  The handler function for the 'search_jobs' tool, registered via @mcp.tool(). It captures all input parameters and passes them to the internal _search_jobs_logic function.

  Core implementation logic for the search_jobs tool. Instantiates JobSearchParams from inputs, makes HTTP GET request to HireBase API, handles errors, and returns JSON response.
