Will my client connect?
Decided from what the probe found at the endpoint, and from what each client's own documentation says it can complete. Every row carries the day that documentation was read.
✕Claude CodeNot supported
The authorization server advertises no S256 challenge method, which MCP's authorization spec requires — no compliant client has a method in common with it.

How to authenticate
Checked against the endpoint by our probe on 28 Oct 2026. These are the capabilities the server advertises, not a prediction about any particular client.
| Scheme | OAuth |
|---|---|
| Issuer | https://jobherder.com |
| Dynamic client registration | ✓Advertised (RFC 7591) |
| Client ID Metadata Document | ✕Not advertised |
| PKCE | ✕None advertised MCP requires S256; a client that implements only that has no method in common with this server. |
| Grant types | urn:jobherder:agent-auth:grant-type:api-key |
| Scopes | searches:read, searches:write, checkout |
| Protected-resource metadata | ✓Published (RFC 9728) |
| Anonymous access | Handshake succeeds; 5 tools listable |
| Credentials demanded in prose | ✕start_job_search These tools are listed anonymously and their own descriptions ask for an account or key, but no challenge is issued — so a client has nothing to act on and the refusal arrives as a tool error. |
| Documentation | https://jobherder.com/auth.md |
What the probe found
1 of the 5 tools listed anonymously say in their own descriptions that they need an account or a key (start_job_search), but the endpoint issued no WWW-Authenticate challenge. The requirement is stated only in prose, so a call reaches the tool and comes back as a tool error instead of an authorization step.
https://jobherder.com/mcp/server-card: the card says version 1.0.0, the server says 1.1.0. Clients that configure themselves from the card are told something the live server does not do.
A cross-origin preflight came back without Access-Control-Allow-Origin, so the endpoint is reachable from native clients only — code running in a web page is stopped by the browser before a request is ever sent.
The server exposes a public surface before authorization: get_pricing, register_agent, start_job_search, quick_job_search, get_search_status.
