Call this server's tools from your browser. Nothing to install.
Requests go through mcptry because browsers can't call most MCP servers directly. Header values are sent to the server for that request only and are never stored or logged.
Tool list from our last check. Connect live to refresh it.
Mark changes up to a cursor as processed. Use with get_changes(peek=true) for at-least-once delivery: peek, act on the changes, then ack the cursor get_changes returned. Not needed if you call get_changes without peek (that acknowledges automatically).
The cursor value returned by get_changes.
Limit the acknowledgement to one watch. Omit for all your watches.
Only if this conversation already uses a Watchtower token (wt_...) from before the app was connected. Otherwise leave it out; never ask the user for one.

}Return job changes detected since your last get_changes call, across all your watches or one watch. This is the cheap replacement for re-browsing careers pages: if it returns an empty list, nothing you care about has changed. By default the cursor advances so each change is delivered once; pass peek=true to look without advancing, or since=<cursor> to replay.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| peek | boolean | If true, do not mark returned changes as delivered. |
| limit | integer | Max changes to return (default 50). If has_more is true, call again. |
| since | integer | Replay changes after this cursor instead of your stored position. |
| watch_id | string | Limit to one watch. Omit for all your watches. |
| client_token | string | Only if this conversation already uses a Watchtower token (wt_...) from before the app was connected. Otherwise leave it out; never ask the user for one. |

}Get a watch with its status and the jobs currently open that match its filters: on its board, or across every monitored board for a watch created without a url. Use this to answer "what is open right now" without searching or fetching careers pages yourself.
| Argument | Type | Description |

| watch_id* | string | |
| client_token | string | Only if this conversation already uses a Watchtower token (wt_...) from before the app was connected. Otherwise leave it out; never ask the user for one. |

}List the companies whose job boards Watchtower monitors, i.e. what search_jobs and watch_jobs without a url cover. Pass query to check whether a company is covered ("stripe"). Each entry has name, board_url (pass it to watch_jobs as url to follow only that company), platform and open_jobs. Read-only, no token needed. If a company is missing, watch its board URL or careers page to add it.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | Companies per page (default 100, max 1000). |
| query | string | Part of a company name or board URL, case-insensitive, e.g. "stripe". Omit to list all. |
| offset | integer | Skip this many; pass next_offset from the previous page. |
| client_token | string | Only if this conversation already uses a Watchtower token (wt_...) from before the app was connected. Otherwise leave it out; never ask the user for one. |

}Find the tech jobs open right now that match a request, across every job board Watchtower monitors (tech companies and startups). Describe what you want in query ("iOS jobs in Austin with a maximum of 6 years of experience"). Read-only: nothing is saved and no watch is created, and no token is needed. The response shows how the query was read (interpreted), the matching jobs newest first, the total, and next_offset for the next page. Use this for "what is open right now"; to be told about new postings later, use watch_jobs instead. Jobs carry title, location, other_locations, department, company, url, posted_at, remote, seniority, and salary / experience_years when the posting states them. Explicit filters override what the query says.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| limit | integer | Jobs per page (default 25, max 100). |
| query | string | What to look for, in plain language: role, place, pay, experience, level, remote. E.g. "iOS jobs in Austin with a maximum of 6 years of experience", "senior backend roles in New York or remote paying $180k+". Check interpreted in the response. |
| offset | integer | Skip this many matches; pass next_offset from the previous page. |
| keywords | array | Only report jobs whose title/location/department/company contains one of these as a whole word, e.g. ["iOS", "Swift"]. |
| locations | array | Only report jobs with one of these in their location, e.g. ["Austin"], ["Berlin", "Remote"]. |
Create a persistent watch for tech jobs. Describe what you want in query ("iOS jobs in Austin making at least 150k a year with a maximum of 6 years of experience") and leave url out: the watch then covers every job board Watchtower monitors (tech companies and startups, whatever platform they use) and reports each new matching posting (JOB_ADDED). The response shows how the query was read (interpreted), the jobs open right now that match (current_jobs) and how many boards are covered (coverage); later call get_changes for new ones. Use this INSTEAD OF re-running job searches or re-checking careers pages yourself. To follow one company, or to cover a company the directory is missing, pass url (or urls for several): Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workable, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee, Workday, iCIMS, Oracle Recruiting, Eightfold and SuccessFactors boards, and the Apple, Google, Amazon and Microsoft careers sites, are read through their own endpoints; other careers pages are parsed via schema.org JobPosting JSON-LD. A careers page that only links to a supported board is watched through that board (resolved_from says so); a page with neither is rejected with NO_JOB_DATA. A board you watch stays covered for every search watch. A board watch emits JOB_ADDED / JOB_REMOVED / JOB_UPDATED. Jobs carry title, location, other_locations, department, company, url, posted_at, remote, seniority, and salary / experience_years when the posting states them. Explicit filters override what the query says.
| Argument | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| url | string | Optional. Limit the watch to one job board or careers page, e.g. https://boards.greenhouse.io/acme, https://jobs.lever.co/acme, https://acme.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/Careers. Omit to watch every monitored board. |
| urls | array | Optional. Several boards to watch with the same filters (max 25). Returns watches and per-URL errors. |
| label | string | A short note to yourself about why you are watching this. |
| seniority | array | Only report these levels, derived from the title. "mid" means the title carries no level. |
| min_salary | number | Yearly pay the job must be able to reach, e.g. 150000. Compared with the top of the posted range (hourly and monthly pay are converted). |
| remote_only | boolean | Only report jobs whose title or location says remote (and not hybrid/on-site). |
| all_keywords | array | Only report jobs containing every one of these, e.g. ["data", "scientist"]. |
| client_token | string | Only if this conversation already uses a Watchtower token (wt_...) from before the app was connected. Otherwise leave it out; never ask the user for one. |
| include_unknown | boolean | Many postings state no pay or no years of experience. true (default) still reports them, without a salary / experience_years field; false reports only postings that state a qualifying value. |
| salary_currency | string | ISO currency of min_salary, e.g. "USD". Jobs that state pay in another currency are then left out. |
| exclude_keywords | array | Never report jobs mentioning one of these, e.g. ["manager", "clearance"]. |
| max_experience_years | number | The most years of experience a job may ask for, e.g. 6. |
