CV Forge MCP Server

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for CV Forge. Lets AI assistants generate professional CVs as PDF/DOCX from conversation data.

How It Works

1. You describe your experience to the AI (or paste LinkedIn profile text)
2. AI fills in the CV template using the generate_cv tool
3. AI calls generate_pdf or generate_docx to produce the document
4. You get a PDF/DOCX file and a link to the visual editor for manual tweaks

The MCP server automatically pulls and starts the CV Forge Docker container — no manual setup needed.
