You have to manage tight deadlines, gather specific evidence of leadership, and coordinate with references. This MCP handles the heavy lifting of the planning phase. You provide your candidate data and the board's requirements, and your AI client builds the framework you need to succeed. Instead of staring at a blank page, you can use this MCP to map out exactly when to finish your documents or when to reach out to supporters. It identifies the gaps between your current CV and what the board is looking for, so you aren't caught off guard during an interview. It turns a vague goal into a series of specific, manageable milestones. ## Tools ### get_application_timeline This tool calculates your specific milestones based on the application deadline, the requirements, and how much time you can actually commit each week. ### get_document_checklist This tool compares your existing documents against the board's requirements to show you exactly what is missing. ### get_interview_prep_agenda This tool builds a tailored interview preparation plan that connects your past experiences to the specific criteria the board uses for selection. ### get_reference_outreach_plan This tool creates a schedule and plan for contacting your professional supporters and references. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` I need a timeline for a board application due on 2025-05-01.
