Share Moka HR Configurations Across Your Dev Team

Standardize your team's development environment. Commit a configuration file to your repository so every developer instantly gains access to tools like `list_jobs` and `get_job` directly in VS Code Copilot. This ensures your entire engineering team works with the exact same ATS endpoints. No more manual setup guides or mismatched environment variables when building recruitment microservices.

Debug Applicant Workflows with Real Live Context

Troubleshoot pipeline issues faster by querying live data. Your agent uses `get_application` and `list_applications` to inspect candidate statuses and history right inside your VS Code terminal window. Instead of guessing why an API call failed, ask Copilot to pull the active record. It will identify schema mismatches or missing fields by comparing your code against the live Moka HR payload.

Integrate Interview Schedules and Summaries

Build custom scheduling tools using the MCP Server. Copilot calls `list_interviews` and `get_interview` to retrieve meeting details, making it easy to test calendar integrations. You can also pull structured evaluations using `get_hiring_summary`. This helps your team build custom dashboard feeds that display recruiter notes and candidate scores without leaving the editor.

Setup guide

Set up Moka HR MCP in VS Code Copilot

Prerequisites

VS Code 1.99 or later with GitHub Copilot extension
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP configuration

Open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and run "MCP: Add Server". Select HTTP (Streamable) as the server type. VS Code will create .vscode/mcp.json in your workspace.
2

Paste the JSON snippet shown on the right into your .vscode/mcp.json. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Switch to Agent mode

Open Copilot Chat (Cmd+Shift+I / Ctrl+Shift+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode — they do not appear in Edit or Ask modes.
