Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant read Breathe HR employee, absence, sickness and leave data, and create, approve or reject leave requests.

What it does
A hosted MCP server for the Breathe HR platform. Read tools cover account details, departments, divisions, locations, working patterns, holiday allowances, other leave reasons, employees, holiday years with allowance balances, absences, leave requests, sickness records, salaries, bonuses, benefits, employee jobs, training courses, expense claims, expenses and change requests. Write tools create, approve and reject leave requests. Meta tools report usage, request a feature, and manage a Pro subscription.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to answer HR questions from Breathe HR data, such as who is absent, remaining holiday allowance, or sickness history, or when it should file and act on leave requests. It suits teams already running Breathe HR who want conversational access instead of the web UI.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint; no local install. Connect with the server URL only. Sign-in is by OAuth, and the login page asks for your own Breathe HR credentials. No API key or Authorization header is added to the client config. Network access is required.
Before you install
Write tools create, approve and reject leave requests, so an assistant can change HR records; clients should confirm them. The OAuth login page collects Breathe HR credentials, and the server reads sensitive HR data including salaries, bonuses, benefits and sickness records. The free tier allows 100 tool calls per month; Pro is $9/mo or $90/yr per user, billed through a Stripe Checkout link, with no refund for the current period on cancellation.
