Product How it works
From one question to real listings.
Kanukko is an MCP connector: a small server your assistant is allowed to call. Here is exactly what happens when you ask ChatGPT or Claude for a job, and what we keep afterwards.
What happens when you ask
Take "Find me remote data analyst jobs open to people in India".
Your assistant decides to use Kanukko
Once you've added the connector, your assistant sees Kanukko's tools next to its own. For a job question it calls
search_jobswith your words, plus a location and job type if you gave them.Kanukko asks every connected board at once
The server looks up the job boards in its registry and calls each board's own public API in parallel, within that board's rate limit. Answers are cached briefly so the same question doesn't hit a board twice.
Results are merged and ranked
Listings are matched against your words, location and job type and duplicates across boards are removed. Each listing keeps the name of the board it came from.
Your assistant shows them, with credit
Your assistant gets the list and shows it to you. Every listing links to the original page on the board, and you apply there. Kanukko never sits between you and the employer.
The tools your assistant gets
These are the four tools the connector exposes today. Searching is read-only.
| search_jobs | Search every connected job board at once. Takes a query, an optional location, job type and result limit. Returns one merged list, each item with title, company, location, link and source board. |
|---|---|
| search_products | Find a product by what it does. For questions that aren't a plain job search, such as "which boards list internships". |
| get_product | See what one product can do. Lists its actions and which of them would send personal details. |
| run_action | Run one of those actions. If an action would send your name, email, phone or resume, your assistant has to tell you which product and which fields, and get your yes first. |
What your assistant receives
The shape of a search_jobs answer. The fields are real; the values here are placeholders.
Results from boards are treated as untrusted text: the server strips markup and tells the assistant never to follow instructions inside a listing.

}What we keep, and what we don't
Counts and search words
For each tool call: the tool, which assistant made it, how long it took, how many results, and the search words with filler removed. Deleted after 365 days.
Which board was shown or clicked
So each board can see how often it was shown and opened. Totals per board and day, nothing per person.
Your chats
Kanukko only sees what your assistant sends to a tool, never the conversation around it.
Who you are
You don't need an account to search. A caller is identified only by a one-way hash of the network address, for rate limits and counts.
