How to Use the BrightMove MCP in Cursor

Q: Can I use BrightMove inside Cursor for local testing?

Yes, configure the server in your .cursor/mcp.json file. The editor connects to the API, allowing you to run recruitment queries directly from the chat panel.

Write code against live applicant data in Cursor

The `list_applicants` tool feeds active candidate profiles directly to Cursor's AI agent. You can build custom internal dashboards or scoring scripts using actual candidate profiles instead of static mock files. Use `get_applicant` to pull a single developer's profile into your editor. Cursor uses this live context to help you write precise integration tests for your custom HR portal.

Build job boards with this BrightMove MCP Server

The `list_jobs` tool pulls your entire open role catalog directly into your active coding file. This lets you write frontend components that render actual job listings from your production account. If you need specific parameters, the `get_job` tool provides the exact schema of your postings. Your agent uses these details to generate TypeScript interfaces matching your hiring database.

Sync internal user accounts and placements

The `list_user_accounts` tool shows who has access to your recruiting system. Cursor uses this list to help you build secure internal routing rules for your team's custom admin panel. When tracking hires, the `list_placements` tool provides real-time placement data. You can write scripts that automatically calculate hiring metrics without manually exporting CSV files.
