claude-resume-kit: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

claude-resume-kit CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from ARPeeketi/claude-resume-kit. It costs 1,387 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Project instructions for a resume-building toolkit that turns research and source material into resumes, cover letters and critiques. It defines the toolkit's file map, workflow and rules against making up information.

In plain words
What is it for?
Preparing source material, building a knowledge base, creating or editing resumes and cover letters, and reviewing the resulting application package.
Why use it?
They give the coding agent the context needed to work safely across the toolkit's separate skills. They also keep generated job-application documents grounded in the supplied evidence.

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

claude-resume-kit CLAUDE.md 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 1mo 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 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.
