New Hire Onboarding Tasks

mcp-onboarding

In the official MCP Registry (io.github.theluckystrike/onboarding). New-hire onboarding as role-based task templates, with a dated checklist per hire that HR and the manager both read.

The one rule that decides everything else

If somebody edits the checklist afterwards, adds a step or deletes one, every run already in progress keeps the list it started with, and the version it was copied from is recorded on the run.

That is not a caching convenience. A checklist somebody ticked and signed has to be the list they actually saw. A run that read its steps live from the checklist would mean a signed handover certificate for eleven checks when the person signing it saw ten, with no field in the record showing that it had happened. It also means deleting a checklist leaves its runs readable and complete, which is what you want the year afterwards when somebody asks what was checked.

Two smaller rules follow from it:

• Nothing derived is stored. The pass, fail and outstanding counts, the percentage, and whether a run can be signed off are worked out on every call from the run's own steps. A stored "complete" flag is a fact about the afternoon somebody last looked, and complete here is a reading: it appears when the last step is answered and goes away again when one is put back to pending.
• Not applicable is not a pass. na counts as ANSWERED and never as passed. A step that was looked at and dismissed is a different fact from a step that passed, and merging the two is how a checklist reports full marks for a job where half the steps did not apply.

What blocks a signature

A required step that is unanswered, a required step that failed, an unanswered optional step, or a run with no steps. force: true signs anyway, and the exceptions stay on the record and print on the report under "Signed with exceptions". They are not lost, and they are not silent.

Tools

There is also a resource, checklist://contract, carrying the snapshot rule, the item states, the run status machine, what blocks a sign-off and where this server writes; and a prompt, run_the_checklist, that walks the whole job in order.

Free vs Pro

The meter is on how many DIFFERENT checklists you keep, not on how many jobs you check. A trade with one pre-delivery check, one handover sheet and one snag list runs its whole year inside the free tier. Runs are never capped, because capping the running of a checklist would cap the only thing a checklist is for. Deleting a checklist frees a slot.

Privacy

All data stays local, in ${XDG_DATA_HOME:-~/.local/share}/mcp-servers/checklist/. There is no network call anywhere in this server, no API key, and no account. The only file it reads that it does not own is the shared business profile, for the name and address at the top of a printed report, and it never writes to it.
