A remote MCP server adds OAuth 2.1 and verified auto-apply tools for job workflows
tom_doerr · x · 2026-07-28
The author launched a remote MCP server for job-application workflows with OAuth 2.1, dynamic client registration, and streamable HTTP support.
The server exposes ten tools, including resume scoring against a job description, job description analysis, resume optimization and translation, interview question generation, job search, cover letters, PDF builds, and autoapply. The post also explains a tricky engineering issue: application submission is not synchronous, so the system must independently verify whether an ATS actually registered the application instead of trusting the click itself.
A key takeaway is the distinction between intent and confirmed state. The tool returns pending when it cannot verify the submission, and the author notes that some ATSes redirect, swap DOM nodes, or silently drop required fields.
