Set up your candidate profile and resume in Apply Guy or via the developer API before applying. The initial MCP tools read your saved profile; they do not upload documents or edit profiles. The API supports those additional operations.
Search costs 0.05 credit per requested block of 25 results; successful job-detail reads cost 0.01 credit. Managed applications cost 2 credits; agent mode costs 1. Preflight and status checks are free. Application credits are reserved when queued, with refunds governed by whether employer writes have begun. Retries must reuse the same idempotency key. Developer credits are separate from consumer subscriptions. The plugin cannot purchase credits or change billing.
