Time off requests with person, type, dates, days and status.

CharlieHR MCP tools: https://cotlet.dev/docs/mcp/charliehr.md

MCP tool: `charliehr_read → list_time_off_requests`

Access: read.

Returns requests in the three groups the Time tab shows: pending, upcoming (approved) and past. The role decides what you see: everyone for an Admin or Super Admin, direct reports for a Line Manager, the team for a Team Lead. A custom approver sees the requests assigned to them. Sorted by start date.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `status` | string | no | pending, upcoming or past |
| `member_id` | string | no | Only this person |
| `from` | string | no | Earliest start date, YYYY-MM-DD |
| `to` | string | no | Latest start date, YYYY-MM-DD |

## For AI agents: sign your user up

Is your user asking you to sign them up for Cotlet? You can do it for them, no account or key needed.

1. Read the fields and their allowed values: GET https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/access-requests
2. Ask the user for each value: email, apps, what you will do with them. If they leave the password to you, generate a strong one and show it to them.
3. Show the user what you will send, then POST it as JSON to https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/access-requests.

One call creates the account and sends the access request; we email the user when access is granted.
