Key Implementation Details

job_search

Unified platform: remote_work_search and freelance_search and twitter_job_search are folded into job_search via platform=remoteok|weworkremotely|remotive|twitter. Use raw=true with platform=twitter to skip LLM processing.
LinkedIn: no auth, Chrome TLS fingerprint via bogdanfinn/tls-client; pagination with offset; 42 geo locations.
Google Jobs: platform=google via SearXNG.
UN sources: platform=inspira (careers.un.org) / platform=undp / platform=un (fan-out both). Not included in platform=all.

research tool

Replaces three separate tools (salary_research, company_research, person_research).
subject=salary (role required), subject=company (company required), subject=person (name required).

job_tracker

Single tool replaces job_tracker_add, job_tracker_list, job_tracker_update.
action=add (title+company required), action=list, action=update (id required).

Data Storage

Job tracker DB: $UPLOADS_ROOT/go-job/tracker/tracker.db (SQLite, table jobs). Default path: $HOME/uploads/go-job/tracker/tracker.db. Override via UPLOADS_ROOT.
User profile: $UPLOADS_ROOT/go-job/profile/profile.json. Default: $HOME/uploads/go-job/profile/profile.json.
L1 cache: in-memory (sync.Map), lost on restart.
L2 cache: Redis (optional), persistent.

Notifications

New hunt entries trigger Telegram notifications via internal/hunt/notify/telegram.go using go-kit ProductSink (own bot, rate-limited fan-out).
Requires TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN + HUNT_NOTIFY_CHAT_ID env vars.

Running

# HTTP mode (default MCP port 8891, metrics port 9891)
MCP_PORT=8891 PROM_PORT=9891 LLM_API_KEY=... ./bin/go_job

# stdio mode
./bin/go_job --stdio

Build & Deploy

make build    # → bin/go_job
make deploy   # build + copy service + restart systemd unit
make restart  # restart only

Config (env vars)

Var	Default	Description
`SEARXNG_URL`	`http://127.0.0.1:8888`	SearXNG instance
`LLM_API_KEY`	(required)	API key for the OpenAI-compatible LLM gateway
`LLM_API_BASE`	`http://127.0.0.1:8317/v1`	OpenAI-compatible LLM gateway (cliproxyapi) base URL
`LLM_MODEL`	(deploy-set)	Primary model name. Model selection is dynamic (go-engine/llm) — see `LLM_MODEL_FALLBACK`
`LLM_MODEL_FALLBACK`	(empty)	CSV cross-provider fallback chain: tries the primary, then each entry on retryable failure, health-filtered against the gateway's `/v1/models`
`MCP_PORT`	`8891`	MCP HTTP server port
`PROM_PORT`	`9891`	Prometheus metrics port
`REDIS_URL`	(optional)	Redis for L2 cache
`CACHE_TTL`	`900`	Cache TTL in seconds
`UPLOADS_ROOT`	`$HOME/uploads`	Base dir for tracker DB + user profile
`DATABASE_URL`	(optional)	Postgres for oversized payload spillover
`TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN`	(required for notifications)	Telegram bot token
`HUNT_NOTIFY_CHAT_ID`	(required for notifications)	Notification recipient chat ID

Health check

curl http://localhost:8891/health
# {"status":"ok","service":"go_job","version":"1.0.0"}

Metrics

curl http://localhost:9891/metrics

Spillover store

Large MCP responses can exceed the MCP envelope limit (~25KB). go-job spills oversized payloads to a Postgres table oversize_responses (auto-migrated on startup).

When a tool response exceeds GO_JOB_OVERSIZE_THRESHOLD_BYTES (default 24576), the client receives a small envelope with oversize_id and a sample. Use the oversize tool to retrieve the full payload.

Requires DATABASE_URL. Gracefully falls back to direct response if unset.
