Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00084 | $0.01842 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00042 | $0.00921 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00017 | $0.00368 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00184 |
Grade A, and why
job-application-optimizer 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 6d 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 — 275 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Job Application Optimizer
Strategic job application planning and "Resume SEO" optimization. This skill teaches Claude to approach job applications like a marketing campaign - researching the market, qualifying opportunities, and optimizing content for maximum conversion.
When to Activate
Activate on:
- "optimize my resume for this job"
- "should I apply to this job"
- "tailor my resume"
- "ATS optimization"
- "keyword optimization"
- "job search strategy"
- "application strategy"
- "resume SEO"
- "job fit score"
NOT for:
- Initial career narrative creation (use career-biographer)
- Portfolio website design (use cv-creator directly)
- Market positioning analysis (use competitive-cartographer)
- General resume formatting (use cv-creator directly)
Core Philosophy: Resume SEO
Treat job applications like search engine optimization:
| SEO Concept | Resume Equivalent |
|---|---|
| Search query | Job description |
| Web page | Resume |
| Keywords | Skills & requirements |
| Meta description | Professional summary |
| H1 heading | Job title/headline |
| Content quality | Achievement metrics |
| Keyword density | Skills frequency (2-4% optimal) |
| Backlinks | Referrals & endorsements |
| Page speed | Scan time (<6 seconds) |
Strategic Framework
1. Opportunity Qualification
Before optimizing, determine if the job is worth applying to:
APPLY signals:
- Match score >65% on core requirements
- <3 years experience gap
- Transferable skills cover >50% of gaps
- Company culture aligns (green flags)
- Compensation in range
SKIP signals:
- Match score <50% with hard blockers
- >5 years experience gap
- Required certifications you don't have
- Multiple red flags (rockstar, wear many hats)
- Major relocation required (if not willing)
2. Keyword Research
Like SEO keyword research, extract and prioritize:
Primary Keywords (must include):
- Job title (exact match)
- Top 5 required skills
- Required certifications
- Industry/domain terms
What ships with it

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.

job-application-optimizer is a skill published in the GitHub repository curiositech/some_claude_skills (216 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 84 tokens to every session and 1,842 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 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 2026-09-03.
