How to Use the Recruit CRM MCP in Windsurf

Q: Can Windsurf Cascade create jobs in Recruit CRM automatically?

Yes. Cascade uses the createjob tool to generate new job listings. It reads your raw requirements document, formats the description, and posts it to your CRM.

Q: Can I filter active applications for a specific role?

Yes. The listjobapplications tool lets your agent grab every applicant tied to a specific job ID. Cascade then parses this list to show you who is currently in the interview pipeline.

Let Windsurf Cascade autonomously source candidates, build job postings, and map client companies directly from your workspace.

Autopilot Candidate Sourcing in Windsurf

The `create_candidate` tool adds new applicant profiles straight into your recruitment pipeline using this MCP server. When you feed Cascade a resume file or a LinkedIn export, it reads the text, extracts the contact details, and calls this tool to build the record. Cascade doesn't stop at just importing. It automatically triggers `list_jobs` to find open roles matching the candidate's skills, then uses `list_job_applications` to check if they already applied elsewhere in your system.

Autonomous Job-to-Candidate Matching

The `list_jobs` tool pulls your active openings so your AI agent can analyze current hiring needs. Cascade scans these vacancies, compares them against your active talent pool via `list_candidates`, and ranks the best fits. Once Cascade identifies a match, it fetches deep background using `get_candidate_details`. It then drafts a personalized pitch email based on the job requirements it pulled from `get_job_details`, all without you clicking a single button.

Deep Client Mapping via Windsurf MCP Server

The `list_companies` tool retrieves your active client accounts to help map out hiring organizations. Cascade uses this data to track which companies have active hiring freezes or urgent hiring needs. It chains this lookup with `list_contacts` and `get_contact_details` to find the hiring manager's direct info. You get a fully mapped account strategy laid out in your editor sidebar instantly.
