Candidate Search MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server built with FastMCP that provides tools for searching and filtering a database of developer candidates.
Overview
This MCP server exposes tools to search through a database of 20 sample developers with various skills, experience levels, and specializations. It's designed to demonstrate how to build an MCP server that provides data search and filtering capabilities.
Features
The server provides three main tools:
1. search_candidates
Search for candidates based on multiple criteria:
- skill: Search for specific technical skills (e.g., "Python", "React")
- min_experience: Filter by minimum years of experience
- max_rate: Filter by maximum hourly rate (USD)
- location: Filter by location (partial match)
- availability: Filter by availability (e.g., "Immediate", "2 weeks")
- specialization: Search for specific areas of expertise
2. get_candidate_details
Get detailed information about a specific candidate by their ID.
3. list_all_skills
Get a comprehensive list of all unique skills in the candidate database along with their frequency.
Sample Data
The server includes 20 diverse developer profiles including:
- Full Stack Developers
- DevOps Engineers
- Machine Learning Engineers
- Mobile Developers
- Security Engineers
- Cloud Architects
- And more...
Each candidate profile contains:
- Name and title
- Technical skills
- Years of experience
- Location
- Hourly rate
- Availability
- Areas of specialization
Installation
