Last updated

Add Jobby.dev to Continue — the open-source IDE coding assistant — via its MCP integration in config.yaml.

1. Mint a token

At /account/api-tokens, with the scopes Continue's assistant should have.

2. Open Continue config

Continue's config lives at ~/.continue/config.yaml (the JSON-form config.json is also supported but YAML is preferred in current versions).

3. Add the MCP server

mcpServers:
  - name: jobbydev
    command: npx
    args:
      - "-y"
      - "@jobbydev/mcp"
    env:
      JOBBYDEV_API_TOKEN: jbb_...

If mcpServers already exists, append the entry to the list.

4. Reload Continue

Reload from the command palette: Continue: Reload Window. Tools appear in the chat panel's tools list.

5. Test

In the chat panel: "Use jobbydev_live_now to show me currently-live job fair events."

HTTP transport

Continue supports HTTP MCP transport via the url field instead of command:

mcpServers:
  - name: jobbydev
    url: https://jobby.dev/api/mcp
    headers:
      Authorization: Bearer jbb_...
