fit-check

fit-check is a skill for Claude Code from benskamps/career-compass-mcp. It costs 35 tokens per session (330 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A job-posting fit checker that compares a role with your work history. It gives a verdict, the strongest supporting evidence, and gaps that may need attention.

In plain words
What is it for?
Paste a job posting or its text to assess whether the role is a strong fit, a stretch, or a long shot, then identify the top gaps and decide whether to tailor your résumé or track the application.
Why use it?
It replaces a vague impression of whether to apply with a focused view of your matching experience and missing evidence. It also points to a practical next step for the application.

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

fit-check 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 2d 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

The user wants a fit check on the job posting below.

  • If no posting is included, ask them to paste it and stop.
  • If the Career Compass tools are available, use explore_opportunity with the posting. If it says there is no saved history yet, ask them to paste a résumé first (that is the only question), run explore_opportunity again with the pasted text as resume, then offer to save the résumé with save_career_section.
  • If the tools are not available, follow "Doing the work without the tools" in the career-compass skill, asking them to paste or attach a résumé if you have nothing of theirs. In claude.ai chat the closing offer is the Career Compass card.

Lead with the verdict (strong, stretch, or long shot) in one line, then the evidence and the top two gaps. Finish by offering one next step: tailor the résumé, track it with pipeline_add, or "paste the next posting and I'll tell you which to apply to first".

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.
