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

Job Description Analyzer 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 5d 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.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when the user:

  • Wants to analyze a job posting
  • Asks "should I apply to this job?"
  • Wants to know their match percentage for a role
  • Needs help understanding job requirements
  • Wants to tailor their resume for a specific position
  • Mentions: "analyze this job", "am I qualified", "match score", "should I apply"

Use this BEFORE resume tailoring to ensure effort is worth it.

Core Capabilities

  • Extract and categorize job requirements (must-have vs nice-to-have)
  • Calculate match score between user's experience and job requirements
  • Identify skill gaps and strengths
  • Detect red flags in job postings
  • Prioritize which experiences to highlight
  • Generate resume tailoring strategy
  • Create cover letter talking points
  • Assess company culture fit indicators

The Strategic Problem

Most job seekers waste time on:

  • Jobs they're under-qualified for (<60% match)
  • Jobs they're over-qualified for (flight risk)
  • Jobs with red flags (high turnover, toxic culture)
  • Applying to 50+ jobs blindly hoping something sticks

Better approach:

  • Apply to 10-15 jobs strategically
  • Target 70-90% match jobs
  • Customize deeply for each
  • Higher response rate, less burnout

Analysis Process

Step 1: Extract Requirements

Break job description into categories:

Required (Must-Have)

  • Education requirements
  • Years of experience
  • Specific technical skills
  • Certifications/licenses
  • Industry experience

Preferred (Nice-to-Have)

  • "Bonus" skills
  • Advanced certifications
  • Domain expertise
  • Specific tool experience

Soft Skills/Culture

  • Communication style
  • Work environment
  • Team structure
  • Company values

Step 2: Keyword Extraction

Identify three types:

Hard Skills (Technical abilities)

  • Tools: Salesforce, Python, AWS, Excel
  • Methodologies: Agile, Six Sigma, SDLC
  • Certifications: PMP, CPA, AWS Certified

Soft Skills (Interpersonal)

  • Leadership, collaboration, communication
  • Problem-solving, critical thinking
  • Adaptability, initiative
