## What it does

Paste a recruiter's message, a company name, a link or an email address into your AI chat. The server pulls out emails, domains, phone numbers, wallet addresses and profile URLs, then runs each one past public business registries, scam blocklists and website history from the Internet Archive. You get a short verdict: which signals are reassuring, which are red flags, what to do next.

Setup is one terminal line. The server runs from GitHub through `uvx`, so there is no repo to clone and no virtualenv to create. You do need `uv` installed first — without it `uvx jobverify-mcp` will not run. The initial start takes a few seconds while the tool downloads; after that it launches right away.

No API keys, no sign-up, and nothing you paste gets stored or sold. It does not log into or scrape LinkedIn, only reads what is already public. Treat the result as guidance about a message, not a final judgement about a person.

## Requirements
- Needs: Python and uv (commands run via uvx)

## When to use it
- check whether the company behind an offer actually exists
- spot the classic upfront-equipment-fee scam script
- find out how old the domain in the message really is
- trace a recruiter photo or username across other profiles
- decide whether a suspicious message deserves a reply

## Example prompts
- Analyze this job offer email and tell me if it looks like a scam
- Run the `analyze` prompt on this message from a recruiter
