Shortlist MCP Server
Apply to hundreds of jobs from Claude in minutes.
Shortlist connects to Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or Cursor and lets you search for jobs, fill out applications with AI, and submit them automatically — without leaving your terminal.
How it works
1. Connect
Add the MCP server and log in — takes 30 seconds.
claude mcp add shortlist --transport http https://shortlist.jobs/mcp
Restart Claude Code, then type /mcp and select shortlist. A browser window opens — sign in with your Shortlist account and you're connected.
Claude Desktop setup (macOS)
Add this to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"shortlist": {
"transport": "http",
"url": "https://shortlist.jobs/mcp"
}
}
}
Restart Claude Desktop. You'll be prompted to authenticate on first use.
Claude Desktop setup (Windows)
Add this to %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"shortlist": {
"transport": "http",
"url": "https://shortlist.jobs/mcp"
}
}
}
Restart Claude Desktop. You'll be prompted to authenticate on first use.
2. Search and queue jobs
Find jobs by role, location, or company. Or paste URLs directly from any supported job board.
You: Find me remote senior frontend engineer jobs
You: Add these to my queue:
https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/stripe/senior-frontend
https://jobs.lever.co/figma/senior-fe-engineer
https://boards.greenhouse.io/vercel/jobs/frontend-eng
3. Apply
Shortlist scrapes each application form, fills in answers from your profile, and submits. You review before anything goes out.
You: Prefill and approve all jobs, then start applying
The bot handles the rest — form fields, dropdowns, file uploads, the works. All AI-generated text is humanized and reads identical to human writing — no "passionate team player" filler that gets your application filtered out.

I'd like to work on the other side of it."
