What is the Loxo MCP server?

Enables AI assistants to interact with the Loxo recruitment platform API for managing candidates, jobs, and activities. That is what the loxo mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.

The short version

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives Claude direct access to the Loxo recruitment platform. Version 1.7.0 provides 34 tools covering the full recruiter workflow: searching and researching candidates, managing job pipelines, tracking activity and communication, working with companies, and maintaining candidate records. Tool descriptions guide Claude to surface recruiter intake notes and intel-rich activity history — so it can answer "where did we leave things with this candidate?" without you having to dig.

The tools it exposes

The server publishes 1 tool. What each one is for:

  • Pagination — The Pagination tool exposed by this server

Getting it running

The server ships on npm as @smithery/cli, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.

What it needs from you

Configuration is passed through the environment: LOXO_API_KEY, LOXO_AGENCY_SLUG, LOXO_DOMAIN, LOXO_DEFAULT_OWNER_ID. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

How it compares

Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Loxo's toolset — Pagination — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by tbensonwest; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against Loxo's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Things to watch

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.
