resumery: Instructions file for Claude Code

CLAUDE.md

resumery CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for Claude Code from ledq/resumery. It costs 308 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Resume-tailoring instructions for matching a candidate’s real experience to one job description at a time. They define how to choose wording while keeping every factual claim tied to an evidence bank.

In plain words
What is it for?
Tailoring resumes to individual job descriptions, selecting the strongest evidence, and writing truthful application materials in the required JSON format.
Why use it?
They prevent resumes from inventing experience, results, or numbers while still presenting relevant work clearly. They also give the process consistent rules for claims, framing, and punctuation.

This is ledq/resumery's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on resumery itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything resumery configures →

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

resumery 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 2mo 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

Resume Tailoring

Tailors the candidate's resume to one job description (JD) per run. Each run lives in its own application workspace (applications/<id>/). Agents author resume content as JSON (the workspace's resume.json). The candidate's real experience lives in bank/experience_bank.md, the only source of facts.

Objective

Surface and frame the candidate's experience to match the JD as fully as the evidence allows, and not one claim further: maximum truthful match. The edge is a rich evidence bank, not a flat resume, so there is more true material to surface than a one-page resume could show.

The Rule: claim vs. framing

  • Claims are checkable facts: titles, employers, dates, degrees, credentials, whether an accomplishment happened. They must be true; this record layer has zero degrees of freedom.
  • Framing is how true work is presented: which skills lead, which bullets are chosen, the words describing real work. Optimize it freely, limited only by truth.

Every claim on the resume must trace to the bank. Reframing real experience to fit the JD is the job; inventing experience, outcomes, or numbers is the one thing never allowed.

Punctuation

No em dashes (the "—" character). Join clauses with semicolons, set off asides with commas, introduce with colons. Spell out the "~" shorthand ("about").

Changes

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.
