Use Curriculo ATS in Slack through MCP

On this page

Curriculo ATS does not have its own Slack app. You reach it from Slack through the Curriculo ATS MCP server: an AI assistant that runs in your Slack workspace and supports remote MCP connectors can call the same 25 tools that Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor use.

How do I use Curriculo ATS in Slack?

Add the Curriculo ATS MCP server, https://mcp.curriculo.me/mcp, as a connector in an assistant that works inside Slack and supports remote MCP servers over Streamable HTTP. Sign in with OAuth or a personal access token, then ask that assistant in a Slack message or thread to review candidates, move stages or schedule interviews.

What you need

  • A Curriculo ATS organization and a user who can sign in to it.
  • An assistant available in your Slack workspace that can add a custom remote MCP connector.
  • Permission in that assistant to add connectors. On a managed workspace this is usually an admin.

Connect

  1. In the assistant's connector or integration settings, add a custom MCP server.

  2. Enter the server URL:

    https://mcp.curriculo.me/mcp

  3. Complete the OAuth sign-in when prompted, or paste a personal access token as Authorization: Bearer <token> if the assistant asks for a header.

  4. Grant ats:read for read-only use, or ats:read and ats:write to let it act. See Scopes.

What you can ask

Everything the MCP tools cover, from a Slack message:

  • "Which applicants for the backend role scored highest this week?"
  • "Move Ada to the interview stage and draft a reply to her."
  • "What is sitting in each stage of my open roles?"

The full list is in the tools reference.

What it does not do

  • No automatic Slack notifications. Curriculo ATS does not post to Slack channels on its own. The assistant answers when someone asks it.
  • No separate Slack permissions. The assistant acts as the Curriculo ATS user who signed in, limited to the scopes on that token.

Anyone who can talk to the assistant in a channel may be able to use its connected tools. Prefer a read-only token in shared channels, and check how your assistant shares connectors between users.
