skill-transfer

skill-transfer is a skill for Claude Code from tmargolis/career-navigator. It costs 48 tokens per session (498 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

An analysis of the skills and experience in your saved work history that identifies abilities useful in other job types and industries. It separates broadly useful strengths from knowledge tied to one field.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to map your experience to new roles and industries, understand the evidence behind each transferable strength, and identify less obvious career options.
Why use it?
It helps when you want to change direction but are unsure which parts of your background will carry over. It can reveal possible career destinations outside your current path.

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

skill-transfer 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 7d 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

Invoke the analyst agent to identify the user's transferable strengths and map them to new destinations.

Workflow

1. Confirm data exists

Read {user_dir}/CareerNavigator/ExperienceLibrary.json and {user_dir}/CareerNavigator/profile.md. If the ExperienceLibrary units array is empty:

"Your ExperienceLibrary is empty. Run /career-navigator:add-source to add a resume first."

Otherwise, proceed.

2. Invoke analyst — Operation 2

Hand off to the analyst agent with:

  • The full CareerNavigator/ExperienceLibrary.json
  • The full CareerNavigator/profile.md

The agent will identify core capabilities, their transferable form, and the role types and industries where they have high value — including destinations the user may not have considered.

3. Present the analysis

**Transferable Strengths Analysis**

{1–2 sentence highlight: the single most compelling or surprising strength finding — lead with the capability, not a preamble}

Core capabilities identified
1. {Capability name} — {1-sentence description of what the evidence shows}
   Evidence: {specific roles/achievements that demonstrate this}
   High-value destinations: {role types and industries where this is prized}

2. ...

Portable across industries
{Strengths that transfer broadly with minimal repositioning}

Domain-dependent
{Strengths that are valuable but require specific context or credentials to translate}

Non-obvious opportunities
{Role types or industries the user likely hasn't considered, with specific rationale}

4. Suggest next step

"Want me to run an AI displacement assessment to see which of these strengths are most durable? Run /career-navigator:ai-analysis."

Changes

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.
