Connect your AI assistant to JobRipe

https://jobripe.com/api/mcp

Streamable HTTP transport (protocol versions 2025-03-26 to 2026-07-28). Without a key, the assistant can search jobs, read job details and company facts. With an API key it can also do what the key's scopes allow.

Add this to claude_desktop_config.json (Settings → Developer → Edit config), then restart Claude. It uses the open-source mcp-remote bridge, which needs Node.js.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jobripe": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://jobripe.com/api/mcp",
               "--header", "Authorization:${JOBRIPE_AUTH}"],
      "env": { "JOBRIPE_AUTH": "Bearer jrk_YOUR_KEY" }
    }
  }
}

Add a custom connector with the server address above and no authentication. The assistant can then search jobs and read job and company facts. JobRipe doesn't offer sign-in through connectors yet, so saving, alerts and applying need a key with Claude Code, Claude Desktop or your own client.

Answers are plain JSON. Older clients start with initialize; clients on the 2026-07-28 revision send the version in every request (and Mcp-Method / Mcp-Name headers) and may call server/discover.

  Company facts, business-register check, measured reply rates, review signal.

  Scope: none needed

• save_job

  Save a job to the person's list.

  Scope: saved:write

• create_alert

  Create an email job alert for a search.

  Scope: alerts:write

• apply_to_job

  Apply to a job that takes applications on JobRipe. Needs human_confirmed: true; a few a day.

  Scope: applications:write

• list_my_jobs

  Employers: your jobs with applicant counts.

  Scope: employer:jobs

  Employers: applicants for one job (full resumes stay in the dashboard).

  Scope: employer:jobs

• update_applicant_stage

  Employers: move an applicant or add a private note.

  Scope: employer:jobs

• Pay exactly as given. pay.published is the employer's own figure. pay.estimate comes from similar jobs: always call it an estimate (“est.”), never the employer's number. When both are empty, say the pay isn't published.
• Verified means verified. Only call a job verified when trust.level is verified. listed means a copy from a public job board that JobRipe can't confirm with the employer. Pass on caution flags.
• No invented numbers. Reply speed is measured only from applications sent through JobRipe, and star ratings exist only with 5 or more verified reviews. If a field is empty, the answer is “not enough data”.
• The person decides. Apply only after the person read the job and approved the exact cover note and answers, then send human_confirmed: true. Never set it on your own.
• Link back. Give the person the job's url so they can check it themselves.

• Use the API for the person who owns the key (or, without a key, for your own users' searches). Don't copy JobRipe's listings into another job board or database, and don't try to get around the limits with extra keys or addresses.
• No mass applying. Agents can send a few applications per person per day, only with that person's confirmation of each one.
• Keep keys secret. Anyone with a key can act as you within its scopes: revoke it at once at API keys if it leaks.
• Keys and their limits may be suspended for abuse. The site terms and privacy policy apply.
