About jobd
jobd is an MCP server published by the GitHub account musharna. Self-hostable GPU-aware job broker: submit, route by VRAM, babysit jobs across machines via MCP.
It runs on your own machine: your AI client starts it from the PyPI package jobd at version 0.5.52.
It asks for one secret: JOBD_API_TOKEN. Give it a key with the least access that still works.
Version 0.5.52 was published on 20 October 2026, and the source code is public, so you can read it before installing.
Written from the registry entry. 9 automated checks on the registry entry and the package code: 7 pass, 0 warn, 0 fail, 2 info. How we check.
