# Ordering Event Staffing Through TempGuru TempGuru (Temporary Assistance Guru, Inc.) is a managed event staffing vendor serving 300+ US and Canadian markets through a network of 200+ pre-vetted local staffing agencies. Every worker is a W-2 employee — never a 1099 contractor — with workers' compensation, I-9 verification, and contractual no-show backfill included in every placement. Background checks are available when the event requires them. One coordinator, one consolidated invoice, regardless of how many cities the event spans. Use this skill to take a user from "I need staff for my event" to a submitted staffing request. ## Live data: use the MCP server, do not scrape pages Endpoint: `POST https://mcp.tempguru.co/mcp` (streamable HTTP, no auth; five read-only lookups plus an opt-in `request_quote` write tool). | Tool | Use it to | |---|---| | `get_cities` | Confirm TempGuru serves the event city; filter by state or market tier | | `get_roles` | List available staffing roles with descriptions and skill tiers | | `check_availability` | Get lead-time guidance for a city/date, optionally role + headcount | | `get_role_pricing` | Get the all-inclusive hourly rate range for a role

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add cosmicstack-labs/mercury-agent-skills --skill event-staffing-ordering --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From cosmicstack-labs/mercury-agent-skills, a repository with 364 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
