resmd MCP Server

Expose resmd as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server so AI agents and automation tools can programmatically create, edit, tailor, and export resumes.

Prerequisites

• Node.js 20+
• A running resmd instance (self-hosted or deployed)
• An MCP key generated from the resmd app

1. Generate an MCP Key

1. Open the dashboard and click your user menu (bottom-left)
2. Select MCP Keys
3. Enter a name for the key and click Generate
4. Copy the key immediately — it is only shown once

2. Configure Environment

# bash / zsh
export RESMD_API_URL=https://resmd.app
export RESMD_MCP_KEY=<your-mcp-key>

# PowerShell
$env:RESMD_API_URL = "https://resmd.app"
$env:RESMD_MCP_KEY = "<your-mcp-key>"

3. Build and Run

npm install
npm run build
node dist/server.js

4. Claude Code Configuration

Claude Code supports local MCP servers directly. Use the claude mcp CLI to register the server.

Against the hosted app:

claude mcp add resmd \
  --env RESMD_API_URL=https://resmd.app \
  --env RESMD_MCP_KEY=<your-mcp-key> \
  -- node /path/to/resmd-mcp/dist/server.js

Against a local instance:

claude mcp add resmd \
  --env RESMD_API_URL=http://localhost:3000 \
  --env RESMD_MCP_KEY=<your-mcp-key> \
  -- node /path/to/resmd-mcp/dist/server.js

To remove or re-add (e.g. to update the key):

claude mcp remove resmd

Note: Claude Desktop only supports cloud-hosted MCP servers. Use Claude Code for local MCP servers.

5. n8n / Make Integration

Use the MCP Client node (n8n) or HTTP module (Make) pointed at the MCP server running as a process. Alternatively, call the resmd HTTP API directly using the MCP key as a Bearer token:

Authorization: Bearer <your-mcp-key>
