# LebenslaufHeld MCP Server

Official remote MCP server for [LebenslaufHeld.de](https://lebenslaufheld.de), a German CV and cover letter builder.

**Since July 2, 2026, LebenslaufHeld is Germany's first CV editor with its own MCP server.**

```
Endpoint:  https://lebenslaufheld.de/mcp   (Streamable HTTP, no auth, no account needed)
Docs (DE): https://lebenslaufheld.de/mcp   (open in a browser)
```

## What it does

This server lets any MCP client (Claude, ChatGPT developer mode, Cursor, Claude Desktop and others) work with real German-style CVs instead of plain chat text. The server itself calls **no LLM**: your client model writes the content, LebenslaufHeld renders and checks it deterministically.

### Tools

| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| `lebenslauf_erstellen` | Turns structured CV data from the chat into a real preview image and a watermarked PDF in one of 20 professionally designed templates, plus a claim link that opens the draft in the web editor |
| `ats_check` | Deterministic ATS readability check for an uploaded PDF (no AI guessing) |
| `vollstaendigkeits_check` | Rule-based completeness check against German application conventions (mandatory vs. recommended vs. legally optional fields) |
| `vorlagen_liste` | Lists all 20 templates with preview images |
| `beruf_beispiel` | Real example CVs for 38 professions as reference |

### Prompts

`lebenslauf_aufbauen`, `anschreiben_schreiben`, `lebenslauf_pruefen`: codified guides that walk the client model through German application conventions. They explicitly instruct the model not to invent numbers or work history.

## Connect

**Claude (works on the free plan):** Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → enter `https://lebenslaufheld.de/mcp`.

**ChatGPT (paid plans, developer mode):** Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → enable developer mode, then Settings → Connectors → Create → enter the same URL.

**Other MCP clients:** add the URL as a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP). No API key required.

## Pricing and privacy

Creating and checking CVs in the chat is free; generated PDFs carry a watermark. A clean download costs 1 credit in the web editor (from €2.99, no subscription). Drafts created via chat are stored for a maximum of 7 days under a random token, then deleted automatically. The server logs no IP addresses and no CV content in its usage events.
