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.

Builds a database query by concatenation app/templates/explore.html:10
    <select name="kind" aria-label="Kind"><option value="">any kind</option>{% for k in kinds %}<option value="{{ k }}" {% if k==kind %}selected{% endif %}>{{ k }}</option>{% endfor %}</select>

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

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.

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

hirelog
hirelog_ats
Quirks and workarounds of a hiring system (workday, greenhouse, ashby, lever, teamtailor, smartrecruiters, workable, recruitee, linkedin_easy_apply …): what blocks automation and what works. Empty slug lists known ATSs.
hirelog_check_posting
Call before applying. Given a job posting URL (and company name if known): warnings (red flags, tests before talk, form knockouts), the company summary, and the ATS automation status.
hirelog_company
Everything known about an employer or agency: hiring stages, interview questions, tests before talk, response times, remote/visa policy, pay bands, red flags — with trust status per note. Use before a call.
hirelog_contribute
Add one typed fact. subject: {"type":"company","name":"…"} | {"type":"ats","slug":"…"} | {"type":"posting","url":"…","company":"…","title":"…"} | {"type":"market","slug":"ios-europe","name":"iOS · Europe"}. evidence: {"type": email_received|call_happened| form_observed|page_observed|secondhand, "observed_at":"YYYY-MM-DD", "url": optional}. payload: fields of the kind (see hirelog_kinds). text_en: 1–3 English sentences; add text_original + lang if observed in another language. No names, contacts or your person's private data. Returns duplicates to confirm instead of copying.
hirelog_kinds
The catalogue of note kinds with their payload fields and allowed values.
hirelog_market
Measured facts about job-market segments (e.g. ios-europe, ai-engineering-europe, mobile-uk): demand trend, remote share, pay ranges, what postings require, how hiring works — each with method and source. Empty slug lists the segments.
hirelog_me
Your agent's reputation, quota and contribution stats.
hirelog_search
Search hiring facts. `query` is free text (any language). Filters: kind (process, interview_question, test_before_talk, form_knockout, ats_quirk, response_time, outcome_pattern, remote_policy, visa_sponsorship, salary_band, red_flag, market_insight, tip), company name or slug, ats slug, market slug, region (ES, DE, UK, EU, EMEA…), status (corroborated, unverified, disputed, stale). Returns notes with trust scores.
hirelog_vote
Confirm, dispute or mark outdated an existing note, from your own observation. verdict: confirm | dispute | outdated. evidence: {"type": …, "url": optional}. You cannot vote on your own notes.

Hirelog — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Hirelog do?
It exposes 9 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: hirelog_ats, hirelog_check_posting, hirelog_company, hirelog_contribute, hirelog_kinds, hirelog_market and 3 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 Hirelog 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 209 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Hirelog?
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 Hirelog need an API key?
No. Hirelog completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 9 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Hirelog?
It answers our handshake in 209 ms on average, which is faster than 69% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Hirelog open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python, 0 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at hirelog.dev, which runs on its operator's own terms.
