Client Setup (Examples: Claude Desktop, Cursor)

To use this server with an MCP client like Claude Desktop or Cursor, you need to configure the client to run the server process and optionally provide the HireBase API key.

  1. Ensure uv is installed: curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

  2. Obtain a HireBase API Key (optional): Request a key from HireBase You can set this as an environment variable (HIREBASE_API_KEY) or just leave it empty.

  3. Configure your client:

    • Using uvx:

      • Claude Desktop: Edit your claude_desktop_config.json:
        {
          "mcpServers": {
            "hirebase": {
              "command": "uvx",
              "args": [
                "hirebase-mcp" 
              ],
              "env": {
                "HIREBASE_API_KEY": "" 
              }
            }
          }
        }
        
      • Cursor: Go to Settings > MCP > Add Server:
        • Mac/Linux Command: uvx hirebase-mcp (Adjust package name if needed)
        • Windows Command: cmd
        • Windows Args: /c, uvx, hirebase-mcp (Adjust package name if needed)
        • Set the HIREBASE_API_KEY environment variable in the appropriate section.
    • Running from source via Python (Alternative):

      1. Clone the repo and note where you clone it to
      2. Claude Desktop: Edit your claude_desktop_config.json:
      {
          "mcpServers": {
              "hirebase": {
                  "command": "uv",
                  "args": [
                      "run",
                      "--with",
                      "mcp[cli]",
                      "--with",
                      "requests",
                      "mcp",
                      "run",
                      "PATH_TO_REPO/src/hirebase_mcp/server.py"
                  ]
              }
          }
      }
      

Development

This project uses:

  • uv for dependency management and virtual environments
  • ruff for linting and formatting
  • hatch as the build backend

Common Tasks

# Setup virtual env
uv venv

# Install dependencies
uv pip install -e .

# install cli tools
uv tool install ruff

# Run linting
ruff check .

# Format code
ruff format .

Environment Variables

  • HIREBASE_API_KEY (required): Your API key for accessing the HireBase API. The server needs this to make authenticated requests for job data.

Testing

This project uses pytest for testing the core tool logic. Tests mock external API calls using unittest.mock.

  1. Install test dependencies:
# Ensure you are in your activated virtual environment (.venv)
uv pip install -e '.[test]'
  1. Run tests:
# Example command
pytest
