You can keep your CV up to date automatically by connecting a MCP client to the CV Resume Builder MCP. It gathers data from your git activity, certifications, and other sources to generate ATS-friendly LaTeX CVs, so your resume reflects your latest work without manual edits.

How to use

You use this MCP server by configuring a MCP client (such as Claude Desktop or Kiro) to run the server locally. The client starts the MCP server through a runtime command and loads environment variables so the server can access your repositories and author information. Once connected, you can ask the server to fetch your git commits, pull completed Jira tickets (when configured), read your Credly badges, parse an existing resume, and generate an enhanced CV that combines all data sources into a single LaTeX document.

How to install

Prerequisites install and runtimes you will need:

Python 3.10+
uvx runtime (installed via the recommended setup)

Install the CV Resume Builder MCP package if you choose the pip route (optional for local testing):

pip3 install cv-resume-builder-mcp

Configuration and running via uvx (recommended)

Configure your MCP client to run the CV Resume Builder MCP using uvx. This will download and run the latest version from the package repository.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cv-resume_builder": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["cv-resume-builder-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "AUTHOR_NAME": "your-git-username",
        "REPOS": "default:/absolute/path/to/your-repo"
      }
    }
  }
}

For Claude Desktop or Kiro IDE users

      "args": ["cv-resume-builder-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "AUTHOR_NAME": "your-git-username",
        "REPOS": "default:/absolute/path/to/your-repo"
