Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted Planerio connector that lets an assistant read shifts, staffing requirements, staff, employees, absences and vacation days.

What you can do
  • List planned shifts between two dates, with employee, workplace, location, tags and change tracking
  • List shift cards defining staffing requirements, including qualifications and pre-planned employees
  • List staff supply and employee master data such as shift groups, work schedules, supervisor and cost center
  • List absence periods with status and type, and get vacation day budgets per employee for a year
  • Check monthly tool-call usage, request a missing feature, and manage or cancel a paid plan
When to use it
Useful when you want to ask an assistant questions about Planerio workforce scheduling in plain language, such as who works the night shift next week, who is absent, or which shift groups still have open staffing requirements.
Requirements
Remote MCP endpoint, no local install. Sign-in is via OAuth; on first connect you supply your Planerio address, the technical login user and password, and a shift group token created by a Planerio admin. No keys go in the client config. A free tier allows 50 tool calls per month.
Before you install
The server handles personal employee data, including date of birth and contact details, so ask only for what a task needs. Meta tools can start a paid subscription through a payment link, change plans with an immediate price-difference charge, or cancel with no refund for the current period. Planerio credentials and the shift group token are entered at login and stored per user.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Planerio MCP by usefulapi in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.usefulapi%2Fplanerio/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

README

Planerio MCP by usefulapi

Use your Planerio account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Read shifts, staffing requirements, staff, employees, absences and vacation days. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.

Live endpoint: https://planerio.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://planerio.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http planerio https://planerio.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
json
{  "mcpServers": {    "planerio": {      "url": "https://planerio.usefulapi.io/mcp"    }  }}

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Planerio credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/planerio/

On first connect you provide the Planerio address (the part before .planer.io, for example example), the Technical login: user and Technical login: password from your Planerio account manager, and the Shift group token that a Planerio admin creates in Admin, Einstellungen, box Planerio-Schnittstelle. The server validates it and stores it per user. No keys go in config files.

Pricing

PlanPriceLimit
Free$050 tool calls / month
Pro (per user)$9/mo or $90/yr (2 months free)10,000 tool calls / month
Pro+ (per user)$39/mo or $390/yr (2 months free)100,000 tool calls / month

Each paid plan covers this server only. Ask your AI to run planerio_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with planerio_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with planerio_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].
