 'deny',  // delete_department

04 · AUTH AND DATA

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 →

07 · FAQ

Workable and Arc0, answered.

Q01

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.

Q02

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.

Q03

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.

Q04

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.

Q05

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.
