What the code does

We read the source, 7 d ago · rules 995398eba69f

Evidence

Things with no honest explanation: a promise that contradicts the code, code that runs at install time while hiding what it does, data leaving the machine.

                "trap 'rm -rf \"$d\"' EXIT",
Capabilities

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.

    proc = subprocess.run(["ssh", target, "bash -s"], input=script, text=True)
    resolved = head if os.path.isabs(head) else os.path.normpath(os.path.join(cwd, head))

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

We found things in this code

Code changes quietly between releases, and nobody reads the diff of a dependency. We do, on every release — watch jobd and you get told the day something new turns up.

Connect this server

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add jobd -- uvx jobd
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jobd": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: JOBD_URL (Base URL of the jobd broker the MCP server talks to. Defaults to http://127.0.0.1:8765), JOBD_API_TOKEN (Bearer token; must match the broker's JOBD_API_TOKEN. Required unless the broker runs with JOBD_ALLOW_NO_AUTH=1).

jobd — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for jobd?
jobd runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package jobd was installed 710 times last week.
How do I connect jobd?
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 runs locally, so the command pulls jobd straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use jobd?
The pypi package jobd was installed 710 times in the last week. Week over week that is -0%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is jobd open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 5 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
