@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@anzsco-mcpFind ANZSCO code for a React developer."
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
anzsco-mcp
Live endpoint:
https://mcp.anzsco.com.au/— no auth required, no install needed.
Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for anzsco.com.au — lets AI assistants search and explore Australian occupation codes (ANZSCO), visa pathways, state nominations, and the latest SkillSelect invitation round data.
Built as a Cloudflare Worker — stateless, globally distributed, free-tier friendly.
What it does
Australian skilled migration requires matching a job role to an ANZSCO occupation code. The right code determines:
Which visa subclasses you can apply for (189 / 190 / 491 / 482 / 186 / 494)
Which states and territories can nominate you
Which skills assessment authority assesses your qualifications
Your SkillSelect points and invitation probability
This MCP server exposes all of that as 8 AI-callable tools, so Claude (and other AI assistants) can answer questions like:
"Can a .NET developer apply for visa 189?"
"What ANZSCO code is a React developer?"
"Does NSW nominate civil engineers for subclass 190?"
"What was the latest SkillSelect points cutoff?"

8 Tools
Tool | Description | Example |
| Fuzzy search by job title or technology. Handles synonyms — |
|
| Full occupation detail: title, ANZSCO group, skills assessment authority, occupation lists (MLTSSL/STSOL/ROL), eligible visa subclasses |
|
| Occupation + visa eligibility combined — is this code on the skills list? What's the assessment pathway? |
|
| Does a given state currently nominate this occupation? Points bonus (+5 for 190, +15 for 491) |
|
| Most recent SkillSelect round: date, total invitations, breakdown by subclass, points cutoffs | (no params) |
| All occupations eligible for a given visa subclass |
|
| All occupations nominated by a given state |
|
| Side-by-side comparison of 2–5 occupation codes across visas, states, and lists |
|
