--- title: "Lever MCP server for AI agents - actionlake" description: "Give Claude 101 Lever actions through one MCP server: opportunities, postings. Your agent never holds the credential. 100,000 calls a month free." canonical: https://actionlake.com/connectors/lever updated: 2026-10-22 --- Connectors · Work & projects # Lever MCP server for AI agents. actionlake is an MCP gateway: one remote MCP server that connects Claude and other MCP clients to Lever and the rest of your systems. It gives your agent 101 Lever actions (52 reads, 37 writes and 12 that wait for a confirmation) and holds the Lever credential itself, so the agent never does. It paces Lever's limits and records every call. [Connect Lever free](https://actionlake.com/console?start=sandbox) [See pricing](https://actionlake.com/pricing) 100,000 free calls a month.

Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us. `https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp` 2. 02 ### Connect Lever. Username and secret. No consent screen: your agent can connect it for you, but the key then passes through your chat. To keep it out of the model's context, paste it in the console instead. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key. - `api_key` Lever API key: a Super Admin opens Settings > Integrations and API > API Credentials, generates a key and ticks the… ``` account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "lever" } # free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you ``` 3. 03 ### Make the first call. Check before a write. Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, `check` validates the call and prices it, for free. ``` do { action: "lever.users.list" } # list users · read · 1 upstream call check { action: "lever.users.create", input: { … } } # free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent ``` Lever at a glance **Sign-in** Username and secret.

These are all of them: - Delete an interview `lever.interviews.delete` - Delete a webhook `lever.webhooks.delete` - Delete a file `lever.files.delete` - Delete a note `lever.notes.delete` - Delete an interview panel `lever.panels.delete` - Delete a feedback form `lever.feedback.delete` - Deactivate a user `lever.users.deactivate` - Delete a requisition `lever.requisitions.delete` - Delete a profile form template `lever.form_templates.delete` - Delete a feedback template `lever.feedback_templates.delete` - Delete a requisition field `lever.requisition_fields.delete` - Delete options from a dropdown requisition field `lever.requisition_fields.delete_options` A destructive action runs only with `confirm: true`. Under the `human` policy the agent cannot confirm for itself: the run stops until a named person approves, in the console or from a signed link in an email. The cap on a key is refused before the call is sent, never after. do lever.interviews.delete confirm_policy: **human** Delete an interview? **intent:** the user asked me to delete an interview run suspended · waiting for a named person · key _lever-agent_ cannot confirm itself In the console, or from an emailed signed link. a key for this connector ``` account { op: "keys.create", name: "lever-agent", allowed_actions: ["lever.*"], cap_calls: 2000, confirm_policy: "human_for_writes", approval_rules: [ { match: "lever.interviews.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" }, { match: "lever.webhooks.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" }, { match: "lever.files.delete", approver: "lead@example.com" } ] } ``` Illustrative. Scoped to Lever only, capped at 2,000 upstream calls, every write confirmed, and the destructive ones approved by a named person. Cost ## What Lever costs on actionlake. Every Lever action is one upstream call, the only thing actionlake bills. Searching, `check`, `cost`, `account` and any call Lever refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free.

The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "lever" } lists exactly what to paste. **Can an AI agent delete or change things in Lever?** Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 12 Lever actions are destructive, including delete an interview, delete a webhook and delete a file. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it. **Will an AI agent use up my Lever API limit?** actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Lever service file: 10 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (52 Lever actions can be), which never reaches Lever. **What does a Lever action cost?** One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (101 Lever actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Lever refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000. **Which Lever API does it cover?** The Lever API v1 at api.lever.co/v1. It is built from Lever's documentation as read on 22 October 2026. 101 actions in 27 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0). **Does actionlake keep my Lever data, and where?** actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Lever credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models. **Which AI clients can use it?** Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names. ## More connectors like Lever Shares the most action names with - [SmartRecruiters 21](https://actionlake.com/connectors/smartrecruiters) - [Gem 18](https://actionlake.com/connectors/gem) - [Teamtailor 16](https://actionlake.com/connectors/teamtailor) - [Pinpoint 15](https://actionlake.com/connectors/pinpoint) - [Greenhouse Harvest 15](https://actionlake.com/connectors/greenhouse-harvest) - [Recruitee 11](https://actionlake.com/connectors/recruitee) Joins with, on shared entities - [JobAdder 2](https://actionlake.com/connectors/jobadder) - [Rippling 2](https://actionlake.com/connectors/rippling) - [Recruit CRM 2](https://actionlake.com/connectors/recruit-crm) - [HaloPSA 1](https://actionlake.com/connectors/halopsa) - [Slack 1](https://actionlake.com/connectors/slack) - [Gusto 1](https://actionlake.com/connectors/gusto) Browse - [All Work & projects connectors](https://actionlake.com/connectors/category/work-and-projects) - [All connectors](https://actionlake.com/connectors) - [How actionlake compares](https://actionlake.com/compare) actionlake is independent.
