HRIS

Lucca MCP connector

The Lucca connector brings employees, employments, departments, legal entities, job positions and probationary periods into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and any MCP client, so each person can look up Lucca HR records inside their own access with every call logged.

Connect on Elaichi How to connect

  • How it connects. App credentials. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Lucca to Claude?

Two steps. In Elaichi, choose Lucca and enter your Lucca app credentials; there is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude open Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Sign in to Elaichi when Claude asks, and Lucca is ready to use.

Does Lucca work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Lucca is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Lucca once and every client you sign in to can use it.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Lucca data?

With Lucca connected, an agent can look up employees, their employments and personal records, and the structure around them: departments, legal entities, business establishments, job positions, professions, occupation categories, job qualifications, probationary periods and employment templates. That means questions like who is in the Paris establishment, whose probationary period ends this month, or which job positions exist in a department get answered from live Lucca records. Because Lucca has many lookups, short concrete asks such as list departments work better than long sentences.

Does connecting Lucca give the AI everything in my HR system?

No. When you connect Lucca through Elaichi the agent works inside your own Lucca access, so it sees only the employees, personal records and entities you are allowed to see. Elaichi can narrow that further with restrictions per team or per person, and it can never widen access beyond what Lucca already grants you.

Can my team share one Lucca connection?

Yes. One person connects Lucca in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the Lucca credentials. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so every request to Lucca is recorded in the audit log under their own name.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Lucca?

The Lucca connector in Elaichi is read-only today: it looks up employees, employments and organization records and does not create, edit or delete anything in Lucca. On top of that, restrictions in Elaichi work per action, and any action you block is never advertised to Claude, ChatGPT or any other client, so no prompt can reach it.

What happens to a Lucca connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding a person in Elaichi ends their access to Lucca through every client at once, with no separate steps in Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor. If they had shared a Lucca connection, it keeps working for everyone else on the team. When you want Lucca gone entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from every client.
