MCP people and org charts - Arxena Documentation

MCP is the NL-first surface: the agent should pass a role query + company, not invent std_grade codes. Resolution happens on Arxena’s side.

Prerequisites

“Who is Head of HR at Apple?”

Prefer the tool that takes a job title + company (search_people_by_job_title). Use code-based search only when you already have std filters. Public vocabulary nouns: taxonomy constants.
