Part of the Freshcontext MCP server. Enforce policies on this tool with Intercept, the open-source MCP proxy.
AI agents call search_jobs to retrieve information from Freshcontext without modifying any data. This is common in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows where the agent needs context before taking action. Because read operations don't change state, they are generally safe to allow without restrictions -- but you may still want rate limits to control API costs.
Even though search_jobs only reads data, uncontrolled read access can leak sensitive information or rack up API costs. An agent caught in a retry loop could make thousands of calls per minute. A rate limit gives you a safety net without blocking legitimate use.
Read-only tools are safe to allow by default. No rate limit needed unless you want to control costs.

Search for real-time job listings with freshness badges on every result — so you never apply to a role that closed months ago. Sources: Remotive + RemoteOK + The Muse + HN 'Who is Hiring'. Supports location filtering, remote-only mode, keyword spotting (e.g. FIFO), and max age filtering. Returns timestamped freshcontext sorted freshest first.. It is categorised as a Read tool in the Freshcontext MCP Server, which means it retrieves data without modifying state.
Add a rule in your Intercept YAML policy under the tools section for search_jobs. You can allow, deny, rate-limit, or validate arguments. Then run Intercept as a proxy in front of the Freshcontext MCP server.
search_jobs is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the search_jobs rule in your Intercept policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the Intercept policy for search_jobs. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
search_jobs is provided by the Freshcontext MCP server (freshcontext-mcp). Intercept sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
Open source. One binary. Zero dependencies.
