ai-job-search: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/job-scraper/SKILL.md

job-scraper is a skill for Claude Code from suraj-davariya/ai-job-search. It costs 75 tokens per session (2,416 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A job-search skill that uses web search to find postings on the job portals you configure, removes duplicates, rates their likely fit, and presents new matches.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to search for new jobs, run a broad or focused search, review matches by relevance, and work with pasted postings when a listing cannot be fetched.
Why use it?
It avoids repeatedly reviewing the same listings and applies your configured location and date rules consistently. It does not depend on one country or one fixed job website.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

job-scraper scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 159 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Purpose

This file is the Plane 1 knowledge anchor for the job search workflow (ARCH-0008, ARCH-0010). As a Plane 1 skill it lives under .claude/skills/job-scraper/ and provides the AI assistant with structured knowledge — it does not execute binaries or scrape via compiled code. The skill queries whatever job portals the user has configured, deduplicates results, performs a lightweight fit assessment, and presents new matches sorted by relevance. It covers REQ-1001 through REQ-1012.

The search core is country-agnostic (DEC-012, ADR-0004, NFR-0007): web search is the universal mechanism. No portal, country, locale, or site: string is hardcoded here — every target comes from the companion search-queries.md config. Pasted postings are a first-class input, never a fallback (DEC-011). The skill never fabricates postings (REQ-1012, ARCH-0007).

Trigger Phrases

  • "Search for jobs" / "Find new jobs" / "Any new postings?"
  • "Scrape job boards" / "Run a job search"
  • /search (optionally with a focus area, e.g. /search data science)
  • /scrape
  • "Search broadly" / "Run all my queries"
  • Any phrase about discovering new job postings

Companion Files

File When to Read
search-queries.md (this skill's folder) Always — the query strategy, portals, geography, and location-filter tiers come from here (data-req §17)
job_scraper/seen_jobs.json Always — the deduplication registry (data-req §10); create {"seen": {}} if missing
job_search_tracker.csv (repo root) Always — extract already-applied company+role pairs for dedup (REQ-1002)
01-candidate-profile.md (job-application-assistant skill) When forming the quick-fit signal — to know the user's core skills

This skill never modifies search-queries.md; it only reads it.


Contract — Steps by Requirement

Invocation (REQ-1001)

  • Default (/search, no argument): run the top 3 priority categories (Priority 1–3) from search-queries.md.
  • Focus argument (e.g. /search data science): prioritize the query categories that match the focus term, then fill with the highest-priority remaining categories.
  • "broad" (/search broad): run all query categories (Priority 1–4).
  • Always load state (below) before issuing any search.
  • No country-specific or portal-specific identifier is hardcoded in this skill; the breadth selection operates over whatever categories the user's config defines.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
