Standardize Recruit CRM access in VS Code Copilot

Commit your configuration to the repo via `.vscode/mcp.json`. Now every engineer on your team has the same tools for `list_candidates` and `get_job_details`. This keeps your development environment consistent. No one has to manually track down endpoints or setup scripts to get the CRM data they need.

Build team-wide tools with this MCP Server

Your team can build internal portals using `get_me` and `list_companies`. By sharing the configuration file, you ensure everyone is hitting the same account. It is the fastest way to build shared utilities. Everyone gets the same tool definitions and the same data access rights.

Manage job applications in VS Code Copilot

Use `list_job_applications` to see who is interviewing for what. It gives your team instant insight into the hiring funnel without leaving the IDE. Developers can write tests or features that depend on real CRM data. Since the config is committed, the whole team stays on the same page.

Setup guide

Set up Recruit CRM 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

Add the Recruit CRM MCP

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.
4

Verify the connection

In the Copilot Chat input, type # to list available tools. You should see the Recruit CRM tools listed. Try asking: "List my recent Recruit CRM transactions" and Copilot will invoke them automatically.

Common questions about Recruit CRM MCP in VS Code Copilot

Add the server to your .vscode/mcp.json file in the root of your project. Once committed, your team will see the tools appear in the Copilot Chat interface.

You can set up a global configuration in VS Code using the user settings menu. This makes the tools accessible in any project you work on.

Since you manage the configuration, you control who has access. The server respects your existing API permissions and organization-wide security policies.

You need VS Code 1.96 or higher to support the latest MCP features. Make sure your editor is updated to use the full toolset.

Your recruitment data is treated as transient information. The tools process candidate employment history and contact details only as needed for your current task, with no persistent storage on the local client.
