SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Starting a job search with an AI agent requires a complete, accurate professional profile, but manually filling in profile files, CV templates, and search queries is tedious and error-prone. This Skill automates the onboarding so the downstream /apply and /scrape workflows work out of the box. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Three onboarding paths: Read an entire documents folder (CVs, LinkedIn exports, diplomas, reference letters), import a single pasted CV, or run a guided interview mode section by section. - Idempotent document merging: Cross-references documents for date, title, and education inconsistencies, then proposes additive and conflicting changes for explicit user confirmation before writing. - Full profile generation: Populates seven profile files (candidate profile, behavioral profile, writing style, job evaluation, CV and cover letter templates, interview prep) plus AGENTS.md, a LaTeX CV, and job search queries. - Use Case: Drop your CV, LinkedIn export, and diplomas into the documents folder, run /setup, confirm the proposed changes, and immediately run /scrape to find matching job postings. ## Quick Start Run /setup to onboard my professional profile from the documents folder so the job application workflow is ready to use.

FAQPage Schema
How do I set up an AI job search profile from my existing documents?▼

Place your CV, LinkedIn export, diplomas, and reference letters in the documents folder, then run /setup and choose Path A. The workflow reads everything, cross-references for inconsistencies, and proposes confirmed changes to your profile files.

How to update only job search queries without redoing full profile setup?▼

Run /setup with the --section search argument to enter an update-only flow for search configuration. This regenerates role titles, skills, locations, and portal settings in search-queries.md without touching other profile sections.

Can I re-run the setup after adding new documents?▼

Yes, the documents-folder path is read-before-write and idempotent. Re-running it only proposes additive changes for new content and surfaces conflicts for explicit resolution, never duplicating or overwriting existing entries.

Is my personal data safe when using a forked job search template?▼

The setup checks your git origin before writing anything and warns if it is a public GitHub fork, since profile files contain personal data and are git-tracked. Keep profile commits local or push to a private repository instead.

What happens when my CV and LinkedIn export disagree on job titles?▼

The cross-reference step detects date, title, education, and employer mismatches across documents and presents them as a numbered list. You resolve each conflict by choosing to keep, replace, or manually edit before any files are written.
