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

apply-pilot 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 9d 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.

CLAUDE.md - Job Application Automation System

This file provides guidance to Claude Code when working with this repository.


What This System Does

An 8-agent automation system that transforms job descriptions into complete application packages:

  • Input: Job description + your profile
  • Output: Tailored resume, cover letter, outreach strategy, ready-to-send DOCX files

Quick Start (3 Steps)

1. Set Up Your Profile (2 min)

  • YOUR_PROFILE/USER_PROFILE.md - Fill with your contact info, work history, education, resume distribution
  • YOUR_PROFILE/USER_BULLETS.md - Add 40-60 accomplishment bullets (each 240-260 chars)
  • See examples/ folder for reference

2. Run the System (1 min)

claude
/apply
# Paste job description when prompted

3. Get Your Materials (Automatic)

Output in APPLICATIONS/[Company]_[Role]/:

  • JD.md - Fit score and execution strategy
  • RESUME.md - 13 tailored bullets (240-260 chars each)
  • COVERLETTER.md - 4-paragraph cover letter
  • OUTREACH.md - 6-track outreach strategy
  • [Company]_[Role]/*.docx - Ready to submit

Slash Commands

/apply - Complete Application Package

When: You have a job description ready Output: JD.md, RESUME.md, COVERLETTER.md, OUTREACH.md + DOCX files

/init - System Validation

When: First time setup, troubleshooting Output: Validates dependencies, checks file structure


System Architecture

Agents (8 total)

  1. JD Assessor - Analyzes JD, scores fit, recommends spinning strategy
  2. Resume Creator - Selects bullets, applies spinning, creates resume
  3. Resume Verifier - Validates character counts, structure, quality
  4. CoverLetter Creator - Creates 4-paragraph minimalist cover letter
  5. CoverLetter Verifier - Validates word count, format
  6. Outreach Creator - Creates multi-track outreach with 3-tier escalation
  7. Outreach Verifier - Validates message quality, personalization
  8. Application Orchestrator - Coordinates all agents, handles retries

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.
