Omni HR MCP connector

The Omni HR connector brings expense approvals, review cycles, attendance summaries, compensation events and admin forms into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and the Elaichi Agent, so your team can ask about them in plain language inside their own access.

  • How it connects. Connects with an API key. 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.

From answering questions to doing the work

A person no longer has to ask. A trigger starts the work, inside the same permissions and the same audit log as everything else. Automations and live dashboards are launching soon, on the Black plan.

Automations

A schedule starts the work, a person approves.

Expense approvals are fetched, grouped, drafted into a digest, approved, then posted back to Omni HR.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Omni HR to Claude?

Two steps. In Elaichi, choose Omni HR and paste the API key from your Omni HR account, since Omni HR connects with an API key and there is 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 with your Elaichi account and Omni HR is available in the conversation.

Does Omni HR work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Omni HR 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 Omni HR once and every client picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my Omni HR data?

It can list open expense approvals and reimbursements, show active review cycles, pull attendance summaries and timesheets, report on compensation events and history, list celebration events and read admin form submissions from Omni HR. It can also create companies when a new entity joins the group. Short, concrete asks such as "open expense approvals over 500" get better results than long paragraphs.

Does connecting Omni HR give the AI access to everything in my workspace?

No. The agent only sees what the Omni HR API key it is working through is allowed to see, and every person signs in to Elaichi as themselves so their calls are their own. Elaichi can narrow that access further with restrictions, and it can never widen it beyond what Omni HR already permits.

Can my team share one Omni HR connection?

Yes. One person connects Omni HR in Elaichi and shares the connection with a team, and nobody else ever handles the API key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the actual person behind every Omni HR request.

Can I stop an agent from creating or changing things in Omni HR?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow reading Omni HR expense approvals and review cycles while blocking the ability to create companies. A restricted action is never advertised to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor, so no prompt can reach it.

What happens to an Omni HR connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding that person in Elaichi ends their access to Omni HR through every client at once. A shared Omni HR connection keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you want the connection gone entirely, disconnect it once in Elaichi and it disappears from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and the Elaichi Agent together.

Does the Omni HR MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Omni HR is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.
