FoundRole — AI Job Search & Application Tracker MCP for Claude & ChatGPT

Analyze a job from another site

jobs_analyze_external

Analyzes one job found outside FoundRole using the authenticated user's FoundRole profile and the same signals used for FoundRole jobs: resume match, missing skills, H-1B sponsorship history, E-Verify, ghost-job risk, posted compensation, and market salary estimates. Use tracker_add_external only when the user asks to save without analysis.

The input represents the direct posting URL and all job content already available in the conversation. The five text identity fields are required; every structured fact field is optional, with a fact the source does not state simply omitted (or null). The optional client_extraction object carries evidence-backed skills, technology, benefits, bonuses, seniority, industry, management, clearance, visa, and remote-scope labels when source excerpts for them exist. FoundRole validates the evidence, stores the client extraction separately, derives missing deterministic facts, and reports which values were provided, derived, accepted, rejected, or remain unknown.

The output includes comparisonRef; retain it exactly for a later jobs_compare call. The analysis is a decision aid, not a guarantee about sponsorship, legitimacy, compensation, or hiring outcome.

A4.4/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations only declare the write/safety profile (readOnlyHint=false, non-destructive, non-idempotent). The description goes well beyond that: it discloses that facts are validated, client extraction is stored separately, deterministic facts are derived, and results are reported as provided/derived/accepted/rejected/unknown, plus an explicit disclaimer that the analysis is a decision aid rather than a guarantee. No rate limits or failure modes are mentioned, so a 4 rather than 5.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Three paragraphs for a 16-parameter tool with a nested extraction object is proportionate, and the purpose plus the sibling alternative are front-loaded in the first sentence. The middle paragraph is dense but each sentence carries distinct information; minor redundancy around whether fields are omitted or null.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

An output schema exists, yet the description still flags the one output value that matters downstream (comparisonRef to retain for jobs_compare) without wasting words on the rest. Combined with required/optional rules, evidence requirements, storage behavior, and scope disclaimers, an agent has everything needed to call it correctly.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

With 100% schema coverage the baseline is 3, and the description adds real meaning: the five text identity fields are required, structured fact fields are optional and omitted/null when unstated, and client_extraction entries must be evidence-backed source excerpts rather than inferences. It does not clarify individual field semantics beyond the schema, keeping it at 4.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

States a specific verb and resource ("Analyzes one job found outside FoundRole") and scopes it precisely to external postings, contrasting with FoundRole-hosted jobs. It also names the sibling tool it is not (tracker_add_external), so an agent can route without opening either schema.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

Gives an explicit alternative and its selecting condition: "Use tracker_add_external only when the user asks to save without analysis." It does not, however, distinguish itself from jobs_details or jobs_search for hosted jobs, so the when-to-use matrix is one-directional rather than exhaustive.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
