We Work Remotely Collect
Collect recent public postings from We Work Remotely's published RSS feed and
return normalized JSON (docs/SCHEMA.md). Self-contained: this skill's
collect.py carries its own fetch + parse and depends only on curl_cffi,
beautifulsoup4, lxml.
Boundaries
- Read-only. GET of a published public RSS feed only. Never log in, save a
job, message, or apply.
- No fabrication. Fields the feed does not expose are
null; titles,
companies, regions, and dates are copied verbatim.
- A collected posting reflects the feed at run time; it is not proof the role is
still open.
Run
If collect.py fails with ModuleNotFoundError, install the deps yourself
(pip install curl_cffi beautifulsoup4 lxml) and retry — do not ask the user
to install anything.
pip install curl_cffi beautifulsoup4 lxml
python3 skills/weworkremotely-collect/collect.py --query "engineer" --limit 20
python3 skills/weworkremotely-collect/collect.py --category remote-programming-jobs
--query, -q — filter the feed by title/company substring (client-side).--category, -c — category feed slug, e.g. remote-programming-jobs,
remote-design-jobs, remote-devops-sysadmin-jobs. Default: the all-jobs feed.--limit, -n — max postings (default 20).--pretty — indent the JSON.
Output: a JSON array on stdout; a one-line count on stderr. The RSS feed exposes
company (split from Company: Role titles), region, employment type, and
publish date.
Notes
- Source:
SRC-JOB-WEWORKREMOTELY — https://weworkremotely.com/ (collectible_open,
re-verified 2026-07-07). RSS (/remote-jobs.rss, /categories/<slug>.rss) is
the stable interface — prefer it over scraping the HTML listing.
external_id is the posting slug from the URL.
