Tools Discovery →What is the RECRU MCP Server?
A RECRU MCP server lets AI agents read and write RECRU data through the Model Context Protocol — Anthropic's open standard for connecting LLMs to external tools. StackOne's RECRU MCP server ships with 65 pre-built actions, fully extensible via the Connector Builder — plus managed authentication, prompt injection defense, observability, and agent execution runtime. Connect it from MCP clients like Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Goose, and VS Code, or from agent frameworks like OpenAI Agents SDK, LangChain, and Vercel AI SDK.
All RECRU MCP Tools
Every action from RECRU's API, ready for your agent. Create, read, update, and delete — scoped to exactly what you need.
