Move a candidate to a stage
Move a candidate to another stage of a job.
MCP tool loxo_write → move_candidate
write Confirm
Moves the candidate as a drag and drop does, so the profile and reports show "Moved to {stage}" and no progression trigger. Use log_activity when the trigger should count. A stage with an Email Automation can start sending its emails. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.

| Name | Type | Description |
