Use this matrix to keep CLI, skills, and MCP integrations aligned across different agent entry points.
Compatibility modes assisted and research can both call every implemented capability and no longer produce mode-level COMPLIANCE_BLOCKED. Missing platform implementations return NOT_SUPPORTED; long workflows remain bounded, redacted, checkpointed, and stoppable. Use boss schema availability and risk metadata as the source of truth.

Notes:
- Transport:
httpx means a direct API call. Risk-control blocks stop the workflow. Browser/hook adapters may not retry without bounds and must preserve checkpoints and redaction. AI service means a third-party model API; do not send chat records, resumes, or contact details without authorization.
- Existing-browser sessions: a connected Bridge is this slice's explicit-use signal, but it does not prove that the target page is logged in. Exhausted candidates return
BROWSER_SESSION_NOT_FOUND plus boss doctor; no Bridge plus no stored credentials still returns AUTH_REQUIRED plus boss login. The browser path does not inherit httpx stoken-refresh or rate-limit retries.
- For CLI-first integrations, prefer
boss schema for capability discovery and parameter validation; the schema exposes both supported_platforms and supported_recruiter_platforms.
- Current platform coverage:
boss platforms reports the registered local adapters; zhipin has both candidate and recruiter implementations, while zhilian supports candidate-side workflows and recruiter automation through the agent browser/CDP adapter V1.
crawl uses an isolated Chrome profile, cross-process rate budgets, SQLite checkpoints, and the crawl stop kill switch. Fine-grained MCP crawl tools provide local crawl_status/results/shortlist operations for existing runs, while boss_wizard can start, resume, and stop the shared workflow. The default Hook is none; local Hook directories must provide SHA256SUMS. Risk codes, a security page, or an exhausted budget stop it and return a resume command.- Use
boss schema as the source of truth: it currently exposes 39 top-level commands, with 13 first-level recruiter subcommands under hr, while ai and resume remain command-group entries.
