MCP Resume and Cover Letter in Claude.ai and Claude Desktop connectors

Resumes and cover letters as Word files, from one stored profile. It keeps one structured profile, writes the resume as .docx trimmed to a page budget with the posting's keywords bolded where you actually have them, drafts a one-page cover letter whose every proof line is a verbatim bullet from that profile, and reports the gaps against a job description instead of filling them in.

The generated .docx is a one-hour download link rather than a path, so the practical habit is to download it the same session you ask for it, before the link expires.

Make me a one-page resume for this role and write the letter, direct tone.resume_create then cover_letter_create

There is no page-layout engine in pure JavaScript, so trimming runs on a word budget: 450 words of body text per A4 page, 540 in the compact style. Every role keeps its first bullet before any role gets a second, and every bullet dropped is named in the response.

Connect it, no install

https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/connect mints an anonymous token and prints a URL per server, including this one, shaped like https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/resume/t/<token>. That URL works with no headers: the token is in the path, not in an Authorization field this form does not have.

  1. Open https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/connect and copy the URL printed for MCP Resume and Cover Letter.
  2. There is no config file here: the Add custom connector form asks for a name and a Remote MCP server URL, with an Advanced settings section for an optional OAuth Client ID and Client Secret.
  3. Paste the URL as the Remote MCP server URL. Leave the optional OAuth Client ID and Client Secret blank; this endpoint does not use them.
  4. Click Connect, then turn the connector on for a conversation from the + button, Connectors.

Idle anonymous tokens are swept after 30 days. Since this route has no filesystem, a file MCP Resume and Cover Letter generates comes back as a download link that expires after one hour. A Pro key can replace the token in the same URL and removes the free-tier limits.

Claude.ai and Claude Desktop connectors notes worth knowing first

On an individual Pro or Max plan you add the connector yourself from Customize, Connectors. On Team and Enterprise it is the other way round: only an Owner or Primary Owner can add a custom connector, at Organization settings, Connectors, and members then connect to what the Owner added rather than pasting their own URL.

Free: profile, the modern style, markdown and HTML exports, 3 cover letters a month, postings up to 2,000 characters. Pro is $19 once, verified offline, and binds to the token after checkout.

Questions

Does this need OAuth?

No. Add custom connector offers an Advanced settings section with an OAuth Client ID and Client Secret, but the connect-by-URL route does not use it. Leave both blank: the token in the URL path is what authenticates.

I am on a Team or Enterprise plan and cannot add a connector.

That is documented, not a bug: on Team and Enterprise, only an Owner or Primary Owner can add a custom connector, at Organization settings, Connectors, Add, Custom, Web. After that, members connect to the URL the Owner added from Customize, Connectors.

Can I use my Pro key instead of the free anonymous token?

Yes. The token segment of the URL from /mcp/connect can be replaced with a Pro key, which removes the free-tier limits on MCP Resume and Cover Letter for that connector.

Why did a generated file come back as a link instead of opening?

The connector runs server-side with no filesystem of its own, so any file MCP Resume and Cover Letter produces is handed back as a download link that expires after one hour, rather than a path on disk.
