Resume MCP Server vs Better Bear

get_resume

Return the full extracted text of a document, as {"text": "..."}. Note: takes a file path (see list_resumes), not a resume_id — use get_resume_profile or list_resumes to fetch structured data by resume_id instead. Returns {"error": ...} if path is not found.

search_resumes

Search across all documents for a keyword or phrase. Response includes total_count, items, has_more, next_offset, and message for pagination.

search_resumes_by_skill

Find which resumes list one or more given badge skills. Returns resume identity and matched skill names only — more token-efficient than list_resumes when filtering by skill. Accepts either a single skill string or a list of skills to filter by multiple at once. Each result includes: id, first_name, last_name, matched_skills. Response includes total_count, items, has_more, next_offset, and message for pagination.

list_work_experiences

List work experiences, optionally filtered to a specific resume, only current roles, and/or a keyword query matched against company name, position title, or achievement descriptions (absorbs the old search_work_experiences tool). Each result includes a resume_id field identifying which resume the experience belongs to. Response includes total_count and items for pagination. Returns {"error": ...} if resume_id is given but not found.

get_work_experience

Get a single work experience entry with its achievements. Returns {"error": ...} if id is not found.

list_achievements

List achievements (resume bullet points), optionally filtered to a specific resume and/or a keyword query matched against the achievement text (absorbs the old search_achievements tool). Response shape depends on the arguments given, to keep the common case cheap: - resume_id given, query omitted: bare {id, desc} per item (cheapest — you already know which resume these belong to). - query given, and/or resume_id omitted: each item also includes company_name, position_title, work_experience_id, and resume_id, since that context would otherwise be unrecoverable from the achievement alone. Response includes total_count and items for pagination. Returns {"error": ...} if resume_id is given but not found.

get_achievement

Get a single achievement (phrase skill) by ID. Returns {"error": ...} if id is not found.

list_skills

List badge skills (technologies, tools, languages), optionally filtered to a resume and/or a keyword query matched against the skill title (absorbs the old search_skills tool). Note: badge skills are deduplicated and shared across resumes by title, so — unlike work experiences, side projects, and education — items here do not carry a resume_id. Response includes total_count and items for pagination. Returns {"error": ...} if resume_id is given but not found.
