name	batch
description	Batch parallel evaluation of multiple job offers via subagents. Triggers on batch evaluate, batch process, mass evaluate, parallel jobs.

Batch — Mass Processing of Jobs

Read ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/career-ops/references/scoring-system.md first.

Data Paths

• Batch input: ~/.openclaw/workspace/career-ops-data/batch/batch-input.tsv
• Batch state: ~/.openclaw/workspace/career-ops-data/batch/batch-state.tsv
• Reports: ~/.openclaw/workspace/career-ops-data/reports/
• Tracker: ~/.openclaw/workspace/career-ops-data/data/applications.md

Architecture

Each job is processed by a subagent (spawned via OpenClaw sessions_spawn) with a clean context. The main agent orchestrates.

Workflow (Conductor Mode)

1. Read batch/batch-state.tsv to identify what's already processed
2. For each pending URL: a. Calculate next sequential report number b. Spawn a subagent with the full evaluation prompt (A-G + report + PDF) c. Update batch-state.tsv (completed/failed + score + report_num) d. Log to batch/logs/{report_num}-{id}.log
3. If 3+ pending URLs, spawn subagents in parallel
4. After all complete: merge batch/tracker-additions/ → applications.md

Subagent Prompt

Each subagent receives the evaluate skill prompt plus:

• The specific job URL or text
• The report number to use
• Instructions to save report and generate PDF

Error Handling

Error	Recovery
URL inaccessible	Mark failed, continue
JD behind login	Mark failed, continue
PDF fails	Report saved, PDF pending
Subagent timeout	Mark failed, can retry with --retry-failed
