Can I use Hubstaff as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Hubstaff CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Hubstaff through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Hubstaff tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Hubstaff credentials stored?

Hubstaff credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Hubstaff MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Hubstaff CLI for Cron Jobs

Schedule repeatable integration workflows from cron while keeping credentials in KosmoKrator config.

Use the headless CLI from cron when an operation should run without an interactive agent session. The Hubstaff CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# Hubstaff CLI for Cron Jobs
kosmokrator integrations:configure hubstaff --set access_token="$HUBSTAFF_ACCESS_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call hubstaff.hubstaff_list_time_entries '{"startTime":"example_startTime","endTime":"example_endTime","userIds":"example_userIds","projectId":1,"limit":1,"page":1}' --json

Discovery Before Execution

Agents and scripts can inspect Hubstaff docs and schemas before choosing a function.

kosmo integrations:docs hubstaff --json
kosmo integrations:docs hubstaff.hubstaff_list_time_entries --json
kosmo integrations:schema hubstaff.hubstaff_list_time_entries --json
kosmo integrations:search "Hubstaff" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json

Automation Notes

Use --json for machine-readable output.
Keep credentials out of argv by using environment variables or stored KosmoKrator configuration.
Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use --force only for trusted automation.
Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
