O*NET Occupational Data
Pull official U.S. occupation profiles, skills, education, and wage benchmarks while scoping HR, edtech, or labor-market features in your agent.
Overview
O*NET Occupational Data is an MCP server for the Idea phase that lets your coding agent query U.S. job descriptions, skills, education requirements, and wage data through Olyport’s streamable HTTP endpoint.
What is this MCP server?
- Streamable HTTP MCP remote at mcp.olyport.com/onet/mcp (server version 1.1.0)
- Job descriptions, required skills, and education requirements per occupation
- Wage and compensation context from federal occupational statistics
- Agent-callable tools instead of manual browsing onetonline.org
- Suited to workforce analytics, recruiting assistants, and career-content products
What problem does it solve?
You need trustworthy occupational and wage facts while ideating, but switching between O*NET sites and your agent breaks flow and invites copy-paste errors.
Who is it for?
Indie builders validating workforce, education, or recruiting products who want federal occupational data inside Claude Code or Cursor during research sprints.
Skip if: Teams that need live job postings, applicant tracking, or non-U.S. labor markets only—O*NET covers standardized U.S. occupations, not your company’s open reqs.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Your agent returns structured O*NET-aligned occupation, skill, education, and wage context you can cite in PRDs, landing copy, and validation memos without leaving the session.
- Occupation summaries with skills and education requirements
- Wage context usable in validation docs and pitch copy
- Citable federal labor-market facts inside agent transcripts

Journey fit
Labor-market evidence belongs in early discovery before you commit to a hiring, training, or workforce-facing product direction. O*NET answers what roles require which skills and typical pay—inputs for competitor positioning and persona research.
How it compares
Remote MCP data integration for O*NET-style facts, not a packaged Claude skill or a job-board scraper.
