Breathe HR

Query employees, absences and departments in Breathe HR — and file leave requests.

LABSCO SUMMARY

If you deploy it remotely, set the bearer token before you open the port.

Authentication on the hosted path is enforced only when MCP_API_KEY is present — convenient for local development, and a wide-open HR database if you carry that default onto a public URL. Generate a random value and set it in the platform's environment before the first deploy. Locally, the single API key is the whole access story, and it inherits whatever permissions Breathe HR granted it. This is a community project and is not officially supported by Breathe HR.

What it is

A Breathe HR server covering the people data an HR question usually needs: who works here, who is off, what the org structure looks like — plus the ability to submit a leave request rather than only read them.

What you get

  • list_employees returns a paginated list with filters, get_employee returns one in detail, and search_employees finds people by query
  • list_absences returns absence records with date and type filtering, and get_employee_absences narrows to one person
  • create_leave_request submits a new request
  • get_departments lists the organisational structure and get_account_info returns company account details

Requirements

An API key from your Breathe HR account — Settings, then Integrations, then API. Install from a checkout with uv: clone the repo and uv sync; the client launches python -m breathe_hr_mcp through uv run --directory, with the key in BREATHE_HR_API_KEY. Python 3.12+. A remote deployment is also documented, running under uvicorn behind an MCP_API_KEY bearer token — note that when that variable is unset the deployed server accepts unauthenticated requests.

Setup effort

One command plus a key — curl -X POST https://<YOUR_SERVICE>.onrender.com/mcp/ -H Content-Type: application/json -H Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_MCP_API_KEY> -d @-, then supply credentials
