Teamtailor MCP connector
The Teamtailor connector lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client create and update jobs, candidates, applications and notes in your Teamtailor account, with every action tied to the person who asked for it and recorded in an audit log.
-
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.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How do I connect Teamtailor to Claude?
In Elaichi, choose Teamtailor and paste in an API key from your Teamtailor settings. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then open Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp as the endpoint. Sign in with your Elaichi account and Teamtailor is available in the conversation.
Does Teamtailor work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?
Yes. Once Teamtailor 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 Teamtailor once and every client picks it up.
What can an AI agent actually do with my Teamtailor data?
With Teamtailor connected, an agent can create a job and update its details, add a candidate and attach their CV or other files, open a job application and update it as the candidate moves through the process, and write, edit, read or delete notes on a candidate. In practice that means drafting a job ad and posting it, logging a referral, or leaving interview feedback, all from a chat.
Does connecting Teamtailor give the AI access to my whole account?
No. The Teamtailor connection carries only the access of the account that connected it, and every person using it signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so their actions are recorded under their own name. Elaichi can narrow what the agent is allowed to do in Teamtailor, for example allowing notes but not job changes, and it can never grant more than the connected account already has.
Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in Teamtailor?
Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow an agent to create and read notes in Teamtailor while blocking note deletion or job updates. A blocked action is never shown to Claude, ChatGPT or any other client at all, so no prompt, accidental or otherwise, can reach it.
What happens to a Teamtailor connection when someone leaves?
When you offboard someone in Elaichi, their access to Teamtailor through Elaichi ends immediately. A connection shared with the team keeps working for everyone else. If you disconnect Teamtailor in Elaichi, it disappears from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and every other client at once.
