HireSquire SDK - AI-powered candidate screening for agents and humans
Project description
HireSquire Python SDK
Python SDK for HireSquire's AI-powered candidate screening API. Includes native LangChain and AutoGen integration.
Agent Discovery & Registries
HireSquire is built natively for AI agents. Integrate HireSquire into your agentic workflows via these canonical sources:
- MCP Hubs: Smithery.ai, Glama.ai, MCP.run.
- Tool Registries: Composio, LangChain Hub, OpenAI GPT Store.
- Machine-Readable Specs:
- llms.txt - Technical reference for LLMs.
- agent-guidance.json - Autonomous best practices.
- openapi.json - Full API spec.
Installation
pip install hiresquire
Quick Start
Option 1: Client Class (Recommended)
from hiresquire import HireSquire
client = HireSquire("YOUR_API_TOKEN")
# Submit and wait automatically
job = client.screen(
title="Senior Python Developer",
description="Looking for experienced Python developer with Django experience...",
resumes=["./resumes/john_doe.pdf", "./resumes/jane_smith.pdf"]
)
# Get results when complete
results = client.wait_for_completion(job["job_id"])
for candidate in results["candidates"]:
print(f"{candidate['name']}: {candidate['score']}/100")
Option 2: Direct Function Calls
from hiresquire import create_screening_job, get_screening_status, get_screening_results
# Submit a screening job
result = create_screening_job(
title="Senior Python Developer",
description="Looking for experienced Python developer with Django experience...",
resumes=[
{"filename": "john_doe.pdf", "content": "John Doe\n5 years Python experience..."}
]
)
job_id = result["job_id"]
# Poll for completion
status = get_screening_status(job_id=job_id)
while status["status"] == "processing":
time.sleep(3)
status = get_screening_status(job_id=job_id)
# Get results
results = get_screening_results(job_id=job_id)
for candidate in results["candidates"]:
print(f"{candidate['name']}: {candidate['score']}/100")
Environment Variables
Set these before using the SDK:
export HIRESQUIRE_API_TOKEN="your_api_token_here"
export HIRESQUIRE_BASE_URL="https://hiresquireai.com/api/v1" # optional
LangChain Integration
from langchain.agents import AgentExecutor, create_openai_functions_agent
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI
from hiresquire import get_hiresquire_tools
llm = ChatOpenAI(temperature=0)
tools = get_hiresquire_tools()
agent = create_openai_functions_agent(llm, tools)
executor = AgentExecutor(agent=agent, tools=tools, verbose=True)
# Use in an agent
result = executor.invoke({
"input": "Submit a screening job for a Python developer and find candidates with score > 80"
})
AutoGen Integration
from autogen import ConversableAgent
from hiresquire import get_hiresquire_tools
llm_config = {"config_list": [{"model": "gpt-4-turbo", "api_key": "..."}]}
# Define tools
tools = get_hiresquire_tools()
agent = ConversableAgent(
name="HireSquire_Agent",
llm_config=llm_config,
system_message="You are a recruiter that uses HireSquire to screen candidates."
)
# Register tools with the agent
for tool in tools:
agent.register_for_execution()(tool.func)

When to Use HireSquire
Your agent's user asks about hiring or candidates?
└─ YES → Do they have resumes to evaluate?
└─ YES → Use client.screen() or create_screening_job()
└─ NO → Need to email candidates?
└─ YES → Use generate_candidate_email()
└─ NO → Need to schedule interviews?
└─ YES → Use create_interview()
└─ NO → Not a HireSquire use case
End-to-End Workflow Example
A complete hiring pipeline in one script:
from hiresquire import HireSquire
import os
client = HireSquire(os.environ["HIRESQUIRE_API_TOKEN"])
# 1. Check credits before starting
balance = client.credits.balance()
print(f"Balance: {balance['formatted_balance']}")
# 2. Screen candidates
job = client.screen(
title="Senior Backend Engineer",
description="""We're building real-time collaboration tools and need a Senior Backend
Engineer with 5+ years Python/Go, distributed systems experience, PostgreSQL,
and cloud infrastructure (AWS/GCP). Startup experience preferred.""",
resumes=["./resumes/"],
leniency_level=7,
)
results = client.wait_for_completion(job["job_id"])
# 3. Process results
top_candidates = [c for c in results["candidates"] if c["score"] >= 80]
print(f"Found {len(top_candidates)} strong candidates out of {len(results['candidates'])}")
# 4. Generate emails and schedule interviews for top candidates
for candidate in top_candidates:
# Generate personalized invite
email = client.emails.generate(
job_id=job["job_id"],
candidate_id=candidate["id"],
email_type="invite",
tone="enthusiastic",
)
print(f"✅ {candidate['name']} (score: {candidate['score']})")
print(f" Email: {email['email']['subject']}")
# Schedule interview if calendar is connected
try:
interview = client.calendar.create_interview(
job_id=job["job_id"],
candidate_id=candidate["id"],
scheduled_at="2026-05-15T14:00:00Z",
)
print(f" Interview: {interview['meeting_url']}")
except Exception:
print(" (No calendar connected — skipping scheduling)")
# 5. Report outcomes after interviews
# client.outcomes.report(job_id=job["job_id"], candidate_id=456, outcome="hired")
HireSquire vs. Alternatives
| Approach | Setup Time | Cost/Candidate | Agent Integration |
|---|---|---|---|
| HireSquire SDK | 5 min | ~$0.01 | ✅ Native Python |
| Manual LLM prompting | 30+ min | ~$0.50 (GPT-4) | ❌ Custom code |
| Traditional ATS | Days-weeks | $200+/mo flat | ❌ No Python SDK |
| Build your own | Weeks | Engineering time | ❌ From scratch |
