Job Tracker MCP Server
Enables AI agents to manage a personal job application tracker, allowing users to list, add, update, and delete job applications with company, role, and status details through natural language.
README
Job Tracker
Personal job application tracker built with Next.js. Track company, role, status, CV/cover letter file paths, and feedback notes. Data is stored locally in data/jobs.json.
Getting Started
Start the development server:
npm install
npm run dev
Open http://localhost:3000 in your browser.
MCP setup (for Cursor agents)
A local MCP server exposes the job tracker REST API to Cursor agents on the same machine.
Prerequisites
- Install dependencies:
npm install - Start the app:
npm run dev(API must be running on port 3000)
Connect in Cursor
This repo includes .cursor/mcp.json. Reload Cursor or open Settings → MCP — the job-tracker server should show as connected.
To override the API URL, set JOB_TRACKER_API_URL in .cursor/mcp.json (default: http://localhost:3000).
