Resume Booster Job Board — MCP server

Job search over employers' own hiring systems. Search with no key; a free key opens every read tool. board_stats, search_jobs, search and fetch answer with no key at all, so a fresh connection works on its first call from any host.

Verify: ask your agent to call board_stats. It answers with no key and says how many free calls are left today.

• Server address: https://bwhdazbotpblihdxcmho.supabase.co/functions/v1/agent-mcp — this address is on Supabase, the company that hosts our server; it is ours. Paste it exactly as it is (do not add /mcp). It is a plain web address your agent talks to (MCP over Streamable HTTP, one POST per message, no session to keep); there is nothing to install.
• Tools: 15 — search_jobs, get_job, get_jobs, check_jobs_open, check_apply_support, board_stats, employer_hiring_record, employer_growth, key_status, debug_search, search, fetch, fit_resume, request_application, application_status
• The how-to, per app, with a Test the server button: https://resumebooster.work/agents
• Free key: https://resumebooster.work/data-api
• One server, four names: resumebooster-job-board is what initialize answers, resumebooster is the install name in every block below, Resume Booster is the name you type into Claude's or ChatGPT's own dialog, and work.resumebooster/jobs is the name reserved for the MCP Registry (not published yet).

A https://resumebooster.work/jobs?job=<id> link's id is the argument get_job, fetch, check_apply_support and request_application take.

Claude, Claude Desktop and ChatGPT have no field for a key. They sign you in instead — but only while the server's sign-in service is switched on. When it is off, a tool that needs your account answers in words (no Connect card), and board_stats, search_jobs, search and fetch still answer. Today's state: press Test the server on https://resumebooster.work/agents, or run

curl -s -X POST https://bwhdazbotpblihdxcmho.supabase.co/functions/v1/agent-mcp -H 'content-type: application/json' -H 'mcp-protocol-version: 2025-06-18' -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-06-18","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"curl","version":"0"}}}' | jq '.result._meta["work.resumebooster/sign-in"].state'

which prints "on", "off" or "unknown" — the same word the page shows (the server reads the sign-in service's own metadata at https://bwhdazbotpblihdxcmho.supabase.co/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server/auth/v1 and caches the answer briefly).

Tiers

The unkeyed allowance is 25 free calls a day per network address — an office, a home connection or a chat service's own servers count as one address, so from Claude or ChatGPT the number left can start lower because other people share it.

Install

Pick your app. Every block but Zed's works with no key on its first call (Zed asks you to sign in when no key is set — its section says what to do); the keyed variant under a block is optional.

Claude (claude.ai, Claude Desktop, Claude on your phone)

1. In Claude, open Customize, then Connectors.
2. Click Add custom connector. On a Team or Enterprise plan there is no such button: an owner adds the connector under Organization settings > Connectors (Add, then Custom; if it asks for the connector type, Web), and you then find it under Customize > Connectors with the "Custom" label and click Connect.
3. If it asks for a Name, type Resume Booster.
4. Paste this address into MCP server URL: https://bwhdazbotpblihdxcmho.supabase.co/functions/v1/agent-mcp — this address is on Supabase, the company that hosts our server; it is ours. Paste it exactly as it is.
5. If Claude asks about Authentication, choose Sign in when needed. If it asks about OAuth client, choose Register automatically. Claude may already show these as "Detected" — leave them. Do not choose No sign-in: Claude cannot change that later, so the tools that need your account would stay off until you remove the connector and add it again.
6. Click Add.
7. In a chat, click +, open Connectors, and switch Resume Booster on.
8. Ask Claude: Using Resume Booster, call board_stats and tell me how many jobs are open right now.

When sign-in is on — the first time Claude needs your account — to open a posting in full, to check a shortlist, or to apply — a Connect card appears in the chat. Click it, sign in to Resume Booster, press Allow, and Claude continues where it stopped.

How you know it worked: Under + → Connectors, Resume Booster is on. Ask "call board_stats": the answer names the number of open postings and a note that reads "unkeyed: N of 25 anonymous calls left today".

ChatGPT (developer mode)

1. In ChatGPT, open Settings, choose Security and login, and turn on Developer mode. If you do not see it, your account or workspace does not allow it yet.
2. Go to chatgpt.com/plugins and click the + button.
3. Type a name — Resume Booster — and a description — Live job board: search real openings from employers' own hiring systems.
4. Under Connection, paste this address as the MCP server URL: https://bwhdazbotpblihdxcmho.supabase.co/functions/v1/agent-mcp. Paste it exactly as it is — do not add /mcp at the end. The address is on Supabase, the company that hosts our server; it is ours.
5. Create the connection, and check the list of tools it found — there should be 15.
6. Start a new chat and add Resume Booster from the tools menu.
7. Ask: Search Resume Booster for nurse jobs in Texas and show me the first ten.

When sign-in is on — if a tool needs your account, ChatGPT shows its sign-in for Resume Booster; sign in and press Allow.

How you know it worked: Ask it to search for "nurse in Texas": 10 results with ids come back. ChatGPT's own search uses search and fetch — 10 results per search and the full text of any result — with no sign-in.

Claude Code

1. Copy this line and run it in your terminal (--scope user makes it available in every folder, not just this one): claude mcp add --transport http --scope user resumebooster https://bwhdazbotpblihdxcmho.supabase.co/functions/v1/agent-mcp
2. Start claude and type /mcp — resumebooster is listed as connected.
3. Ask: call board_stats — the answer names the number of open postings and says how many free calls are left today.

With a free key, for every project:

export RESUMEBOOSTER_KEY=<paste your key here>
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user resumebooster https://bwhdazbotpblihdxcmho.supabase.co/functions/v1/agent-mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer $RESUMEBOOSTER_KEY"

Or clone this repository: its .mcp.json is a project-scope server, so Claude Code asks once to approve it and you are connected. As a plugin (adds the /resumebooster:setup and /resumebooster:find-jobs skills):

/plugin marketplace add campbellaabbott-rgb/resumebooster-mcp
/plugin install resumebooster@resumebooster

The .mcp.json in this repo reads the key from the environment: ${RESUMEBOOSTER_KEY:-} expands to the key when RESUMEBOOSTER_KEY is set and to nothing otherwise, and the server answers an empty header as the unkeyed tier — so the same file works with a key and without one. The keyless variant, if you would rather no header be sent at all:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "resumebooster": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://bwhdazbotpblihdxcmho.supabase.co/functions/v1/agent-mcp"
    }
  }
}

When sign-in is on — without a key, the first tool that needs your account makes /mcp show ! Needs authentication; type /mcp and sign in in the browser (Claude Code 2.1.186 or newer can also run claude mcp login resumebooster).

How you know it worked: /mcp lists resumebooster as connected; "call board_stats" answers with the count and the unkeyed note; with a key, "call key_status" names your tier and calls left.

Cursor

1. Paste this link into your browser's address bar (GitHub does not make it clickable) — Cursor opens and asks you to confirm the server; the link holds only the address, never a key: cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=resumebooster&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2J3aGRhemJvdHBibGloZHhjbWhvLnN1cGFiYXNlLmNvL2Z1bmN0aW9ucy92MS9hZ2VudC1tY3AifQ==
2. Or paste the block below into ~/.cursor/mcp.json.
3. In Cursor's chat, ask: call board_stats.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "resumebooster": {
      "url": "https://bwhdazbotpblihdxcmho.supabase.co/functions/v1/agent-mcp"
    }
  }
}

With a free key, the same file names the variable and Cursor fills it in (${env:RESUMEBOOSTER_KEY} is resolved in headers), so the key never sits in the file:

export RESUMEBOOSTER_KEY=<paste your key here>
