Overview

AI-generated overview

Connects an AI assistant to the JobGPT platform to search jobs, auto-apply, generate tailored resumes, track applications and draft recruiter outreach.

What you can do
Search and match jobs, view job details, and import postings from a URL or save them to applications. Create and manage job hunts with filters and auto-apply settings. View and update profile, salary details and credit balance. List, update and trigger applications, and read application statistics. Upload, list, delete and generate AI-tailored resumes, and score resume-to-job match. Find recruiters and referrers, list sent outreach and send outreach emails.
When to use it
Useful for job seekers who already use JobGPT and want to run searches, applications, resume tailoring and recruiter outreach from an AI assistant instead of the web app.
Requirements
A JobGPT account and API key from the account page, supplied as JOBGPT_API_KEY for the local npm package (Node.js 18+) or as an Authorization header for the hosted endpoint; browser OAuth login is an alternative. Network access to the JobGPT API; credits are needed for some operations.
Before you install
The API key is a secret and grants access to your JobGPT account. Auto-apply and resume generation consume paid credits. The server can submit job applications, send outreach emails to recruiters, and update or delete profile, salary, application and resume data. Resume files and job URLs are sent to the JobGPT service.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open JobGPT - Job Search Automation & Auto Apply in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

JobGPT MCP Server

The official MCP server for JobGPT — auto apply & search jobs, generate and manage custom tailored resumes, and track applications directly from Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible AI tool.

[JobGPT Server MCP server]

What You Can Do

Ask your AI assistant things like:

  • "Find remote senior React jobs paying over $150k"
  • "Auto-apply to the top 5 matches from my job hunt"
  • "Generate a tailored resume for this Google application"
  • "Apply to this job for me - <job_url from company website, greenhouse workday or linkedin, etc>"
  • "Show my application stats for the last 7 days"
  • "Find recruiters for this job and draft an outreach email"

The MCP server connects your AI assistant to the full JobGPT platform — 34 tools covering job search, applications, resumes, outreach, and more.

Quick Start

There are two ways to connect, depending on your AI tool:

  • Browser login (recommended) — no API key, no JSON, no Node.js. Just add the server URL and sign in to 6figr in your browser. Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Codex CLI (codex mcp login), and ChatGPT Web (Developer Mode).
  • API key — for the ChatGPT Desktop app, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Continue, and manual config. Paste a key into the tool's config.

Get an API Key (only for the API-key method)

  1. Go to 6figr.com/account
  2. Scroll to MCP Integrations
  3. Click Generate API Key
  4. Copy the key (starts with sk_)

The browser-login method does not need this — it fetches your key for you after you sign in.

Setup by Client

Claude Desktop

Recommended — browser login (no API key, no JSON):

  1. Open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector
  2. Name it JobGPT and enter the URL https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp
  3. Click Connect — your browser opens a 6figr sign-in page
  4. Sign in and click Approve. Done — the JobGPT tools appear in Claude.

No terminal, no config file, no Node.js. This uses OAuth, so your API key never touches Claude's config — Claude gets a scoped token instead.

Alternative — API key via mcp-remote (for older Claude Desktop builds that don't show Connectors; requires Node.js 18+):

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "jobgpt": {      "command": "npx",      "args": [        "-y",        "mcp-remote",        "https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp",        "--header",        "Authorization:${AUTH_HEADER}"      ],      "env": {        "AUTH_HEADER": "Bearer your-api-key-here"      }    }  }}

Claude Code (CLI)

Recommended — browser login (no API key): add the server, then authenticate in your browser:

bash
claude mcp add jobgpt -t http -u https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp

Then run /mcp inside Claude Code, select jobgpt → Connect, and sign in to 6figr when the browser opens. Claude Code stores a scoped OAuth token — no API key needed.

Option A: One-liner with an API key (claude mcp add):

bash
claude mcp add jobgpt -t http -u https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp --header "Authorization: your-api-key-here"

Option B: Edit settings.json manually

Add to ~/.claude/settings.json:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "jobgpt": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp",      "headers": {        "Authorization": "your-api-key-here"      }    }  }}

Codex CLI (ChatGPT)

Recommended — browser login (no API key): add the server, then authenticate in your browser:

bash
codex mcp add jobgpt --url https://mcp.6figr.com/mcpcodex mcp login jobgpt

codex mcp login opens a browser to sign in to 6figr and approve access; Codex stores a scoped OAuth token (OAuth 2.1 + PKCE). No API key needed.

Alternative — API key via header:

bash
codex mcp add jobgpt --url https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer your-api-key-here"

ChatGPT

ChatGPT connects two different ways depending on where you add the server:

ChatGPT Desktop app — API key. Open Settings → Connectors → Advanced/Developer → Connect to a custom MCP and fill in:

  • Name: JobGPT
  • Type: Streamable HTTP
  • URL: https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp
  • Headers → Add header: Key Authorization, Value Bearer your-api-key-here

The desktop dialog authenticates by header (there's no browser-login button), so use your sk_ key here. Leave the env-var fields blank.

ChatGPT Web (Developer Mode) — browser login (OAuth). On the web app, enable Settings → Connectors → Advanced → Developer mode, then Add custom connector, name it JobGPT, and enter the URL https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp. ChatGPT runs the OAuth flow: sign in to 6figr in the popup and approve. No API key needed. (Developer mode is available on Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise, and Edu plans.)

Cursor

Go to Settings > MCP > Add new MCP server, or add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "jobgpt": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp",      "headers": {        "Authorization": "your-api-key-here"      }    }  }}

Windsurf

Go to Settings > Cascade > MCP > Add Server > Add custom server, or add to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "jobgpt": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp",      "headers": {        "Authorization": "your-api-key-here"      }    }  }}

Cline (VS Code)

Open the Cline MCP settings in VS Code and add:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "jobgpt": {      "type": "http",      "url": "https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp",      "headers": {        "Authorization": "your-api-key-here"      }    }  }}

Continue (VS Code / JetBrains)

Add to your Continue config (~/.continue/config.yaml):

yaml
mcpServers:  - name: jobgpt    type: http    url: https://mcp.6figr.com/mcp    headers:      Authorization: "your-api-key-here"

Alternative: Run Locally

If you prefer to run the server on your machine (requires Node.js 18+):

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "jobgpt": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "jobgpt-mcp-server"],      "env": {        "JOBGPT_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"      }    }  }}

Troubleshooting

"JOBGPT_API_KEY environment variable is required"

Your API key isn't being passed to the server. Make sure it's in the env block of your MCP config.

Tool calls failing with "API Error (401)"

Your API key is invalid or expired. Generate a new one at 6figr.com/account.

"You have run out of credits"

Some operations (auto-apply, resume generation) consume credits. Purchase more at 6figr.com/jobgpt.

Server not appearing in your AI tool

  1. Make sure Node.js 18+ is installed (node --version)
  2. Restart your AI tool after editing the config file
  3. Try running manually to check for errors: JOBGPT_API_KEY=your-key npx jobgpt-mcp-server

Debug mode

Add "DEBUG": "true" to your env config to see detailed API request/response logs in stderr.
