MCP Tools Reference
Complete reference for all MCP tools available to AI assistants — parameters, return data, and required permissions.
Why It Matters
When an AI assistant connects to your Kit account, it gets access to a set of tools. Each tool does one thing — list your job postings, fetch template details, invite a team member. This page documents every tool so you know what your AI assistant can and cannot do.
Getting Started
Every connected AI assistant sees this instruction first:
Start with
hiring_get_setup_guideto understand this account’s hiring capabilities, oroutreach_list_campaignsfor cold-email outreach operations.
The guide tool returns your account stats and available stage types, giving the assistant context before it takes any action.
Tools are grouped by module, and a connection only sees the modules it was granted on the consent screen — tools from non-granted modules don’t appear in the assistant’s tool list at all. See Connecting AI Assistants for how module scopes work.

Returns: The assessment summary (severity tier and CVSS score).

Requires: outreach_write scope.
outreach_approve_pending_messages
Approves drafted outreach messages. Three modes: (1) message_id approves one message; (2) campaign_id bulk-approves all pending for that campaign (preview + confirmation_token two-step); (3) omit both to auto-scope across the account — auto-selects if one campaign has pending, returns disambiguation if multiple do.
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
message_id |
string | No | Approve a single message |
campaign_id |
string | No | Approve all pending for this campaign |
confirmation_token |

Returns: For single: message status and approval details. For bulk preview: count, sample recipients, and confirmation token. For bulk execute: number approved.
Requires: outreach_write scope.
outreach_find_silver_medalist_matches
Scans a campaign’s prospects for people who previously applied to one of your roles and were rejected without an offer. This cross-domain lookup is unique to Kit — no standalone outreach tool has access to your hiring data.

|---|---|---|---|
campaign_id |
string | Yes | Campaign ID from outreach_list_campaigns
|
Returns: Number of prospects scanned, match count, and up to 10 matches with email, name, previous job posting title, rejection date, and reason excerpt.
