AI Job Search vs Himalayas Remote Jobs MCP

AI Job Search 50

Read on the local-framework lines. Clone setup with runtimes stated in SETUP.md (Python 3.10 or later, Bun for the portal tools, a LaTeX toolchain), and no official package (10 of 20, a partial carried from 19 October). The public CI workflow runs the Python test suite with unittest on Python 3.10 to 3.14 and on Windows with Python 3.14, plus a security guard and skill lint, on pushes and pull requests. The run results weren't readable (GitHub's pages answer 403 here), so 15 of 25, as this checklist reads unread CI runs on other listings (15). Crash and regression issues weren't read (0). The changelog follows Keep a Changelog and declares Semantic Versioning, and releases are now tagged weekly with versions bumped from commit types (10 of 15, carried). Version 1.7.4 (15).
