search_result: No Nowsta MCP server exists. Searched the Nowsta site, the help center (intercom.help/nowstasupport),
  the archived developer reference, the github.com/Nowsta organization (9 repos, all forks of third-party
  libraries, 8 of them archived - no Nowsta-authored SDK, CLI or MCP server), npm (0 results for "nowsta"),
  RubyGems (0), Packagist (0), NuGet (404) and PyPI. Probed for /.well-known/ MCP and OAuth protected-resource
  metadata on every Nowsta host - none. This is a candidate tool surface derived from the Integration
  API, NOT something Nowsta publishes.
server:
  name: nowsta
  transport: http
  url: null
  published_by_provider: false
auth:
  scheme: bearer
  detail: A per-company Nowsta integration token would have to be supplied to any MCP server built on
    this surface. The token is not scoped - it authorizes every write operation for the whole company
    - so an MCP deployment should add its own guardrails.
caveats:
- Every operation in this API is a WRITE. There are no read operations, so an agent using these tools
  cannot inspect current state before or after changing it, and cannot verify what a 202 actually applied.
- Nowsta returns 202 Accepted with a queued-job id and publishes no way to poll that job, so tool results
  are inherently unconfirmed.
- Publications are full-object upserts - a tool call built from a partial object will silently clear the
  fields it omits. Any MCP tool over this API must require the complete object.
- publish_workers transmits worker PII (name, email, phone, home address, birthday, emergency contact,
  payroll id) and can desynchronize a record shared across employers. It should be gated behind human
  approval in any agent deployment.
