@theyahia/hh-mcp

MCP server for the hh.ru API — Russia and CIS job market. 19 tools covering vacancies, resumes, employers, salary statistics, dictionaries, autocomplete, and token diagnostics.

Responses are returned as compact, LLM-friendly summaries by default — pass raw: true to any search/detail tool to get the full hh.ru JSON.

Two Modes

Mode

What's available

Token needed?

No token

Vacancy search, vacancy by ID, similar vacancies, employers, salary stats, areas, roles, industries, metro, dictionaries, suggests, token check

No

With token

Everything above + resume search, resume by ID

Yes (HH_ACCESS_TOKEN)

Get a token at dev.hh.ru/admin. Note: resume search additionally requires an employer account with a paid resume-database subscription — applicant/anonymous tokens get a 403. Use validate_token to check what your token can do.

HTTP Mode (Streamable HTTP)

npx @theyahia/hh-mcp --http
# or
HTTP_PORT=8080 npx @theyahia/hh-mcp --http

Endpoint: http://localhost:3000/mcp (POST) · Health check: http://localhost:3000/health (GET)

HTTP mode is stateless and binds to 127.0.0.1 by default with DNS-rebinding protection on. To expose it, set HOST=0.0.0.0 and add your host/origin to HH_ALLOWED_HOSTS / HH_ALLOWED_ORIGINS, and put it behind your own auth.
