open-greenhouse-mcp
Production-ready MCP server for Greenhouse, designed for recruiters and hiring teams.
Most Greenhouse MCP servers mirror the API endpoint by endpoint. This one is built for recruiting teams: safe defaults, role-based profiles, and workflow tools that turn multi-step API operations into single actions.
