How to Use the Flatwork ATS MCP in Vercel AI SDK
Run real-time candidate pipelines directly in your React apps with Flatwork ATS and the Vercel AI SDK MCP client.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect Flatwork ATS MCP to Vercel AI SDK
Create your Vinkius account to connect Flatwork ATS to Vercel AI SDK and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Push applicant status changes directly to your UI
Look, here's the deal. The `update_application_status` tool lets your Vercel AI SDK agent change hiring stages on the fly. Because the SDK handles streaming, your users see the status flip in the UI without waiting for a loading spinner. You can couple this with `list_applications` to render live hiring queues. The agent handles the data mutations, while the Vercel AI SDK pushes the fresh state directly to your React components.
Create candidates instantly via Vercel AI SDK
When a user drops a resume into your chat interface, your agent uses `create_applicant` to parse and write the record to Flatwork ATS. The SDK passes the JSON payload straight to the Edge Function, keeping execution fast. Once created, the agent calls `get_applicant` to pull the new profile. The SDK streams the parsed details right back to the client interface so the recruiter sees the profile build itself.
Live job board queries using this MCP Server
Connect your web portal to Flatwork ATS via this MCP Server to let users query open roles. Your agent runs `list_jobs` and `get_job` to fetch active postings based on user questions. The Vercel AI SDK streams these job descriptions directly into custom UI cards. This bypasses the typical loading spinners, showing users matched roles the millisecond the agent finds them.
