Indeed Salary

indeed-salary

Focused salary skill. Use only when the user explicitly asks what a job posting pays.

When to use this skill

DO use when the user asks:

• "What does this job pay?" (with an Indeed link)
• "Look up the salary for job key a1b2c3d4e5f60718"
• "Is that nurse posting's salary from the employer or an estimate?"
• "Compare pay on these three postings"

Do NOT use when:

• The user asks about market-wide or average salaries rather than a specific posting
• A posting appears incidentally in context
• You also need the description, company, or benefits. Use indeed-full instead, it bundles everything in one install.

Setup

export ROLESAPI_KEY="rk_live_..."

python3 scripts/get_salary.py 7dcf172c8d7fc756
python3 scripts/get_salary.py "https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=7dcf172c8d7fc756"
python3 scripts/get_salary.py 7dcf172c8d7fc756 --country gb

Real output (job key path):

{
  "data": {
    "title": "Nursing",
    "company": {
      "name": "Golden Healthcare Services Inc"
    },
    "location": "Olympia Fields, IL 60461",
    "salary": {
      "min": 30,
      "max": 45,
      "period": "hour",
      "source": "employer",
      "currency": "USD"
    }
  },
  "request_id": "a18e4fa32b51ce3e"
}

source is employer when the figure comes from the posting itself and estimated when it is an Indeed estimate. Postings with no salary information omit the salary key.
