What you can do with Greenhouse

Each of these is one operation on one endpoint, available both as a workflow step and as a tool an AI agent can call on its own. Nothing bundles several operations into one action, so what a run did stays readable afterwards.

Most endpoints run on the free plan. A few, mainly the ones that publish on your behalf, need a paid plan.

Greenhouse API rate limits

Rate limits vary by endpoint and plan. Limits are per 10 seconds as indicated by X-RateLimit-Limit response header.

These are the limits Greenhouse documents, not ones LiveContext measured. They can change and often depend on your plan, so check the Greenhouse documentation for current values.

Use Greenhouse from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex

Connect Greenhouse in LiveContext, create an API key in Settings, then add the LiveContext MCP server to your client. Its Greenhouse operations become tools the client can call, next to every other integration you connected.

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http livecontext https://livecontext.ai/mcp --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"
Codex (~/.codex/config.toml)
[mcp_servers.livecontext]
url = "https://livecontext.ai/mcp"

[mcp_servers.livecontext.http_headers]
"X-API-Key" = "YOUR_API_KEY"
Cursor, Claude Desktop and other JSON configs

  "mcpServers": {
    "livecontext": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://livecontext.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY"

How to connect Greenhouse

  1. Create your workspace

    Sign up free. Nothing to install.

  2. Connect Greenhouse once

    Add your Greenhouse connection in Settings. Every tool from this integration reuses it, and secrets are encrypted at rest and visible only to you.

  3. Describe the job in chat

    The workflow builds itself in front of you and picks the endpoints it needs. Drag the steps yourself on the canvas whenever you would rather be explicit.
