upwork-submit

upwork-submit is a skill for Claude Code from suxrobGM/jobpilot. It costs 34 tokens per session (1,145 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for sending an already approved proposal to Upwork, an online marketplace for freelance work. It checks that the proposal is still a draft and requires the user to approve the Connects cost before sending.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for submitting a reviewed JobPilot proposal to an Upwork job. It is not for writing the proposal or submitting one that has already been sent.
Why use it?
It prevents accidental duplicate submissions and stops the agent from spending Upwork application credits without clear permission. It also checks for existing invitations or applications first.

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

upwork-submit 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 23d 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 — 108 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Submit an Upwork Proposal

Take a proposal the user already reviewed in JobPilot and submit it to Upwork. This spends the user's Connects. Never submit without showing the cost and getting an explicit yes in this conversation.

Setup

  1. Follow ../_shared/setup.md.
  2. Follow ../_shared/upwork-mcp.md: confirm the tools are connected and resolve ORG_UID.

Step 1: Load the draft

jobpilot-api GET "/api/upwork/proposals/$ARG"

Require .status == "draft". Anything else → stop and say what the status is; a submitted proposal must not be sent twice.

Require a non-empty .proposalText and a .jobUrl. Missing either → tell the user to draft it first with the upwork-proposal skill, then stop.

Step 2: Check for an existing invitation or proposal

Mandatory. Never skip. Upwork rejects a create on a job the user was invited to or already applied to, with error VJ-JA-10, and the turn is wasted.

  1. list_freelancer_proposals action invitations - is there an invitation for this job?
  2. list_freelancer_proposals action list - is there already a proposal for it?

An existing proposal → stop and tell the user; do not submit again. An invitation → use manage_proposals action accept_invitation with the invitation's id instead of create, and confirm with type proposal_accept_invitation.

Step 3: Build the preview

manage_proposals action create with:

  • job_reference - the numeric job id, not the ~02… ciphertext. Resolve it from the proposal's jobUrl via find_jobs action get if the id is not already in the brief.
  • cover_letter - the proposal's proposalText. Max 5000 characters; if it is longer, stop and ask the user to shorten it rather than truncating their words.
  • charged_amount - the bid, as a number.
  • answers - the proposal's screeningAnswers. The preview lists the job's screening_questions; if it asks something the stored answers do not cover, stop and ask the user rather than inventing an answer.

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.
