Cvx MCP Server

Structured input. Professional output. To the power of X. CVX turns plain YAML into a professionally designed CV PDF - one command, fully local, no accounts; your data never leaves your machine. Use it two ways: edit the YAML yourself, or have any AI assistant write it for you from your existing CV - CVX validates the files and tells the assistant exactly what to fix.

People who work with ats, pdf and resume and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in JavaScript.

06 · Cvx FAQ

What is Cvx?

Structured input. Professional output. To the power of X. CVX turns plain YAML into a professionally designed CV PDF - one command, fully local, no accounts; your data never leaves your machine. Use it two ways: edit the YAML yourself, or have any AI assistant write it for you from your existing CV - CVX validates the files and tells the assistant exactly what to fix.

Is Cvx still maintained?

Yes - as of 2026-09-18, its last commit was 2026-09-12 and it shipped 10+ releases in the last 90 days. We re-verify nightly.

How do I install Cvx?

Run `npx -y @hrtips/cvx`. The README documents one environment variable (SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH) to set first. Set SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH before connecting. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.

Does Cvx run locally?

Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via npx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
