Tool inventory
Tools (4)
🟢search_jobs(category, state, employment_type, q, updated_since, ...)
Search live veterinary job listings on VetJobs.au, Australia's dedicated veterinary job board: veterinarian, veterinary nurse, locum, practice manager, reception and animal care roles posted by clinics, hospitals and practices across Australia (plus some New Zealand roles), with no recruiter middlemen. Expired listings are never returned; a listing that is gone from the source disappears from results. Each listing reports provenance: source, is_imported, first_party and source_url. Pass first_party=true to restrict results to listings the employer posted directly — the most current inventory, and the subset safest to cite.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"category": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Occupation slug. Call list_categories first for the vocabulary and live counts, e.g. veterinary-nurse, veterinarian-small-animal."

"type": "string",
"description": "Australian state/territory code, e.g. QLD, NSW, VIC."

},
"updated_since": {
"type": "string",
"description": "ISO 8601 date or datetime. Returns only listings changed since then — use this for incremental sync instead of re-fetching everything."
},
"first_party": {
"type": "boolean",
"description": "true = only listings posted directly by the employer (excludes scraped imports); false = only imports. Omit for both."

}
},
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢get_job(id)
Fetch a single live listing by its numeric id, in the same shape search_jobs returns, including embedded schema.org JobPosting structured data. Returns an error if the listing is unknown, unpublished or expired — treat that as 'no longer available' rather than retrying.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"id": {
"type": "integer",
"description": "Numeric listing id from search_jobs."
}
},
"required": [
"id"
],
"additionalProperties": false
}🟢list_categories
The board's vocabulary and volume: every occupation category with its live count, the states that currently have listings, the total active count and the first-party vs imported split. Call this first to learn valid filter values and how much inventory exists before searching.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {},
"additionalProperties": false
}⚪recent_changes(updated_since, first_party, page, per_page)
Incremental sync: every listing created or updated since the given ISO 8601 timestamp, newest first. Poll this instead of re-fetching the whole board — combine with the returned ids to keep a local copy current. Expired listings are never returned.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"updated_since": {
"type": "string",
"description": "ISO 8601 date or datetime to sync from."
