What it does
LAPRAS MCP Server opens lapras.com, a Japanese career platform for engineers, to an agent. Job search and detail views work without a key: the `searchJobs` and `getJobDetail` tools. The `LAPRAS_API_KEY` key is needed for profile tools. With a key the agent reads and changes work experience (`getExperiences`, `createExperience`, `updateExperience`, `deleteExperience`), tech skills (`getTechSkill`, `updateTechSkill`), the self-summary (`getJobSummary`, `updateJobSummary`) and work preferences (`getWantToDo`, `updateWantToDo`). Install through `npx`, Docker or a `.dxt` file for Claude Desktop.
Who it is for. Engineers in Japan with a LAPRAS profile who want to update their resume and search jobs through an agent.
Good fit when
- The agent finds jobs matching given skills and shows the details.
- After a project an experience entry is added to the profile.
- The self-summary is rewritten for a target role.
- The tech skill list is refreshed after learning a new stack.
Not a fit when
- There is no LAPRAS profile: profile tools do not work without a key.
- The job search is outside Japan: the service targets the Japanese market.
- Profile edits will not be trusted to an agent without review.

Environment variables
LAPRAS_API_KEYsecret- LAPRAS API key, needed for profile tools
Limitations
Profile tools change and delete your lapras.com account data, including experience entries. The README and interface are in Japanese. The key comes from the `lapras.com/config/api-key` page and lives in the `LAPRAS_API_KEY` variable of the client config. Running `npx` fails to connect in some Node.js environments, and the README then advises Docker. Under WSL environment variables are not read, so the key goes straight into the arguments. Job search needs no key but covers a single service data.
How to disable. Remove the `lapras` entry from the MCP client config or disable the `.dxt` extension. Revoke the key on the lapras.com API key page.
FAQ
Is a key needed for job search?
No. `LAPRAS_API_KEY` is only for profile tools; job search and detail views work without it.
How do I install it in Claude Desktop?
Download `lapras-mcp-server.dxt` from the releases page, drag it into the settings window and set the key if needed.
What if `npx` does not connect?
Run the server through Docker with the `laprascom/lapras-mcp-server` image.
Where do I get the key?
On the `https://lapras.com/config/api-key` page of your account.
Is there a changelog?
Yes, `CHANGELOG.md` sits in the repository along with contribution rules.
