Prerequisites
1
Connect the MCP server
Follow Using the MCP Server to connect your MCP client with OAuth or an API key.
2
Confirm the application tools are visible
Ask your client to list the Reactive Resume tools. You should see tools such as
list_applications, create_application, update_application, attach_application_document, and draft_application_message.3
Decide how destructive actions should be handled
Tell your agent to ask before deleting applications, bulk-updating many records, or replacing attached documents.
Application Copilot tools require the same AI provider setup used by the app. Match scoring and resume tailoring work best when the application has a linked Reactive Resume and a job description.
Start with a pipeline review
Begin by asking the agent to inspect your current pipeline. This gives the agent valid application IDs and avoids duplicate records.Create applications
Usecreate_application when you already know the role details.
Import applications
Useimport_applications when you already have spreadsheet rows. The Application Tracker accepts up to 500 imported rows at a time.
Update stages and notes
Useupdate_application for structured changes and add_application_note when you want an activity timeline entry without changing other fields.
Attach sent documents
Use document attachment when you want the tracker to store the exact resume PDF or cover-letter PDF you sent for an application.attach_application_document accepts base64-encoded PDF bytes and contentType: "application/pdf". Some MCP clients hide that detail when they can read local files. If your client cannot read local files, upload the PDF from the web app instead.
