MCP Server Setup

The Trackly CLI includes a built-in MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. This lets Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible clients query your job data directly.

Start it manually with trackly mcp, or add one of the configs below.

~/.claude/settings.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trackly": {
      "command": "trackly",
      "args": ["mcp"]
    }
  }
}

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trackly": {
      "command": "trackly",
      "args": ["mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Remote MCP Server

New

Connect from any MCP client without installing the CLI. Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and any tool that supports Streamable HTTP transport.

1Create an API key at Settings > API Keys

2Add the remote server in your MCP client

Server URL + Auth Header

https://mcp.usetrackly.app/api/mcp

Authorization: Bearer trk_your_key_here

Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trackly": {
      "url": "https://mcp.usetrackly.app/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer trk_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

10 tools: job search, company lookup, contacts, natural language queries, status updates, and more.

Agent Integration

Once the MCP server is configured, Claude Code and Cursor can access your Trackly data natively. Ask questions in natural language and your agent will use the Trackly tools to fetch real-time job data.

Example prompts

"Find me product manager roles at Series B+ companies in New York"

"What new engineering jobs were posted today?"

"Show my application stats and pipeline"
