Worth a look

None of the five warning signs in these definitions.

A program checks the server once a day: initialize and tools/list, no model. Tokens are the definitions' length at about four characters a token. The grade averages six checks of every tool's name, description, schema and annotations; it says how well the tools are described, not whether they work.

    Search live museum, gallery and curatorial job listings, gathered daily from institutions' own career pages. Returns up to 20 roles, newest first, each with its curatorsearch.com page.

  • get_job

    One listing in full: description, stated salary, deadline, and the institution's original posting URL. Takes the slug from a curatorsearch.com/opportunities/<slug> URL.

  • institution_jobs

    Every role one museum or gallery currently has open on the board, by institution name.

  • salary_transparency

    How many live museum and curatorial postings state a salary, and the median advertised figure among those that do -- the CuratorSearch Curatorial Pay Archive headline number, computed live.

How to connect

Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jobs": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://curatorsearch.com/mcp"
    }
  }

Each line is something a program found when it went looking: the registry entry, the server's own answer, a spec that parses. A missing line means we did not find it, not that it does not exist.
