• Search available locations and positions
• Rebook from previous shifts or templates

Note

Only USA and Canada are supported. Long-term staffing and permanent positions are not supported.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• An Instawork business partner account
• An AI assistant that supports MCP (e.g. Cursor, Claude Desktop, or Claude Code)

MCP Server Setup

Add the Instawork Partner MCP server to your AI assistant configuration:

Cursor / Claude Desktop (mcp.json or claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "instawork-partner": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://finch.instawork.com/mcp/partner/"]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code:

claude mcp add instawork-partner -- npx mcp-remote https://finch.instawork.com/mcp/partner/

Authentication is handled via OAuth. You will be prompted to log in with your Instawork partner credentials on first use.

Usage

Once set up, you can ask your AI assistant natural language questions like:

• "Book 3 warehouse workers for Friday at our Chicago location"
• "What's the pricing for a line cook shift next week?"
• "Rebook the same team from our last event"

The skill will guide you through the booking workflow, confirm details, and submit the booking on your behalf.
