### Description (declared)

# jobscan-mcp

[![M8ven Score](https://m8ven.ai/badge/mcp/aminafara123-jobscan-mcp-1c9wqy?v=98cb6d9d6c8106d3d0ccca8da34b74ff)](https://m8ven.ai/mcp/aminafara123-jobscan-mcp-1c9wqy)

An MCP server over my [job-scan-automation](https://github.com/aminafara123/job-scan-automation) dataset: the daily market scan behind [uae-remote-jobs-daily](https://github.com/aminafara123/uae-remote-jobs-daily), exposed as tools that any MCP-capable AI client can call.

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard for giving AI models controlled access to tools and data. This server is the pattern in miniature and in production: my own dataset, four read-only tools, and a model on the other end that can suddenly answer questions like "any new GRC postings this week?" with real data instead of guesses.

## Tools

| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| `latest_report()` | Full text of the most recent daily scan |
| `search_jobs(query, days)` | Search postings across the last N days of reports, links included |
| `market_stats(days)` | Per-day relevant/new counts: the pulse of the niche market |
| `is_seen(company, title)` | Whether the scanner's dedupe memory already knows a posting |

## Setup

```bash
pipx install jobscan-mcp
```

`uvx jobscan-mcp` works too if you prefer no install. Hacking on a clone instead:

```bash
python3 -m venv .venv
.venv/bin/pip install mcp
```

It reads `~/aiProjects/aminWork/job-research/scraper`. Point `JOBSCAN_DATA_DIR` at your own data folder if your copy lives somewhere else.

Wire it into Claude Code:

```bash
claude mcp add jobscan -- jobscan-mcp
```

Running from a clone, point it at the venv instead:

```bash
claude mcp add jobscan -- /path/to/jobscan-mcp/.venv/bin/python /path/to/jobscan-mcp/jobscan_mcp.py
```
