Use Deel safely with AI

Guides the agent to confirm your Deel organization and the right person before reading or changing anything, and to ask for your explicit approval before any change is made.

Use it when

Asking an assistant to look up a worker or contract in Deel
Connecting Deel to an AI assistant for the first time
Wanting to be sure the assistant will not change payroll or leave records without asking

Tools it uses

get_current_organization
create_a_new_contract
create_contract_for_eor
amend_contract
add_off_cycle_payment_for_contract
create_invoice_adjustment
create_time_off_request
cancel_time_off_request

Example

Check whether Lina Morales's contract in Acme Ltd starts before 1 March, and do not change anything.

Working in Acme Ltd, correct? I found one Lina Morales, based in Portugal, with a contract starting 15 January. That starts before 1 March, so yes. I have made no changes.

Review a Deel contract amendment before it is applied

Reads the current contract, its existing adjustments and the pay dates it affects, shows the impact of a change, and drafts the amendment or off-cycle payment for your approval before writing anything.

Use it when

A worker's rate or terms need to change from a given date
A contractor needs a one-off bonus or correction paid off-cycle
You want to know what a contract change does to upcoming pay before you make it

Tools it uses

get_current_organization
get_adjustments
get_custom_field_from_people_by_id
get_contract_payment_dates
amend_contract
create_a_new_contract
create_contract_for_eor
add_off_cycle_payment_for_contract
calculate_employment_cost
calculate_take_home_pay

Example

Amend Maria Lopez's contract so her monthly rate goes from 4,500 to 5,000 EUR from the 1st of next month, and tell me what that does to her next pay run first.

Your organization is Acme Ltd, so I'll work on Maria Lopez's active contract there (Senior Designer, Spain, open-ended). It currently pays 4,500 EUR per month and has no overlapping adjustments. Her next pay run falls before the 1st, so the change applies cleanly from the run after. Estimated effect: about 500 EUR more gross per month. Here is the exact change for your approval: rate 4,500 to 5,000 EUR, effective the 1st. Reply yes to apply it.

Check whether a country hire is workable with AI

Reviews visa requirements, the compliance documents a country hire needs, and any documents already submitted, then reports what is confirmed, blocked or still open. It asks before changing anything.

Use it when

Before making an offer to a candidate who lives abroad
When a new country needs a list of required employee documents
When a visa question might delay a start date

Tools it uses

get_current_organization
check_visa_requirement
download_employee_compliance_document_template
download_submitted_compliance_document

Example

Can we hire a contractor-free full-time developer in Portugal for a start on 1 September? The candidate is a US passport holder living in Brazil.

Checked against Portugal and the US passport: a work visa is needed, and the candidate holds none, so this is blocked. Employee documents required before first payroll: identity, tax registration and bank details. One submitted identity document is present and valid to 2027. The 1 September start is at risk because the permit timeline is likely longer than the notice period. Verdict: blocked until the visa question is resolved.

Estimate the cost of hiring in another country

Estimates what it costs to employ someone in a given country, or compares Employer of Record against a local entity, using Deel's calculators. It states its assumptions and presents figures as estimates, not quotes.

Use it when

You are budgeting a hire in a new country and need the employer cost.
You want to compare the cost of an EOR against setting up a local entity.
You need to know what an employee would take home from a given salary.

Tools it uses

calculate_employment_cost
calculate_employment_cost_for_multiple_countries
calculate_take_home_pay
calculate_eor_versus_entity_hiring_costs

Example

What would it cost to employ a developer in Portugal on a 60,000 EUR annual gross salary, and how does that compare with setting up an entity there?

Employer cost for a 60,000 EUR annual gross salary in Portugal comes to about 74,000 EUR per year through an EOR, with the EOR fee shown separately. The entity comparison shows a higher first-year figure because of setup costs. These are planning estimates, not a quote, and running costs for the entity are not in the comparison.

Check and manage time off on Deel

Reviews a worker's time-off requests against existing ones and their start date, then creates or cancels a request only after you confirm the person and dates.

Use it when

Booking holiday for a team member without double-booking
Checking whether a leave request overlaps what is already approved
Cancelling the right request after a dates change

Tools it uses

get_current_organization
get_custom_field_from_people_by_id
cancel_time_off_request

Example

Book Maria Lopez off from 14 to 16 July in our Deel org, after checking for overlaps.

Maria Lopez is in the organization you confirmed. She has no approved leave between 14 and 16 July, and one cancelled request from June that does not block these dates. The window is three working days with no public holiday inside it. Shall I create the request for 14 to 16 July?

How Deel skills work

Connect Deel
The Deel MCP server gives the agent its tools.
Ask in plain words
“Amend Maria Lopez's contract so her monthly rate goes from 4,500 to 5,000 EUR from the 1st of next month, and tell me what that does to her next pay run first.” Each SKILL.md says when it applies, so only the one that fits is loaded.
Approve any change
The agent calls the tools in order, checks its work, and shows you any change before it makes it.

How to install Deel skills

In RevampKey the skills install themselves when you connect Deel. In other tools each skill is one folder with a SKILL.md file, and you also need the Deel MCP server connected there.

Deel skills FAQ

What is a Deel agent skill?

A SKILL.md file: a short playbook an AI agent loads when your request matches it. Each Deel skill describes one job, which Deel tools to use in which order, what to check first and when to stop and ask you.

Do the Deel skills change anything on their own?

2 of the 5 only read. The others tell the agent to show you the change and wait for a yes before it creates, edits or deletes anything in Deel.

Which tools can use these skills?

Any agent that reads the open Agent Skills format: Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, VS Code with Copilot and RevampKey. In RevampKey they are attached when you connect Deel; elsewhere you copy the folders into your project or skills directory.

Do I need the Deel MCP server too?

Yes. The skills tell the agent how to do the work; the Deel MCP server gives it the tools to do it. The Deel MCP setup guide covers every client.
