Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Jobstack MCP every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Available tools 2

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

job

get_job

Fetch one job posting by its source engine and native id, returned as { meta, job } with the same flat Job shape search_jobs yields. The id is the native upstream id as returned by that source in search results (NOT prefixed with the source name). Exception: for source="ats" the id is a composite "board:company:nativeId" string (e.g. "greenhouse:airbnb:7995153") so the lookup can round-trip to the right ATS board. Not every source supports single-job lookup — a search-only source returns a not_supported / not_found error.

jobs

search_jobs

Search job postings across every configured source and merge the results into one flat Job shape. Fans out in parallel to USAJOBS, Adzuna, Jooble, The Muse, Reed, and the ats engine (Greenhouse/Lever/Ashby/Workable/SmartRecruiters), then merges + sorts by postedDate (newest first) and paginates the combined set. Each Job has id, source, title, company, location, remote, url, description, postedDate, salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrency, department, and employmentType. The response envelope carries meta, the echoed query, sources_requested, an optional sources_errored map, total, count, limit, offset, and results. Use sources= to restrict to specific engines.

Jobstack MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Jobstack MCP do?

It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_job, search_jobs. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Jobstack MCP working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 243 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Jobstack MCP?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Jobstack MCP need an API key?

No. Jobstack MCP completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Jobstack MCP?

It answers our handshake in 243 ms on average, which is faster than 58% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Jobstack MCP open source?

We cannot say either way: written in JavaScript and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
