Email candidates to the client as a LiveList for a job and move them to Sent.

Vincere MCP tools: https://cotlet.dev/docs/mcp/vincere.md

MCP tool: `vincere_write → send_candidates_to_client`

Access: write. Confirm: waits for the user's OK before it runs.

Sends a LiveList for one job to its client, using Vincere's template 2.5 Send Candidate List, and moves the applications to the Sent stage. hide_names hides candidate names and current employers. message replaces the email body and extra_recipients adds addresses. Vincere limits one email action to 100 recipients. The email reaches the client and cannot be recalled. By default you confirm each call; you can switch that off for this tool.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `job_id` | string | yes | Job id from list_jobs. |
| `candidate_ids` | array | yes | Candidate ids on that job, from list_job_applications. |
| `include_attachments` | boolean | no | Attach the candidates' documents. Default: false. |
| `hide_names` | boolean | no | Hide candidate names and current employers from the client. Default: false. |
| `message` | string | no | Replaces the body of the email template. |
| `extra_recipients` | array | no | Email addresses to add to the job contact. |

## 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.
