Search 13,000+ remote/hybrid jobs in Germany/EU, open a posting, get market stats. Free, no auth.
Scored across 3 tools
Each tool serves a clearly distinct purpose: retrieving one job by id, searching the job board, and fetching aggregate statistics. There is no meaningful overlap or ambiguity between them.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern using lowercase snake_case: get_job, get_job_statistics, and search_jobs. The naming is predictable and easy to navigate.
Three tools is a reasonable, well-scoped count for a read-only job board server. Each tool covers a distinct need without redundancy or bloat.
The tool surface covers the core job-board workflow: search with rich filters, retrieve full job details by id, and inspect aggregate statistics. For a read-only source with attribution requirements, there are no obvious missing operations.
Fetch ONE nomado24 job posting by id, with the complete v2 payload: the posting body where the source permits redistribution, per-field provenance (dataOrigin: who asserted each field, by which method, when), salaryOrigin, firstSeenAt, lastVerifiedAt with its verification method, and updatedAt (the last genuine content change). Returns an error result for an id that is not a live posting; expired and withdrawn postings are not served. Read-only, free, attribution required (see structuredContent.attribution).
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | Yes | Job id as returned by search_jobs ('job_<slug>'). A bare slug is also accepted |
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Discloses behavior beyond annotations: expired and withdrawn postings are not served, non-live ids return an error result, and read-only/free/attribution requirements are stated. It also mentions the source-permission caveat and the verification method for lastVerifiedAt.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is front-loaded with the action and object, and every clause carries needed caveats or payload fields. It is dense but not padded, and the length is justified by the absence of an output schema.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a one-parameter getter with no output schema, the description covers the return payload fields, error behavior for non-live ids, and attribution location. No significant gap remains for invocation or result interpretation.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
The input schema covers 100% of parameter semantics via the id description ('job_<slug>', bare slug also accepted). The description only restates that the id selects one posting and adds no syntax or format detail beyond the schema.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
States a specific verb ('Fetch') and resource ('ONE nomado24 job posting by id') and enumerates what the complete v2 payload contains. The by-id retrieval is clearly distinct from search_jobs and get_job_statistics.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description implies the tool is for retrieving a single known posting rather than searching or fetching statistics, and the schema notes ids come from search_jobs. It does not explicitly name sibling alternatives or exclusion conditions, so it is clear but not fully explicit.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Get aggregate statistics (active jobs, new-this-week/month, top sources, salary ranges) for nomado24's remote-jobs board. No input required.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
No parameters | |||
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already cover the safety profile (readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false), lowering the bar. The description adds useful context by listing the statistics categories returned, but it does not disclose details like data freshness, possible overlap between new-this-week and new-this-month counts, or the response shape.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
One front-loaded sentence: the verb and resource come first, followed by a compact parenthetical list of statistics types and a short input note. Every word earns its place and nothing repeats the title or the schema.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a 0-parameter, read-only statistics endpoint with no output schema, the description adequately covers what the tool does, what data it returns, and that no input is needed. The only gap is the absence of explicit routing guidance between this tool and search_jobs, though the aggregate-vs-search contrast is reasonably evident.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
With zero parameters and 100% schema coverage, there is nothing for the schema to document. The description reinforces this with 'No input required,' which is exactly the right semantic signal for a no-parameter tool, justifying the baseline-4 score.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description uses a specific verb+resource ('Get aggregate statistics... for nomado24's remote-jobs board') and enumerates exactly what is included (active jobs, new-this-week/month, top sources, salary ranges). The aggregate-stats framing clearly separates it from get_job (single job) and search_jobs (search), though it does so implicitly rather than by naming the siblings.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The only usage guidance is 'No input required,' which correctly tells the agent that no parameters are needed. However, there is no explicit statement of when to choose board-level statistics over search_jobs or get_job; the agent must infer the intent solely from the word 'aggregate.'
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
Search nomado24's remote/hybrid job board. Read-only, free, attribution required (see structuredContent.attribution). Answers over one of two contracts, chosen by the arguments you send. Send only q/language/page/per_page and you get the legacy v1 result shape with page-based paging. Send any structured filter (country, applicant_region, work_arrangement, employment_type, seniority, skills, salary_min/max, published_after, verified_after, source, company, sort, include_total) or a cursor and you get the v2 contract: richer job objects, per-posting provenance (salaryOrigin, firstSeenAt, lastVerifiedAt, verification.method, updatedAt), a corpus changeWatermark, a snapshotId and keyset paging via pagination.nextCursor. The two are mutually exclusive: page plus a structured filter is refused rather than silently resolved. Structured results omit the posting body and the per-field dataOrigin to stay cheap to read; call get_job for those. A filter nomado24 cannot answer honestly is refused with the reason, never answered with the unfiltered corpus. For the same reason pagination.total is null (totalRelation 'not_computed') whenever a post-projection filter (skills, seniority, salary bounds, employment_type=unknown) is in play — a null total is deliberate, not an error.
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| q | No | Free-text search over job title/company/tags | |
| page | No | 1-based page number, default 1 | |
| sort | No | One of published_desc, verified_desc, salary_asc, salary_desc. Default published_desc | |
| cursor | No | Continuation cursor from pagination.nextCursor. Send it ALONE (with per_page at most), never alongside filters: the cursor already carries the filter set it traverses | |
| skills | No | Skill slugs, lowercase kebab-case (react, node-js) | |
| source | No | Feed/source ids, lowercase kebab-case | |
| company | No | Company name, exact match, case-insensitive. Aggregated postings carry no verified employer identity | |
| country | No | Where the ROLE sits, ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 uppercase (DE, US) | |
| language | No | Filter by job content language | |
| per_page | No | Results per page, 1-25, default 20 | |
| seniority | No | Seniority. 'unknown' means the field is absent in the response, not a stored value | |
| salary_max | No | Upper bound in normalized ANNUAL EUR (gross) | |
| salary_min | No | Lower bound in normalized ANNUAL EUR (gross). Matches jobs whose salary interval overlaps it | |
| skills_match | No | How to combine skills. Requires skills | |
| include_total | No | Whether to compute a total. 'exact' returns a number only when the database saw the whole predicate. With a post-projection filter active (skills, seniority, salary_min/salary_max, employment_type=unknown) the total is withheld: total is null and totalRelation is 'not_computed', because the base count would answer a different question than the one asked. Only at the count ceiling does 'exact' downgrade to 'estimated'. | |
| verified_after | No | RFC 3339 date-time. Compares against the SAME value the response reports as lastVerifiedAt | |
| employment_type | No | Employment type. 'unknown' means the field is absent in the response, not a stored value | |
| published_after | No | RFC 3339 date-time, e.g. 2026-08-01T00:00:00Z | |
| salary_currency | No | ISO 4217. Only EUR: every salary is normalized to EUR at ingest and no conversion is performed | |
| applicant_region | No | Where a CANDIDATE may be: WORLDWIDE, EU or an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code. EEA/DACH/EMEA are refused, nomado24 does not classify them | |
| work_arrangement | No | Work arrangement. The board serves remote and hybrid postings only, so these are the only two values |
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, and non-destructive behavior, but the description adds substantial behavioral context beyond them: attribution is required, unanswerable filters are refused rather than silently resolved, and a null pagination.total is a deliberate signal, not an error. These disclosures prevent an agent from misinterpreting common edge cases.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
Though the description is long, it is dense and every sentence earns its place given the tool's 21 parameters and two contracts. It is front-loaded with the core purpose and uses clear enumerations for contract-switching arguments and v2 result fields. There is no filler or repetition of schema descriptions.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
With no output schema present, the description takes on the burden of explaining return shapes, and it does so thoroughly: v1 page-based paging, v2 provenance fields, changeWatermark, snapshotId, keyset paging, and the meaning of a null total. It also names the sibling for omitted data. For a tool of this complexity, the description is effectively complete.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Input schema coverage is 100%, so the baseline is high, but the description goes further by explaining contract-level parameter semantics that the schema cannot express: which parameter combinations select the v1 vs v2 result shape, why cursor must be sent alone, and which filters trigger the null-total behavior. This is critical meaning beyond the individual parameter descriptions.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description opens with a specific verb and resource: 'Search nomado24's remote/hybrid job board.' It then distinguishes itself from the sibling get_job by explaining that posting bodies and per-field dataOrigin are omitted from structured results and should be retrieved via get_job. This makes the tool's purpose and scope immediately identifiable.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description gives explicit conditions for choosing between the v1 and v2 contracts: sending only q/language/page/per_page yields v1, while any structured filter or cursor yields v2. It also states that page plus a structured filter is mutually exclusive and will be refused, and it names get_job as the alternative for fuller job details. This is unusually actionable routing guidance.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
