How to Use the JobScore MCP in Cursor
Generate real recruiting code and internal dashboards in Cursor using live JobScore candidate and job data.
Works with every AI agent you already use
…and any MCP-compatible client
Connect JobScore MCP to Cursor
Create your Vinkius account to connect JobScore to Cursor and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Write candidate sync scripts with live JobScore payloads
The `get_candidate` tool fetches real-time JobScore application history and resume highlights directly into your Cursor editor. When writing sync scripts, your Cursor agent runs this tool to inspect the actual JSON structure instead of relying on outdated API documentation. This eliminates guesswork when mapping JobScore fields in your Cursor workspace. Your Cursor agent calls `list_candidates` to populate mock databases with real candidate IDs, ensuring your integration code works on the first run.
Build job boards using the Cursor MCP Server
The `list_jobs` tool returns active JobScore titles, departments, and unique identifiers directly to your Cursor coding workspace. Your Cursor agent uses this live feed to generate frontend components that display real, active openings. By calling `get_job`, the Cursor editor retrieves the exact JobScore markdown job descriptions and requirements. You can build dynamic filters using `list_departments` and `list_locations` to build search features that match your actual ATS structure.
Scaffold JobScore referral tracking in Cursor
The `list_sources` tool identifies exactly where your JobScore applicants are coming from, such as LinkedIn or direct referrals. Your Cursor agent uses this data to write custom analytics dashboards that show which channels perform best. To map hiring permissions in your Cursor project, `list_users` and `list_hiring_teams` provide the exact user IDs and roles. This lets you write authorization logic in your code that mirrors your actual JobScore team structure.
