Connect your agent

HiringOrchestrator is one MCP server. Add it to the agent you already use and it gains the full hiring workflow. The fastest path is the one-click installers on /install; the steps below are the same thing, explained.

The server URL

Every client connects to the same endpoint:

https://www.hiringorchestrator.com/api/mcp

Authentication is handled for you. Agent clients run OAuth on first use (no API key to paste); backends use a scoped API key. See Authentication.

Claude (web and desktop)

  • Open claude.ai/settings/connectors.
  • Click Add custom connector and paste the server URL.
  • Sign in with your HiringTest account when Claude asks. The connection uses OAuth.
  • Say “set up my hiring workspace” to begin.

Claude Code

One command in your terminal. Claude Code walks the OAuth sign-in on first use.

claude mcp add --transport http hiring-orchestrator https://www.hiringorchestrator.com/api/mcp

Pair it with the hiring-orchestrator skill for the triage, weekly-review, and req-to-offer playbooks.

ChatGPT

  • Open Settings, then Connectors and enable Developer mode (Plus, Pro, Business, or Enterprise).
  • Choose Add custom connector and paste the server URL.
  • Authenticate with OAuth when prompted.

Cursor and VS Code

One-click installs are on /install. Both editors accept the server URL directly under their MCP settings: name it hiring-orchestrator, type http, URL the server above.

First prompts

Once connected, a few words get you moving. The agent reads first, then proposes:

  • “Set me up” runs the workspace intake: departments, locations, and culture.
  • “Import my ATS” starts the migration wedge (you confirm before anything writes).
  • “Open a senior backend role” drafts a job from a short interview and your culture profile.
  • “Show me the pipeline” returns a read-only summary across open roles.

Reads are free and instant. Consequential actions return an undo handle, and destructive ones ask for confirmation. The agent never advances or rejects a candidate on its own. See Concepts for the safety model.
