Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

canton
get_canton_rules
Everything canton-specific for a private household employer: the compensation office (name, contact, portal), how and by when to register, contribution rates with their official sources, family allowances, minimum wage, sick pay in the first year, whether daily sickness allowance insurance (KTG) is mandatory, withholding tax, childcare tax deduction and the penalty for not registering.
compare
compare_cantons
The same hourly wage and weekly hours computed in all 26 Swiss cantons: monthly employer cost, net wage, family allowance fund rate, admin fee and the canton's minimum wage, ranked. Use it for 'where is it cheapest', 'how much does the canton matter' or a table for several cantons.
contract
get_contract_terms
What the employment contract of a cleaner, nanny, carer or au pair in a Swiss private household has to say in one canton, from the canton's standard employment contract for household work (NAV / CTT / CNL) and the Code of Obligations: probation and its notice, notice after probation by service year, paid vacation weeks (by age), full-time week, overtime, night and Sunday supplements, paid public holidays, 13th month wage, hours register, maternity leave and sick pay in the first year. Every term carries its article and the instrument's verbatim sentence, and whether a written contract may deviate. Also what must be confirmed in writing (Art. 330b OR) and a link to Clino's free contract generator, prefilled with the figures given. Use it for 'write me an employment contract', 'what notice period applies', 'how many weeks of vacation', 'is overtime paid extra'.
employer
get_employer_guide
Clino's one-page fact sheet for private households, as Markdown, in six languages: when the duties apply (from the first franc), which contributions are due and who pays them, the simplified procedure and its ceiling, minimum wage and working conditions, what happens without registration, and the six steps. Optionally adds one canton's registration route. Free to reuse under CC BY 4.0.
estimate
estimate_employer_cost
Monthly and annual cost of employing a cleaner, nanny, babysitter or carer in a Swiss private household, and the worker's net wage: gross wage, vacation supplement, every employee deduction (AHV/IV/EO, unemployment, accident insurance, withholding tax, BVG) and every employer contribution (incl. the canton's family allowance fund and the compensation office's admin fee). Uses the same engine as Clino's public calculator. Picks the simplified or ordinary procedure from the annual wage. Canton = where the household lives.
fetch
fetch
The full text of one document returned by search (canton/ZH, guide/de, source/nav-ungelernt...), with its clino.ch or official URL to cite.
hiring
get_hiring_checklist
Everything a Swiss household has to do to employ a cleaner, nanny or carer legally, for its own case, in one call: the six steps of Clino's fact sheet in the user's language with real due dates when a start date is given (contract, registration with the compensation office within 30 days, accident insurance from day one, monthly payslip, annual declaration by 30 January, pension fund above the BVG threshold), the canton's sickness-insurance duty with its carve-outs, a minimum-wage check at the workplace, the monthly employer cost and net wage, and prefilled links to a contract template and the calculator. Use it first for 'I want to hire...' questions.
minimum
get_minimum_wage
The legal gross hourly minimum wage for household work (cleaning, childcare, care) at a Swiss workplace: federal NAV tiers by qualification, cantonal minimum wages (GE, NE, JU, TI, BS), city minimum wages (Stadt Luzern in force; Zürich and Winterthur voted, not yet in force) and the rule below 5 hours a week. Give the workplace postcode for the exact answer, or a canton.
official
get_official_sources
The federal and cantonal figures Clino uses, each with the official document, its URL, the date it was checked and, where recorded, the verbatim sentence that states the value: contribution rates, thresholds, minimum wages, BVG, board and lodging, sick-pay scales, Geneva au pair contract, IV assistance contribution. Use it to cite or verify a number.
search
search
Search Clino's documents on employing household help in Switzerland: one document per canton (compensation office, registration, contribution rates, minimum wage, family allowances, sick pay, sickness insurance), the employer fact sheet in six languages and every official figure with its source. Returns ids for fetch. Queries in any language; name the canton for canton rules.

Clino: Swiss household employment — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Clino: Swiss household employment do?
It exposes 10 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: compare_cantons, estimate_employer_cost, fetch, get_canton_rules, get_contract_terms, get_employer_guide and 4 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Clino: Swiss household employment working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 462 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Clino: Swiss household employment?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Clino: Swiss household employment need an API key?
No. Clino: Swiss household employment completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 10 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Clino: Swiss household employment?
It answers our handshake in 462 ms on average, which is faster than 29% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Clino: Swiss household employment open source?
No, and the distinction matters: its licence is declared as CC-BY-4.0. That makes it source-available — you can read the code, but the terms are the author's own, not one of the recognised open-source licences. Read them before you build on it.
