Returns: matching skills with their numeric ID, name and category. Use when: "Find the skill ID for n8n", "What automation skills exist?", "Search skills for react" |
| freelancer_list_skillsA | List the skills (jobs) currently on your own Freelancer.com profile. Returns: your skills with numeric ID, name and category. Args:
Use when: "What skills are on my profile?", "List my skills", "Do I have n8n listed?" |
| freelancer_add_skillsA | Add one or more skills (jobs) to your Freelancer.com profile, keeping your existing skills. Args:
Returns: confirmation. ⚠️ This modifies your real profile. Note: Freelancer enforces a maximum number of skills per account; adding past the limit will be rejected by the API. Use when: "Add n8n and Zapier to my skills", "Add skill 3112 to my profile" |
| freelancer_remove_skillsA | Remove one or more skills (jobs) from your Freelancer.com profile. Args:
Returns: confirmation. ⚠️ This modifies your real profile. Use when: "Remove PHP from my skills", "Drop skill 3 from my profile" |
| freelancer_set_skillsA | Replace your ENTIRE skill list with the provided skills. Any current skill not in the list is removed. Args:

| freelancer_list_profilesA | Fetch one or more of your Freelancer.com "specialty profiles" by their numeric profile IDs. Note: Freelancer's API has no endpoint that lists your profile IDs for you — you must already know the ID(s) (e.g. from the profile URL). This is a limitation of the public API, not this tool. Args:
Returns: profile details (name, tagline, hourly rate, description). Use when: "Show specialty profile 12345" |
| freelancer_create_profileA | Create a new Freelancer.com "specialty profile" (a focused sub-profile, separate from your main account profile). All fields are required by the API. Args:
Returns: created profile (including its profile_id). ⚠️ Creates real data on your account. Freelancer caps the number of specialty profiles; some account types (e.g. certain corporate accounts) cannot create any and the API will reject with "reached the limit for creating new profiles". Use when: "Create a specialty profile for AI automation" |
| freelancer_update_profileA | Update fields on one of your Freelancer.com "specialty profiles". Only the fields you supply are changed. Important: this edits a SPECIALTY profile identified by profile_id — it does NOT edit your main account profile (description/tagline/hourly rate shown on your public freelancer page). Freelancer's public API exposes no endpoint to edit the main profile; that is web-UI-only. Args:
Returns: confirmation. ⚠️ Modifies real data. The API enforces ownership: editing a profile_id you don't own is rejected. Use when: "Update specialty profile 12345's hourly rate to 40" |
