## Description

Returns full details for a single opportunity (candidate application) by ID. Use this after **Search Opportunities** when you need complete candidate data including contact info, stage, notes, and application history. Set expand to inline related objects: `applications` for application records, `stage` for the current stage name, `owner` for the assigned recruiter, `contact` for full contact details. The opportunity ID comes from search results or from a webhook payload. Example: call with opportunityId="<id>", expand=["applications","stage"] → returns the full opportunity with the application and stage objects inlined. [See the documentation](https://hire.lever.co/developer/documentation#retrieve-a-single-opportunity)

  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const accessToken = await pd.rawAccessToken

const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(

    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "lever-get-opportunity",
  arguments: {
    opportunityId: "Opportunity ID",
    expand: ["Expand"],
