articles
search_articles
Search Jobsite's published marketing content — blog articles, head-to-head COMPETITOR COMPARISON pages (e.g. 'Jobsite vs Procore', 'Jobsite vs SiteDocs', 'Jobsite vs SafetyCulture'), and pillar guides. Use this whenever the user asks how Jobsite compares to a competitor ('how are you better than Procore', 'Jobsite vs SafetyCulture', 'why pick you over X'), or asks for a published article on a construction-safety topic. Returns matching articles with a relevant excerpt and a link to the full page. This is DISTINCT from lookup_jobsite_docs (product how-to) and search_training_source (OSHA regulatory). If nothing matches, say you don't have an article on it rather than inventing a comparison.
law
search_law_corpus
Search the VERBATIM authority corpus behind Jobsite's training: 29 CFR regulation text (per-section, with citations), the CA/WA/OR state rules for heat illness and wildfire smoke, plus OSHA interpretations and NIOSH/CDC/EPA technical guidance the training cites. Use this when the user asks what an authority ACTUALLY SAYS — exact rule language, a specific citation ('what does 1926.501 require'), trigger heights, employer duties — and quote the returned text with its citation heading and jurisdiction. EVERY match carries an `authority` field: T1 is binding law, T2 is an agency interpretation and T3 is technical guidance. READ IT BEFORE YOU CHARACTERISE THE MATCH — quote a T2/T3 match as what that agency recommends or says, NEVER as what a regulation requires, and never call it a rule. This is DISTINCT from search_training_source (what Jobsite's TRAINING teaches, paraphrased) — prefer search_law_corpus when the user wants the source itself. The corpus spans the topics Jobsite trains on plus the authorities they cite, NOT all of 29 CFR: an empty result means 'not in the corpus', never 'no such rule exists'.
lookup
lookup_jobsite_docs
Look up how Jobsite (this product) works — features, UI navigation, terminology, account / billing, worker-side experience, what counts as a 'group' vs 'crew', etc. Use this for any 'how do I…' / 'where do I find…' / 'what does X mean in Jobsite' question. Returns matching sections from the curated product guide. NOT for OSHA / regulatory questions (use search_law_corpus or search_training_source) and NOT for tenant data lookups (use list_workers, list_expiring_certs, etc.). If a returned section is flagged todo:true, the topic is in scope but not yet documented — say so rather than inventing an answer.
osha
osha_recordability_check
Runs Jobsite's deterministic OSHA 29 CFR 1904 decision tree on the facts of an injury or illness: returns the proposed 300-log classification (or the questions still needed), the rationale with verbatim 1904 quotes, and any report-to-OSHA deadline (8 or 24 hours). Map the story to the answers; leave out anything not known — unknowns come back as questions, never guesses. Reads and writes no records.
regulatory
search_regulatory_news
Search recent regulatory / safety news from the Federal Register (filtered to OSHA) and the OSHA news RSS feed. Use for questions about recent rule changes, enforcement memos, or news that might affect a training course's content (e.g. 'any silica updates this year', 'recent fall protection rulemaking'). Returns titles, agencies, dates, URLs, and short summaries — pure pass-through, nothing is persisted. Prefer specific multi-word queries built around an OSHA topic or standard ('respirable silica §1926.1153', 'lockout tagout enforcement', 'fall protection 1926.501'). NOT for tenant-data questions; NOT for general OSHA reference (use search_training_source for established standards).
start
start_jobsite_workspace
Create a new Jobsite workspace that holds only sample data (a sample crew, jobs and safety records; nothing real) for the person you are helping, so they can try Jobsite without setting anything up. Returns a one-time claim link to give them: opening it lets them create their login (or sign in) and own the workspace. The link expires in 7 days, and an unclaimed workspace is then deleted. Exploring the sample data is free; adding real workers needs a Jobsite plan. Takes no personal details. Limited to 3 workspaces a day per network address. Optional: company_name, focus (safety or home services) and the company's trade.
toolbox
get_toolbox_talk
A ready-to-deliver construction toolbox talk from Jobsite's library of nearly 300 talks, in English or Spanish: title, talking points, a discussion question, duration, and the OSHA standards it is built on. Find one by topic or hazard in plain words ("trenching", "heat", "ladder setup") or by standard number ("1926.501"), or fetch one by talk_number. Returns the best match plus up to five other matching titles.

Jobsite Safety Reference (free) — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Jobsite Safety Reference (free) do?
It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_toolbox_talk, lookup_jobsite_docs, osha_recordability_check, search_articles, search_law_corpus, search_regulatory_news and 1 more. 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 Jobsite Safety Reference (free) working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 5 of 91 checks got a reply (5.5%), average response time 618 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Jobsite Safety Reference (free) as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Jobsite Safety Reference (free)?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Jobsite Safety Reference (free) need an API key?
No. Jobsite Safety Reference (free) completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Jobsite Safety Reference (free)?
It answers our handshake in 618 ms on average, which is faster than 17% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
