Wellfound Scout MCP

by Ying-byte

Wellfound Scout MCP

Standard job-search MCP for wellfound.com.

Fills the gap when the board has no official seeker MCP / Jobs API / RSS. Works with any MCP Host (Cursor, Claude Desktop / Code, Codex, Zhencheng Agent, …).

Publish status: Protocol + docs + standalone runner bundle — no Zhencheng monorepo required at runtime.

Quick start

cd zc-scout-channels
npm i
cd wellfound
node stdio_mcp_server.mjs

Related MCP server: NoDesk Scout MCP
