Codex + Job Booster

1. Configure Codex with remote MCP transport to the Job Booster URL.
2. Complete browser OAuth when prompted, or use a developer API key for headless setups.
3. Verify tools/list before scripting delete_resume or set_application_status.
4. Keep human confirmation in the loop for pipeline changes.

OAuth sign-in is recommended. Developer API keys from Settings → Developer work for clients that cannot open the browser consent flow. Confirm with you before delete_resume, set_application_status, or other mutating tools that change your pipeline.

• Pipeline templates

  search_jobs → check_fit → create_resume_for_job as a Codex task you rerun.

• API key fallback

  Bearer auth against /api/mcp when OAuth browsers are unavailable.

• Audit-friendly

  Log application IDs touched by each run for your records.

• Legacy tools

  get_jobs and track_job when you already have database job IDs.

Agents act on your Job Booster account—resumes, filters, radar companies, applications, and interview prep—only after you connect with OAuth.

• Job board
• Applications
• Resume builder
• Company guides
• MCP docs

• Update application status to Rejected for company X—confirm before set_application_status.
• Cancel schedule ID from list_schedules when I paste it.

Ask the agent to summarize planned changes before calling write tools. Job Booster MCP does not submit job applications on employer sites without you using the product’s apply flows—agents help you search, tailor, and track.

Is Job Booster preinstalled in ChatGPT or Claude?

No. Add Job Booster as a custom MCP connector and sign in with OAuth when the client opens the consent flow. We do not ship a marketplace directory listing.

Will the agent apply to jobs without asking me?

MCP helps you search, tailor resumes, track applications, and draft documents. Submitting applications on employer ATS sites still goes through Job Booster flows you control. Confirm before set_application_status or delete_resume.

Can agents read my entire inbox or LinkedIn?

Tools only access data in your Job Booster account—resumes, saved jobs, applications, radar companies, and related intel—not your unrelated email or social passwords.

Do I need an API key?

OAuth is preferred in interactive clients. Settings → Developer provides API keys for headless scripts that cannot open the browser login.
