MCP tools · 46 exposed · ~6,142 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Applystead exposes 46 tools: search_jobs, get_company_jobs, check_job_posting, whoami, get_account, and 41 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 6,142 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the Applystead MCP server require authentication?
