## README

# Jobbank Search Skill

Search live Danish job listings from [Akademikernes Jobbank](https://jobbank.dk) — Denmark's primary job portal for highly educated candidates. Uses the RSS feed for search (up to 100 results) and JSON-LD parsing for detailed job information. Jobbank may block automated requests with Cloudflare bot protection; if that happens, report the portal as unavailable and use WebSearch fallback instead of retrying.

## When to use this skill

Invoke this skill when the user wants to:

- Search for jobs, positions, or career opportunities in Denmark
- Find academic, graduate, trainee, Ph.d., or postdoc positions
- Look for jobs by keyword, industry, location, education background, or work function
- Find remote or hybrid positions in Denmark
- Get full details for a specific job posting on jobbank.dk
- Check what positions are available at a specific company on jobbank.dk
- Browse jobs suitable for new graduates or people with international backgrounds

## Commands

### Search jobs

```bash
bun run .agents/skills/jobbank-search/cli/src/cli.ts search [flags]
```

Key flags:
- `--key <text>` — keyword search (title, company, keyword)
- `--exclude <text>` — exclude keywords from results
- `--type <code>` — job type: `3`=Fuldtidsjob, `6`=Graduate/trainee, `13`=Deltidsjob, `8`=Vikariat, `12`=Ph.d. & Postdoc, `11`=Freelance, `9`=Praktikplads, `4`=Studiejob (repeatable)
- `--location <code>` — region: `2`=Storkøbenhavn, `8`=Østjylland (Aarhus), `7`=Midtjylland, `6`=Nordjylland, `13`=Fyn (repeatable)
- `--work-area <code>` — function: `31`=IT-Software, `43`=Data & Analyse, `26`=Ledelse, `29`=Marketing (repeatable)
- `--industry <code>` — sector: `10331`=IT & Tele, `10442`=Forskning & Uddannelse, `10358`=Finans (repeatable)
- `--education <code>` — education field: `24`=IT, `21`=Økonomi & Revision, `34`=Samfundsvidenskab (repeatable)
- `--remote <value>` — `helt` (fully remote) or `delvist` (partially remote)
- `--suitable-for <code>` — `2`=Nyuddannede, `4`=International baggrund, `5`=Erfarne
- `--company <id>` — filter by company ID
- `--since <YYYY-MM-DD>` — jobs posted on or after this date
- `--limit <n>` — cap results returned by CLI
- `--format json|table|plain`

> **RSS limitation:** The RSS feed returns max 100 items per request. No pagination is available via RSS. `meta.total` shows the true count; `results` is capped at 100.

### Full job detail

```bash
bun run .agents/skills/jobbank-search/cli/src/cli.ts detail <id> [--format json|plain]
```

`id` is the numeric job ID from `search` results. Fetches the job page and parses the embedded Schema.org `JobPosting` JSON-LD for structured data.

---

## How to use effectively

**Start with `search`, then use `detail` for full description.**

1. Use `search` with `--key` and/or filters to find matching jobs with IDs
2. Call `detail <id>` to get the full HTML job description, exact deadline, and company details

**Use repeatable flags for multi-value filters.** Most filter flags can be repeated to match any of the values:

```bash
# IT or Finance industry, Copenhagen or Aarhus
bun run .agents/skills/jobbank-search/cli/src/cli.ts search \
  --industry 10331 --industry 10358 \
  --location 2 --location 8
```

**Filter codes are documented in the README** at `skills/jobbank-search/cli/README.md`.

## Usage examples

### Find data scientist jobs in Copenhagen

```bash
bun run .agents/skills/jobbank-search/cli/src/cli.ts search \
  --key "data scientist" \
  --location 2 \
  --format table
```

### Graduate trainee positions for new graduates

```bash
bun run .agents/skills/jobbank-search/cli/src/cli.ts search \
  --type 6 \
  --suitable-for 2 \
  --format table
```

### Remote IT software jobs

```bash
bun run .agents/skills/jobbank-search/cli/src/cli.ts search \
  --work-area 31 \
  --remote helt \
  --format table
```

### Ph.d. and postdoc positions in research

```bash
bun run .agents/skills/jobbank-search/cli/src/cli.ts search \
  --type 12 \
  --industry 10442 \
  --format table
```

### Recent full-time jobs posted since March 1

```bash
bun run .agents/skills/jobbank-search/cli/src/cli.ts search \
  --type 3 \
  --since 2026-03-01 \
  --format table
```

### Full details for a specific job

```bash
bun run .agents/skills/jobbank-search/cli/src/cli.ts detail 1234567 --format plain
```

### IT jobs in Aarhus or Copenhagen

```bash
bun run .agents/skills/jobbank-search/cli/src/cli.ts search \
  --key developer \
  --location 2 --location 8 \
  --work-area 31 \
  --format table
```

---

## Output formats

| Format | Best for |
|--------|----------|
| `json` | Default — programmatic use, passing IDs to `detail` |
| `table` | Quick human-readable list of results |
| `plain` | Single-job detail views (`detail` command) |

All errors are written to **stderr** as `{ "error": "...", "code": "..." }` and the process exits with code `1`.

---

## Notes

- Data is from the public jobbank.dk RSS feed and HTML pages. Jobbank may still block automated CLI requests with Cloudflare bot protection; treat that as a portal availability failure and fall back to WebSearch.
- RSS feed returns max 100 results per query. For higher counts, `meta.total` shows the true total.
- The `detail` command fetches a full job page and extracts the JSON-LD structured data block.
- `location` values are region codes (e.g. `2` = Storkøbenhavn), not city names.
- All filter codes are documented in `skills/jobbank-search/cli/README.md`.
