How to Use the Jobtoolz MCP in Cursor

Q: How do I set up the Jobtoolz MCP server in Cursor?

Add the server block to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root or global directory. Once saved, Cursor's agent mode automatically detects the MCP tools and can call them during chat or inline edits.

Q: Can I use Jobtoolz to debug recruitment webhooks inside Cursor?

Yes. You can ask Cursor to run getcandidate to verify if a webhook payload matches the actual candidate data in Jobtoolz. This helps you debug data mismatches without leaving your editor.

Q: How does Cursor handle Jobtoolz department filtering?

Your agent runs listdepartments to grab valid business units. It then uses those IDs to write and test code that filters jobs or candidates by department in your local environment.

Q: Can I list recruitment sources in my code?

Yes. Use listsources to retrieve active channels like Indeed or your website. Cursor can write helper functions to categorize candidate origins based on this live list.

Generate code and build recruitment dashboards in Cursor using live candidate and job data from Jobtoolz.

Perplexity

Inject live applicant data into your code

Run `list_candidates` to pull real applicant names, IDs, and pipeline statuses directly into Cursor's Composer or Agent mode. Your editor generates frontend components using live JSON payloads instead of fake mock data. If you need deeper context for a specific profile, use `get_candidate` to inspect custom field values. This lets you test your rendering logic against actual applicant histories in real time.

Build job boards in Cursor with the Jobtoolz MCP Server

Use `list_jobs` to pull real-time job titles, IDs, and departments straight into your Cursor active workspace. Connecting this MCP Server lets your editor write type-safe API integrations without manual copy-pasting. Call `list_locations` alongside your job listings to map geographic data to your UI. Your Cursor agent writes the filtering logic using actual office locations returned by the server.

Track pipeline stages during development

Use `list_stages` to fetch the exact hiring steps configured in your recruitment pipeline. Cursor uses these stages to generate accurate dropdowns and status badges in your application. Combine this with `list_users` to assign hiring managers to specific stages in your mockups. Your agent writes the assignment logic using real user accounts from your team.
