## Trust breakdown

How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. Scores are 0–100 per category. Scoring method: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring (what has changed: https://verifymcp.io/docs/scoring/changelog)

  - AI-judged instruction clarity (good).
  - Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 1109 tokens (~221/item across 5 items; 5 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params.
  - Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples.
- **Stability & Change Management**: 0/100
  - Stability not yet verified: not enough scan history yet (needs a 30-day window).

  - Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.

**Unverified: 1 category.** A category scored 0 because we could not verify it: a data source with nothing on this package, evidence we could not reach, or a check we could not run. We only credit what we can confirm.

### 2026-08-14 (score 66)

First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (5)

### `resolve_board` (~78 tokens)

Resolve company names to Ashby boards

Turn a company name into the token that addresses its Ashby job board, and report every form that answered. search_jobs does this on its own, so call this when a name returns nothing and you want to see the spellings that were tried.

Input parameters:

- `name` (string, required): A company name, or an Ashby board token you already know.

Output parameters:

- `found` (array)
- `input` (string)
- `notes` (array)
- `tried` (array): The forms actually sent, in order.

### `search_jobs` (~339 tokens)

Search postings at named companies

Search the open postings of named companies on Ashby. Ashby publishes no index across its customers, so companies are required. Every filter runs here rather than at the source, and the answer reports how many postings declared nothing about a field it filtered on. Rows carry no description: read one posting with get_job.

Input parameters:

- `companies` (array, required): Company names or board tokens, one to 10. Each costs a request and a whole board, which is why 5 at a time is the comfortable number.
- `country`
- `currency` (string): A three-letter currency code, as in EUR or USD.
- `department`
- `employment_type`
- `has_compensation` (boolean): Keeps only postings whose company publishes a pay range.
- `is_remote` (boolean): Keeps only postings that declare it. Postings recording nothing are counted in undeclared rather than treated as on site.
- `limit` (integer): How many postings to return.
- `location_contains` (string): Part of a location line.
- `offset` (integer): How many postings to skip.
- `published_after` (string): An ISO 8601 date.
- `query` (string): Words to look for.
- `salary_interval` (string): The period salary_min belongs to, 1 YEAR unless named. An hourly amount is never weighed against a yearly floor.
- `salary_min` (number): A floor for the salary component.
- `search_in` (string): Where query is looked for. Descriptions run to thousands of characters each.
- `sort` (string)
- `team`
- `workplace_type`

Output parameters:

- `filters_applied` (object)
- `jobs` (array): No descriptions, at any limit.
- `notes` (array)
- `per_company` (array)
- `returned` (integer): Postings in this answer, after limit and offset.
- `total_matched` (integer): Postings the criteria kept.
- `total_on_board` (integer): Postings the boards read hold, all of them.
- `undeclared` (object): Postings a criterion could say nothing about, counted per field. A posting that records no workplace is not a posting on site.

### `get_job` (~113 tokens)

Read one posting

Read one Ashby posting in full: its locations, its description and the pay ranges its company published. Ashby addresses a posting by board and identifier, both of which search_jobs returns.

Input parameters:

- `board` (string, required): A company name, or an Ashby board token.
- `description` (string): The description runs to thousands of characters. html is the company's own markup, unrewritten.
- `include_compensation` (boolean)
- `job_id` (string, required): The identifier search_jobs returned for this posting.

Output parameters:

- `apply_url` (string)
- `board` (string)
- `compensation`: Null when the caller asked for no compensation, which states nothing about the company.
- `compensation_summary`: Null when the company withholds its pay ranges, which is never zero.
- `department` (string)
- `description`: Null when the caller asked for no description.
- `employment_type` (string)
- `id` (string)
- `is_listed` (boolean): False marks a posting Ashby serves by direct link alone rather than on the board.
- `is_remote`
- `job_url` (string)
- `location` (object)
- `notes` (array)
- `published_at` (string): ISO 8601 with the offset Ashby publishes.
- `secondary_locations` (array)
- `source` (object)
- `team` (string)
- `title` (string)
- `workplace_type`: Null when the company records none, which is never the same as on site.

### `list_filter_values` (~79 tokens)

List a board's filter wordings

List the words one Ashby board actually uses, with how many postings carry each, and how many declare nothing. Every board keeps its own departments and teams, so a filter written from another board's vocabulary narrows to nothing.

Input parameters:

- `board` (string, required): A company name, or an Ashby board token.
- `facet` (string)

Output parameters:

- `board` (string)
- `facets` (object)
- `notes` (array)
- `sibling_spellings` (array): Spellings on this board that name what looks like one place, so a caller asks for both rather than picking one.
- `total_jobs` (integer)
- `undeclared` (object): Postings a criterion could say nothing about, counted per field. A posting that records no workplace is not a posting on site.

### `compare_compensation` (~193 tokens)

Compare published pay on one board

Put the pay ranges of one Ashby board side by side, one component at a time and one period at a time. Nothing is converted between currencies, summed across components or averaged: a third of the postings publish no range at all, and they are named rather than dropped.

Input parameters:

- `board` (string, required): A company name, or an Ashby board token.
- `component` (string): One component at a time: a share of capital and a salary do not add up.
- `department`
- `interval` (string): The period compared, 1 YEAR unless named. Postings on another period are listed apart, unconverted.
- `job_ids` (array): A list of posting identifiers search_jobs returned, one to 50 of them.
- `limit` (integer): How many postings to compare.
- `query` (string): Words to look for in the titles.
- `team`

Output parameters:

- `board` (string)
- `component` (string)
- `currencies_present` (array): Named, because rows in different currencies do not rank against each other.
- `interval` (string)
- `not_published` (array): Postings whose company publishes no range, named rather than dropped.
- `notes` (array)
- `other_intervals` (array): Postings on another period, left unconverted.
- `rows` (array)
