convert_candidacy
Convert an accepted candidacy
All MCP toolsWrite
Record the conversion of an accepted candidacy — the ONE conversion surface: moves it to converted, emits the hired outcome, and creates the employment record in one transaction (a person already holding an active tenure in the organization is refused). Passes while the job is published; an unpublished job refuses (job_not_published). A record on the agreed terms names no job and passes. Terminal: a conversion cannot be undone from this surface.
