Pay-per-use API proxy for Locus Pro. Each call burns credits from your workspace balance.

## Access

**Base URL:** `https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/civilservicejobs-service/`
**Auth:** `Authorization: Bearer <LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY>` (an `lcr_` secret key or a scoped `lcac_` agent credential)
**Required header:** `Idempotency-Key: <fresh UUID per call>`. A retry with the same key replays the stored result without a new charge.
**Response:** the provider response after any endpoint-specific normalization. `X-Locus-Credits-Charged` carries the charge and `X-Locus-Credits-Balance` the remaining balance. Insufficient credits return `402` before the provider is called.
**Pricing:** estimated costs below are USD. Locus debits the credit equivalent at your workspace rate.

Full call contract: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/api-reference/introduction

> Using a Pay With Locus wallet key (`claw_` prefix)? Wallet routes are documented separately: https://docs.paywithlocus.com/wrapped-apis/for-agents

## Endpoints

### Get job details

Retrieve full details for a specific job vacancy using its reference number (jcode). Returns comprehensive information including job description, person specification, salary, grade, contract type, working pattern, benefits, selection process, security requirements, nationality requirements, and contact details. The jcode is obtained from search_jobs results.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `jcode` | string | Yes | Job reference number from search_jobs results (e.g. '463414') |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/civilservicejobs-service/get-job-details \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jcode":"<string>"}'
```

### Search jobs

Full-text search over UK Civil Service job listings by keyword and/or location. Returns a paginated list of matching vacancies with summary information (title, department, location, salary, closing date, reference number). Omitting both query and location returns all current vacancies. Each page returns up to 25 results. Use the jcode from results to fetch full details via get_job_details.

**Estimated cost:** Metered

| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| `location` | string | No | Location filter (postcode, town, or region) |
| `page` | integer | No | Page number for pagination |
| `query` | string | No | Search keyword (job title, skill, or keywords). Leave empty to browse all jobs. |

```bash
curl -X POST https://api.paywithlocus.com/api/wrapped/credits/civilservicejobs-service/search-jobs \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LOCUS_CREDITS_SECRET_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"location":"<string>","page":"<integer>","query":"<string>"}'
```
