Connect BrightMove MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect BrightMove to VS Code Copilot and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Share recruitment tools across VS Code Copilot
The `get_recruitment_dashboard` tool brings high-level hiring metrics directly into your shared development environment. Your team can audit pipeline health or check open headcount without leaving their codebases. By committing the configuration to your repo, every engineer gets instant access to these tools. This makes it easy to run quick checks on hiring goals during team standups.
Audit hiring activities using this MCP Server
The `list_activities` tool exposes the complete log of recruiting actions within your editor. Your agent analyzes these logs to verify that background checks and initial screens are moving forward. For detailed background verification, the `list_references` tool pulls reference reports directly into VS Code Copilot. This helps your team quickly confirm candidate history before approving technical offers.
Pull company structures and job details
The `get_company_info` tool retrieves your core organization details directly into your workspace. This allows your team to verify department IDs when writing custom automation scripts. When checking specific requisitions, the `get_job` tool pulls active job requirements. Your agent can then compare these requirements against your internal engineering rubrics.
