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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.01005 | $0.01005 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00402 | $0.00402 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00201 | $0.00201 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00101 | $0.00101 |
Grade A, and why
dear-hiring-manager 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 61 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
CLAUDE.md — dear-hiring-manager
Guidance for any agent working in this repo. Also read PLAN.md, PRD.md, TODO.md if present —
local planning docs, gitignored (not in fresh clones).
What this is
A Claude Code plugin that assists job applications: extract the JD, score fit, fill the form via Playwright, and stop before Submit for the human. Not a standalone agent — Claude Code is the runtime; this repo is the skill/knowledge layer. (Phase 3 later adds a real daemon.)
Architecture principle
AI understands; code + the browser execute. The LLM reads pages, fields, JD, matching, cover letters. Playwright does open/click/type/wait. Never make the LLM the hands.
Layout
.claude-plugin/plugin.json·marketplace.json— plugin + marketplace (dhm, hosted on GitHub).mcp.json— bundles Playwright MCP (@playwright/mcp)commands/— thin entry points (/dear-hiring-manager:onboard,:apply)skills/onboarding/SKILL.md— interview →profile.md, parse resume, seedanswers.mdskills/apply/SKILL.md— the assisted-apply procedure (the core logic)templates/—profile/answers/applicationstemplates (copied to user data dir)PLAN.md(phases) ·PRD.md(design + traceability) ·TODO.md(backlog) — local planning docs, gitignored (not shipped)
User data (never in repo)
~/.dear-hiring-manager/: profile.md, answers.md (append-only Q&A "RAG"), applications.md
(tracker), resume.*. Flat Markdown — human-readable, no DB, no extra API keys.
Invariants (do not break)
- Never click Submit. Human owns the last click.
- Never solve/evade CAPTCHA. Hit one → stop, hand to human.
- Portal accounts (Workday/iCIMS/etc.): agent may auto-create/login with the profile email + a
unique generated password stored in the macOS Keychain (
securityCLI) — never a password in a file, never reused across portals. Email-verification + signup CAPTCHA/2FA → pause for the human. - Multi-page wizards: fill each page, click Next, stop only at the FINAL Submit.
- Never auto-attest unconfirmed legal answers (non-compete/felony/etc.). Blank in profile → flag, don't fill. Legal defaults are written only after explicit onboarding confirmation.
- Voluntary EEO blank → "prefer not to answer" (never flag, never block).
- Work authorization is per role country — answer for the role's country, not the profile's raw yes/no (NL+EU auth + US role → authorized No, sponsorship Yes).
- Fit score is the FIRST FILTER — below the profile's
Minimum fit score to apply(default 50) or hard-ineligible → stop before filling anything. - Fill or flag every required field — never leave one silently blank.
- answers.md is append-only — human edits win by being newer, never overwrite.
- Tracker status lifecycle:
in-progress(JD extracted) →skipped(gated) /filled(parked at Submit) →submitted.
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.

dear-hiring-manager CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository extrasmall0/dear-hiring-manager (111 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,005 tokens to every session, about $0.0040 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
