How to Use the JobScore MCP in VS Code Copilot

Q: How do we share JobScore access across our team in VS Code Copilot?

Add the MCP Server to your .vscode/mcp.json file and commit it. Every developer on the team can then use getme to verify their access and start querying the API.

Q: Can VS Code Copilot help us debug API calls to JobScore?

Yes. Copilot calls getcandidate or getjob to retrieve real payloads, allowing you to debug data mismatches directly in your editor.

Q: How do we fetch JobScore applicant sources using VS Code Copilot?

Ask Copilot to list your recruitment channels. It runs listsources to retrieve the exact channels, like LinkedIn or referrals, and displays them in your chat.

Q: Can I retrieve office locations for our job postings?

Yes. The listlocations tool pulls all geographical offices, allowing you to map job listings to physical locations in your code.

Share JobScore data across your team in VS Code

The `list_jobs` tool provides your development team with direct access to active JobScore listings within their shared VS Code workspace. By committing the configuration to your repository, every developer using Copilot can query active roles without sharing personal API keys. Your team uses `get_job` to pull JobScore descriptions and requirements directly into Copilot Chat. This lets VS Code developers build features that match the live ATS data structure without constant context switching.

Automate candidate workflows with this VS Code MCP Server

The `list_candidates` tool fetches the active pipeline stages and names of all current JobScore applicants. Your VS Code team uses this tool to build custom webhooks or automated notification systems that trigger when a candidate moves stages. With `get_candidate`, developers using Copilot can inspect individual JobScore application history and contact records. This helps write precise data-mapping functions for custom internal recruiting platforms.

Map your JobScore structure in VS Code Copilot

The `list_departments` tool retrieves your company's JobScore business units to help categorize jobs in your custom applications. Developers use this inside VS Code Copilot to build department-specific filters in internal dashboards. By combining this with `list_hiring_teams` and `list_users`, your VS Code team can write code that automatically routes new JobScore applicants to the correct hiring manager or recruiter.
