update

update is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from alwaysmap/jobs4me. It costs 109 tokens per session (2,071 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill for changing the status of tracked job applications or other roles through stages such as applied, interviewing, offered, rejected, or declined.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for recording actions and outcomes such as applying, scheduling an interview, declining a role, receiving an offer, or reporting a rejection.
Why use it?
It keeps role records aligned with the latest outcome instead of leaving applications in outdated stages.

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

update 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 3d 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 — 161 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Update Role Status

Shell setup: Always export JFM_DIR='<workspace path>' (single quotes) before running tracker commands. The script refuses to operate if it can't resolve a real workspace.

Read ../search/references/routing.md before processing any user message — it defines how to decompose compound messages and where to route each type of input.

Update the stage or status of a tracked role, including declining roles.

Parse the user's input as: Company Name - status with an optional note/reason after. Examples:

  • /jfm:update Acme - applied
  • /jfm:update Acme - interviewing phone screen scheduled for Thursday
  • /jfm:update Acme - rejected got the generic "moved forward with other candidates" email
  • /jfm:update Acme - closed posting removed, assume filled
  • /jfm:update Acme - decline too much travel
  • /jfm:update Acme - not interested, too enterprise-y

Valid stages: suggested, maybe, applied, interviewing, offered, rejected, closed, declined

Common shorthand the user might use (map these to stages):

  • "applied", "submitted" -> applied
  • "interviewing", "interview", "phone screen", "screen" -> interviewing
  • "offered", "offer" -> offered
  • "rejected", "passed", "no" -> rejected
  • "closed", "ghosted", "filled", "removed" -> closed
  • "interested", "maybe" -> maybe
  • "decline", "declined", "not interested", "pass", "skip", "nah" -> declined

Steps

  1. Find the application by company name:

    node ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/tracker.js find --company "Company Name"
    

    If multiple roles at the same company, ask which one.

  2. If declining (stage is declined):

    Extract the reason from the user's message (everything after the status keyword).

    node ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/tracker.js decline --id <id> --reason "reason text"
    

    The response includes a top-level stored_at map pointing to where the value landed in tracker.yaml — use it to confirm (e.g. stored_at.reason === "decision.reason") rather than guessing field paths. To decline several roles at once, use batch-decline --ids a,b,c --reason "..." — its response carries the same stored_at block at the top level (present only when at least one decline succeeded).

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.
