Get Candidate Details in your Codebase

The `get_candidate_details` tool lets the AI fetch specific applicant info. Instead of using mock data, your agent pulls live details for a candidate and injects them right into the function you're writing. This is huge when building validation scripts or reporting APIs. Your code uses real-world Name, Email, and Job Details that Wizehire provides, making the output immediately actionable.

Manage job postings via MCP Server

Want to list all open roles? Use `list_active_job_postings` to get a current roster of jobs. This live data feeds directly into your code, so you don't have to manually update the job IDs or titles when writing endpoints. It keeps your development context accurate. When running agent mode in Cursor, the AI knows exactly what roles are available right now.

Update candidate stages within Cursor

The `update_candidate_hiring_stage` tool lets the AI programmatically move candidates through defined steps. You can write a script that iterates over a list of IDs and updates their status—say, from 'Interview' to 'Hired'. This means your code manages state changes in Wizehire without needing manual API calls or messy boilerplate logic.

Setup guide

Set up Wizehire MCP in Cursor

Prerequisites

Cursor installed (macOS, Windows, or Linux)
Active Vinkius subscription with a valid endpoint token

1

Open MCP Settings

Go to Cursor Settings → MCP or open the Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P) and search for "MCP: Add Server".
2

Add the Wizehire MCP

Cursor will create or open .cursor/mcp.json in your project root. Paste the JSON snippet on the right. Replace [YOUR_TOKEN_HERE] with your endpoint token from cloud.vinkius.com.
3

Enable Agent mode

Open Composer (Cmd+I / Ctrl+I) and switch to Agent mode using the dropdown at the top. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode.
4

Verify the connection

Ask Cursor something like "List my recent Wizehire transactions." If the MCP tools are loaded correctly, Cursor will call the Wizehire tools automatically. You can also check Settings → MCP for a green status indicator.
