## MCP tools (4)

### `ats_detect` (~203 tokens)

Detect which applicant-tracking system (ATS) a company publishes its public job board on, and its board token. Reads the company's careers page (or a given careers_url) for a Greenhouse/Lever/Ashby/SmartRecruiters/Recruitee/BambooHR/Workday/Workable/Teamtailor/Personio/Jobvite/Breezy/Pinpoint/Rippling/iCIMS link; falls back to slug-probing the domain name against each board API that supports it. Does not read any private/Harvest-key ATS data — only what a public job board already exposes. Discoveries persist so repeat lookups for the same domain are instant.

Input parameters:

- `careers_url` (string): A specific careers-page URL to scan instead of guessing one from domain, e.g. "https://www.airbnb.com/careers".
- `domain` (string): Company domain, e.g. "airbnb.com" (no scheme, no path).

### `ats_jobs` (~418 tokens)

Fetch normalized job postings from a PUBLIC ATS board you already have the ats + board_token for (use ats_detect or ats_company_jobs if you only have a domain). Returns {found:false, reason:"board_not_found"} for an unknown board — never an empty jobs[] for that case. Lever/Ashby/BambooHR/Recruitee/Teamtailor/Breezy DO distinguish a real zero-job board (found:true, jobs:[]) from an unknown one; SmartRecruiters cannot (ambiguous:true); Pinpoint and iCIMS have not had a confirmed-empty real board observed live, so a 0-job result from those two is NOT independently confirmed to mean "real board, no jobs" versus a mis-detected token. Workday board_token is "<tenant>.wd<N>/<site>" (e.g. "workday.wd5/Workday"); its response states capped:true if your limit/offset hit Workday's own pagination limits (limit<=20, offset<=10000). Workable is currently blocked by Cloudflare from this platform's edge and will throw a loud error naming the 429, not an empty result. Dover is NOT supported: its public board is a Cloudflare-Turnstile-gated SPA with no keyless jobs endpoint.

Input parameters:

- `ats` (string, required): Which ATS to query.
- `board_token` (string, required): The board identifier: Greenhouse/Lever/Ashby/SmartRecruiters/Teamtailor/Personio/Breezy/Pinpoint company slug or subdomain label; Recruitee/BambooHR subdomain label; Jobvite slug (path segment after…
- `filters` (object): Optional post-fetch filters and Workday pagination controls.

### `ats_company_jobs` (~90 tokens)

Detect a company's public ATS board from its domain, then fetch its postings in one call — ats_detect + ats_jobs combined. Returns the same {found:false, reason:"no_ats_detected"} shape as ats_detect when no board can be found.

Input parameters:

- `domain` (string, required): Company domain, e.g. "airbnb.com".
- `filters` (object): Same optional filters as ats_jobs.

### `ats_new_postings` (~156 tokens)

Diff a board's current postings against the last time this tool was called for the same ats+board_token (snapshot kept in KV, dated). The FIRST call for a board has no prior snapshot, so it returns every current job as new (snapshot_bootstrap:true) rather than a misleading empty diff. Pass "since" (ISO date) to also require posted_at >= since where the ATS reports a date.

Input parameters:

- `ats` (string, required): Which ATS the board is on.
- `board_token` (string, required): Same board_token shape as ats_jobs.
- `since` (string): Optional ISO-8601 date/time; only postings with posted_at on or after this (where the ATS reports a date) count as new.

## Common questions

### What is the Ats Boards MCP server?

Ats Boards is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/ats-boards. ATS Boards MCP, public job-board postings across eight applicant-tracking systems (keyless). This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-ats-boards).

### Is the Ats Boards MCP server safe to use?

Ats Boards scores 82 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Ats Boards MCP server expose?

Ats Boards exposes 4 tools: ats_detect, ats_jobs, ats_company_jobs, ats_new_postings. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 867 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Ats Boards MCP server still maintained?

Ats Boards is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the Ats Boards MCP server under?

Ats Boards declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Ats Boards MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on Ats Boards, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
