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

candidate-screening 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 4d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (eam_client.py, scripts/render_screening.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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 — 147 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Dual-mode operation (Code + Cowork)

HTML pelo design system (obrigatório). Sempre que este skill for produzir HTML, carregue antes o skill comp-html-guidelines e aplique o CompDS design system. Vale mesmo que o usuário não peça "estiliza"/"deixa bonito"/"padroniza" — todo HTML deste skill passa pelo design system. Isso não altera a metodologia abaixo; governa só a camada visual do HTML.

Detect platform at start:

  • If you have the Bash tool AND can run Python → use script mode (writes the rich HTML/markdown file). Existing workflow below.
  • Otherwise (e.g., Claude Cowork) → use inline mode: gather the same inputs conversationally, then produce the output directly in chat as markdown following the structure below. If an HTML artifact tool is available, ALSO render a self-contained HTML version (Tailwind CDN) matching the script's template.

Inline generation logic (Cowork mode)

Inputs a coletar: contexto/critérios da vaga (idealmente do job-profile-builder; se não houver scorecard, derive 4-6 critérios) e os candidatos (paste de perfis, CSV, CVs, transcrições). Mesma lógica de avaliação dos Steps 1-3 abaixo.

Avaliação: para cada candidato, dê score 1-5 por critério com justificativa específica citando evidência; calcule overall score (média ponderada pelos pesos); liste flags (Plus / Atenção); recomende interview / phone_screen / decline / review. Ranqueie por overall score desc.

Estrutura de saída (mesma do script). Renderize em markdown direto no chat:

# Candidate Screening: {cargo}

{N} candidato(s) avaliado(s).

## Ranking
| # | Candidato | Cargo atual | Score | Recomendação |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | **{nome}** | {cargo atual} | {0.0} | {Entrevistar/Phone screen/Declinar/Revisar} |

## Detalhes por candidato

### {nome}: {0.0}
*{cargo atual}*. **Recomendação:** {label}

- **{critério}** ({score}/5): {justificativa}

**Flags:**
- {flag}

Régua de qualidade (mesma da seção "Princípios da boa avaliação" abaixo): score sempre com evidência; calibração 1-5; honestidade no decline; deal-breaker manda em decline mesmo com score alto nos demais.

Files

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
