honest-cv runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 205 installs a week from pypi. Last commit 22 Oct 2026.
Honest, ATS-safe CVs and cover letters from a skill inventory you confirm yourself.
What the code does
We read the source, 11 h ago · rules 995398eba69f
What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.
subprocess.run([chrome, "--headless", "--disable-gpu", "--no-pdf-header-footer", f"--print-to-pdf={here/'chrome.pdf'}", (here / "cv.html").as_uri()], check=True, capture_output=True)

This code can reach further than it looks
We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.
