MCP server

TalentReview runs two MCP servers, one for recruiters and one for candidates. Each has its own URL and its own sign-in. Both use Streamable HTTP and OAuth 2.0: your client opens a browser window, you sign in with your TalentReview account, and that’s it. There is no API key to copy, and API keys are not accepted.

Server	Who it’s for	URL
`trai-recruiter`	Recruiters and hiring teams	`https://mcp.talentreview.ai/mcp`
`trai-candidate`	Job seekers	`https://mcp.talentreview.ai/candidate/mcp`

The setup steps below use the recruiter URL. For the candidate server, swap in https://mcp.talentreview.ai/candidate/mcp and a different name, such as talentreview-candidate.

Connect your client

claude mcp add --transport http talentreview https://mcp.talentreview.ai/mcp

Start Claude Code, type /mcp, pick talentreview and choose Authenticate. Sign in in the browser window that opens.

In Claude, open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector. In ChatGPT, add it as a connector under Settings → Apps. Paste https://mcp.talentreview.ai/mcp, click Connect and sign in. Then turn the connector on in a chat.

codex mcp add talentreview --url https://mcp.talentreview.ai/mcp
codex mcp login talentreview

Add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json, then open Settings → MCP and click Connect next to talentreview.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "talentreview": { "url": "https://mcp.talentreview.ai/mcp" }
  }
}

code --add-mcp '{"name":"talentreview","type":"http","url":"https://mcp.talentreview.ai/mcp"}'

Start the server from the MCP view and sign in.

Any client that speaks Streamable HTTP and MCP auth works. It finds the authorization server from the WWW-Authenticate header on the first 401.

Recruiter tools

Area	Tool	What it does
Jobs	`list_jobs`	Your jobs with their status and stats.
	`get_job`	One job in full.
Applicants	`list_applicants`	Applicants to a job, newest first, with match scores.
	`get_applicant`	Contact details, notes, AI analysis and profile.
	`update_applicant`	Move an applicant to another stage, add a note, or both.
AI analysis	`analyse_applicant`	Score one applicant against the job: strengths, concerns and a recommendation.
	`analyse_all_applicants`	Score every applicant to a job in the background. Paid plans.
	`get_analysis_progress`	How far the latest bulk analysis has got.
	`get_allowances`	Analyses and talent searches left this month.
Talent search	`search_talent`	Find candidates from a plain-English brief.
	`invite_to_apply`	Email a candidate an invitation to one of your active jobs.
Files	`download_cv`	Link to an applicant’s original CV or a PDF built from their resume.
	`export_applicants_csv`	Link to a CSV of a job’s applicants.
Dashboard	`get_dashboard`	Totals, open roles, interviews and trends.

A few things work the same as in the dashboard:

Analyses and talent searches count against your plan’s monthly allowance. Repeating the same search in the same month is free.
When a bulk analysis would go over your allowance, the newest applicants are scored first and the rest are left out.
Talent search never returns a candidate’s email or phone. Use invite_to_apply instead.
download_cv and export_applicants_csv return a link that works once and expires after 15 minutes. You can open it in a browser without signing in.

Things to try:

“Who are the strongest applicants for the backend role?”
“Score everyone who applied to the designer job.”
“Find senior Go engineers in Dubai who can join within a month.”
“Send me a spreadsheet of this week’s applicants.”

The old SSE endpoint, https://mcp.talentreview.ai/sse, has been retired. If your connector still uses it, remove it and add https://mcp.talentreview.ai/mcp.

Candidate tools

The candidate server only sees the signed-in candidate’s own CV. Every edit is saved as a new version, so nothing is overwritten.

Tool	What it does
`list_my_resumes`	Your CV types and every saved version, marking the active one.
`get_my_resume`	One CV version as structured JSON. Defaults to the active CV.
`update_my_resume`	Save an edited CV as a new version. Sections you leave out are copied unchanged.
`set_active_resume`	Make a saved version the active CV.
`download_my_resume_pdf`	Link to a CV version as a PDF. Works once and expires after 15 minutes.

Things to try: “Read my CV and tighten the summary”, or “Add my new job at Acme and make it the active version”.
