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

resume-tailor 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 11d 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.

Resume Tailor

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when the user wants to:

  • Customize their resume for a specific job posting
  • Adjust their resume to match job requirements
  • Create a targeted version of their resume
  • Mentions: "tailor resume", "customize resume", "target role", "specific job", "match job description"

Use AFTER job-description-analyzer to know what to emphasize.

Core Capabilities

  • Reorder experience sections by relevance to target role
  • Adjust professional summary for specific position
  • Add missing keywords from job description
  • Modify bullet points to match job requirements
  • Maintain authenticity while optimizing match
  • Create multiple targeted resume versions

The Tailoring Philosophy

Key Principle: You're not lying or fabricating - you're HIGHLIGHTING the most relevant parts of your true experience.

Think of your full experience as a library of achievements. Tailoring means selecting the books that best fit what each employer is looking for.

Tailoring Process

Step 1: Analyze the Job (Use Job Description Analyzer First)

  • Identify required skills and keywords
  • Note the company's priorities
  • Understand the role's primary responsibilities

Step 2: Audit Your Resume

For each section, ask:

  • Does this support my candidacy for THIS specific role?
  • Is there a better way to phrase this for THIS job?
  • Should this be higher or lower in priority?

Step 3: Make Strategic Adjustments

Professional Summary: Rewrite to mirror the job's key requirements

Skills Section: Reorder to put most relevant skills first, add missing keywords

Experience:

  • Reorder jobs if a less recent role is more relevant
  • Swap bullet points to lead with most relevant achievements
  • Add keywords naturally into existing bullets

Education: Highlight relevant coursework, certifications

Section-by-Section Tailoring Guide

Professional Summary

This is your "elevator pitch" - customize for each application.

Generic Summary (AVOID):

Results-driven professional with 5 years of experience in business operations. Strong analytical and communication skills. Looking for a challenging opportunity to grow.
