Reqbeat Hiring Signals Skill Pack for Claude

Six Claude skills that turn live hiring signals into pipeline: who started hiring this morning, who cannot fill a role, and the moment a target account opens a req.

Built on the Reqbeat hiring-signals API: company career pages and job boards across hundreds of sources, deduplicated, rebuilt every 3 hours. Every fact is detected at source and dated. Nothing is inferred.

Community pack, built on the public Reqbeat API. Not an official Reqbeat product and carries no support commitment; issues and PRs welcome.

Try the data, no key needed

The endpoint speaks MCP over streamable HTTP, so a call takes a session: open one, finish the handshake, then ask.

# 1. open a session, capture the id from the response header
SID=$(curl -sD - -o /dev/null -X POST https://mcp.reqbeat.com/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2024-11-05","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"curl","version":"1"}}}' \
  | tr -d '\r' | awk '/^[Mm]cp-[Ss]ession-[Ii]d:/{print $2}')

# 2. complete the handshake
curl -s -o /dev/null -X POST https://mcp.reqbeat.com/mcp \
  -H "mcp-session-id: $SID" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"notifications/initialized"}'

# 3. call the tool
curl -s -X POST https://mcp.reqbeat.com/mcp \
  -H "mcp-session-id: $SID" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":2,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"who_is_hiring_for","arguments":{"role":"sales","geo":"United Kingdom","limit":5}}}'

Live companies, roles and first-seen dates, straight from the corpus. That is the data; the skills below put it to work.

Pointing an MCP client at https://mcp.reqbeat.com/mcp handles all three steps for you.

Pick your job

Find who to call

I want to...	Skill	Ask Claude
A call list of companies that just started hiring	morning-lead-list	"Who started hiring sales in the UK this week?"
Companies that cannot fill a role, with proof	repost-pain-prospector	"Which companies in my patch cannot fill an engineering role?"

Know before you write

I want to...	Skill	Ask Claude
A one-call dossier before a call or email	pre-call-brief	"Brief me on Anaplan before my 3pm"
To qualify a list I already own	list-coverage-audit	"Which companies in accounts.csv are hiring right now?"

Reach out and stay on it

I want to...	Skill	Ask Claude
First-touch copy where the signal is the message	signal-first-outreach	"Write a first email from these three signals"
A push the moment a target account starts hiring	account-watchlist	"Tell me when Monzo starts hiring engineers"

How they chain

list-coverage-audit ──► morning-lead-list ──► pre-call-brief ──► signal-first-outreach
        (qualify)            (find)               (know)              (write)
                                ▲                                        │
                        account-watchlist ◄──────────── write_outcome ───┘
                        (push, not poll)                (close the loop)

A prompt gives a one-time answer. A skill encodes the method: the same list discipline, the same dated-facts rule, every morning.

Real prompts that work

• "Who started hiring backend engineers in Germany this week? Table, surge first."
• "Build a rescue list: UK companies with sales roles stuck for 4+ weeks."
• "Brief me on company 1950, then draft the first email from its freshest signal."
• "Run accounts.csv through a coverage audit and tell me what I save on enrichment."
• "Watch these 12 accounts for revenue roles and give me a Monday diff."
• "Yesterday's list is below. What is new this morning?"

Data, honestly

• Sources: company ATS boards and job boards, deduplicated, rebuilt every 3 hours.
• Every row carries first_seen; claims in your outreach inherit that date.
• geo takes country names (United Kingdom); UK and GB resolve; cities do not.
• Rate limits answer with a clean 429 and Retry-After. Limits are per-minute and per-day, they clear themselves, and nobody gets banned for trying.
• Full endpoint list and field dictionary: docs.reqbeat.com/docs.

FAQ

Do I need a key to try it? No. The demo above is keyless. Skills that write watches or audits need a free key.

Will the free tier hold my daily list? A morning list is 1-2 calls. The 100/24h allowance covers a daily habit with room to explore; a nightly batch across hundreds of companies needs a paid rung.

Where do bugs go? Issues on this repo. It is a community pack: no SLA, honest triage.
