Last month I got tired of sending cold emails that nobody answered. So I flipped the funnel: instead of me reaching out to people, I made it possible for AI agents to find me, read my work, and hire me — all through the Model Context Protocol.
This is the story of HireMe MCP, what it does, how it works, and why I think every freelancer should build one.
The problem: portfolios don't talk to agents
Here's how hiring works in 2026 for a lot of people: a founder opens Claude or Cursor and asks "find me someone who can build an AI chatbot with pgvector." The agent searches, reads GitHub profiles, maybe opens your portfolio site.
And then it hits a wall. Your portfolio is HTML made for humans. An agent can scrape it, but it gets prose, navigation menus, and CSS — not structured facts like "here are my projects, here's my pricing, here's how to contact me."
