cover-letter

cover-letter is a command for Claude Code from soheilfallah/jobxhunter. It costs 15 tokens per session (431 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that writes a UK-style cover letter for a particular job in the user’s own voice. It uses the job description, the user’s profile, and verifiable public information about the employer.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to draft a finished cover letter that names the employer, explains why the employer fits, matches the advert, and follows the required writing and humanisation checks.
Why use it?
It produces a complete letter while tying factual claims to profile evidence and preserving supplied wording, so the letter does not rely on unsupported achievements or placeholders.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cover-letter scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Use the jobxhunter skill's COVER LETTER routine.

Draft first — never ask for a brain-dump. Write the letter complete from the JD + profile, name the employer in the body, and build the "why this employer" paragraph from the advert and verifiable public knowledge. If the user volunteers their own words (typed, or a voice-note transcript), treat them as source text and preserve their voice. Every factual claim maps to profile evidence. Deliver it finished — no placeholders, no "draft" label.

Follow SKILL.md ("Command: COVER LETTER").

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
