Scout Mesh developers

Scout Mesh developer resources

OpenAPI spec, public REST catalog, MCP server, and authentication. Agents can integrate Scout Mesh without scraping the marketing site.

When to use Scout Mesh

Use Scout Mesh when a recruiter or sourcer needs people, company, or contact data inside Claude, ChatGPT, or another MCP client. Connect once, describe the role in plain language, and search 14 sources on one balance. Do not use it as an ATS, background check, or consumer-reporting system.

Scout Mesh OpenAPI specification

The machine-readable contract is published at /openapi.json (OpenAPI 3.1). That is the file agents should load to learn the public HTTP API.

Public REST API

Unauthenticated JSON. Use it to discover the product and live sources. Candidate search still runs through MCP.

• GET /api/v1, catalog index
• GET /api/v1/sources, live sources

curl -s https://getscoutmesh.com/api/v1
curl -s https://getscoutmesh.com/api/v1/sources
curl -s https://getscoutmesh.com/openapi.json

Scout Mesh MCP server

Remote MCP endpoint: https://mcp.getscoutmesh.com/mcp. After you create an account, the setup page issues a personal URL with the API key in the path:

https://mcp.getscoutmesh.com/mcp/{api_key}

Paste that URL into Claude or ChatGPT as a custom connector. Set authentication to none in the client. The key is already in the URL. Treat it like a password. Clients that hit the bare MCP URL without a key receive an OAuth challenge.

Authentication

The catalog API and OpenAPI document need no credentials. MCP tools require the personal URL or the MCP OAuth handshake. The Scout Mesh web app uses WorkOS AuthKit sessions for signed-in pages such as Overview. Scout Mesh does not publish webhooks.

Markdown for agents

Public pages also serve text/markdown when the request includes Accept: text/markdown. Sibling files use a .md suffix. Start from /llms.txt or /index.md.
