README
CI Python 3.11+ License: MIT Docker
Local-first job search automation: collect jobs from multiple boards, score them against your own criteria, store them in SQLite, review them in a React dashboard, query them through REST, and expose the same data to MCP clients.
Features
- Multi-board ingestion through JobSpy.
- Configurable keyword scoring with separate save and notification thresholds.
- SQLite persistence with bookmarks, applied state, blacklist, and retention.
- React dashboard for review, filtering, analytics, cleanup, and CSV export.
- Local semantic search through ChromaDB's bundled ONNX embedder.
- Telegram notifications for high-scoring new jobs.
- Unified ASGI web server for dashboard, REST API, and MCP.
- Docker Compose deployment with localhost-first network defaults.
Docker Quick Start
Create your runtime configuration:
cp config/settings.example.yaml settings.yamlEdit
settings.yaml, especiallylocations,queries,scoring, and optional Telegram settings.Start the scheduler and web server:
docker compose up -dOpen the dashboard:
http://127.0.0.1:8501
The same web process exposes REST at http://127.0.0.1:8501/api and MCP at
http://127.0.0.1:8501/mcp. Published ports bind to 127.0.0.1 by default.
For trusted LAN use, set JOB_SEARCH_WEB_BIND=0.0.0.0 in .env and keep
firewall rules tight.
