# HR Generalist Help Desk

**Folder:** Human Resources / HR Generalist / Employee Q&A Assistant

## What does it do?

An HR Generalist is the first stop for every employee question — benefits, PTO, policy, processes — and answering the same ones repeatedly eats the day.

This agent fields them: it answers from approved policy and HR resources, guides employees through common processes, and routes anything sensitive or case-specific to the generalist — so most questions self-serve.

## Benefits

- Employees get instant HR answers.
- Repetitive questions handled automatically.
- Grounded in approved sources.
- Sensitive cases escalated.
- Generalist time freed for real work.

## Recommended setup

• MCP — a knowledge base/Drive for HR info and Slack as the interface.
• Skill — an employee-Q&A skill grounded in your policies.

## Installation

1. Download this file.
2. Drop it into your `.claude/agents/` folder (project or user-level).
3. Restart Claude Code.

## How to use it

Point employees to it ("how much PTO do I have / how do I update my W-4?"). It answers from policy and escalates edge cases.
