Crosswalk
An AI-native career copilot that lives inside your AI, not on a website.Local-first. Zero API keys. Bring your own model.
Crosswalk is an MCP server. Install it once into Claude Desktop (or any MCP host that supports sampling). Your AI gains 6 tools to find roles, score fit, and tailor applications — using the model you already pay for.
Quick start
npx crosswalk-mcp install
Restart Claude Desktop. Then say:
"Set up my profile: I'm a PM with 2 years at Acme, want NYC or remote, looking at AI infra.""Add my resume from ~/Documents/resume.pdf, label it 'Generic PM'.""Find PM roles at H-1B sponsors with 0.8+ confidence.""Why am I a fit for the Stripe Payments PM role?"
What it does (M1)
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
setup_profile |
Store a structured profile from a free-form description. |
add_resume |
Parse and store a labeled resume version (DOCX/PDF/text). |
list_resumes |
List stored resumes. |
fetch_jobs |
Pull live roles from Greenhouse, Lever, and Ashby. |
score_fit |
Numeric fit score + structured strengths/gaps. |
explain_fit |
Markdown narrative — why fit, gap, positioning. |
Why it's different
- Zero API keys. All AI work runs through MCP sampling — calling back into your AI client's model. No keys in this repo, no AI bill on us, no rate limits beyond yours.
- Local-first. Profile, resumes, and job cache live in
~/.crosswalk/state.db. Your data never leaves your machine. - Open Job Graph. The company → ATS registry is a checked-in, MIT-licensed JSON dataset. Add your favorite companies via PR.
