claude mcp add --transport http sourcers-desk 'https://sourcerdesk.com/mcp'
{
"mcpServers": {
"sourcers-desk": {
"type": "http",

Sourcer's Desk API — documentation
Pay-per-call recruiting expertise for AI agents and developers: POST a role description, get back production-grade boolean/x-ray search strings the way a 20-year recruiter actually writes them.
Live endpoint: POST https://sourcerdesk.com/api/v1/boolean
- What you get: expanded title variants (OR'd, capped where noise starts), practitioner "shibboleth" skill terms, LinkedIn x-ray strings with exact-phrase locations, open-web resume strings with area-code location groups, iteration advice.
- Pricing: 3 free calls/day/IP, then ~$0.02 per call via x402 on three rails — 0.05 XNO (feeless Nano), or $0.025 USDC on Base or Polygon.
- Quality: blind A/B-evaluated against a bare same-model LLM before launch — the playbook engine was preferred 10/10. Methodology and caveats: EVAL.md.
- For recruiters using Claude or ChatGPT: add it as an MCP connector in about 30 seconds, no wallet needed — MCP.md.

What this repo is (and is not)
This is the public documentation. The playbook itself — the encoded judgment the API sells — is private and is not in this repository or any public one. The engine's outputs are yours to use freely; the rules that produce them are the product.
