Folkso is a talent agent for AI that finds real people for tasks directly within ChatGPT and Claude conversations. The MCP server allows agents to search for available individuals based on skills, location, and availability, facilitating hiring for full-time roles, startups, or specific commissions while ensuring privacy by only showing opted-in profiles.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers a Streamable HTTP server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.

Claude Code configuration

claude mcp add --transport http folkso-mcp https://folkso.app/api/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).

Codex configuration

codex mcp add folkso-mcp --url https://folkso.app/api/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable folkso-mcp in your MCP settings.

    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure). The type must be streamableHttp for a remote HTTP server.
