MCP server

Use PopCVs inside your AI assistant

Connect PopCVs to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any app that supports remote MCP servers. Sign in once and your assistant can import, tailor, ATS-check and export your resumes. Same account, same resumes, same credits as the web app.

Server URL

http://localhost:3000/api/mcp

Sign-in uses OAuth. Your assistant opens a PopCVs page where you approve access. No API keys to copy.

Connect

Claude (claude.ai and desktop)

Open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector. Name it PopCVs, paste the server URL, and click Add. Then click Connect and approve access on the PopCVs page.

ChatGPT

Turn on Developer mode in Settings → Apps & Connectors → Advanced. Then choose Create under Connectors, paste the server URL, pick OAuth authentication and sign in when asked.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http popcvs http://localhost:3000/api/mcp

Then run /mcp inside Claude Code and choose PopCVs to sign in.

Cursor, VS Code and other clients

Add this to your MCP config (~/.cursor/mcp.json for Cursor, .vscode/mcp.json uses "servers" instead of "mcpServers"):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "popcvs": {
      "url": "http://localhost:3000/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

The client opens your browser to sign in the first time.
