name	tailor-resume
description	Use when tailoring a resume to a specific job description — reads profile/master.json plus a JD and writes a pruned, JD-ranked resumes/<company>/resume.json with a suggest-but-mark [VERIFY] honesty policy. Triggers on "tailor my resume", "resume for this job", "apply to <company>".

Tailor Resume

Turn a job description into a tailored resume that is a faithful, JD-ranked view of the candidate's master profile.

Required reading

Before producing anything, read these and follow them exactly:

• .claude/skills/tailor-resume/references/tailoring-rules.md (canonical behavior)
• .claude/skills/tailor-resume/references/jsonresume-fields.md (field shapes)

Steps

1. Locate the master. Read profile/master.json. If it does not exist, stop and tell the user to run the intake-profile skill first.
2. Get the JD. Accept pasted text or a file path. Identify the target company/role and the key requirements (skills, seniority, domain, keywords).
3. Pick a target folder. resumes/<company>/ using a kebab-cased company-or-role name (e.g. resumes/google/). Confirm the name with the user if ambiguous.
4. Select & rank. Choose the master entries (work, projects, skills, etc.) most relevant to the JD; reorder so the strongest JD-relevant items lead.
5. Rephrase truthfully. Rewrite selected bullets toward the JD's language without changing facts. Apply the suggest-but-mark [VERIFY] rule for any plausible-but-unconfirmed addition.
6. Write the files. Create resumes/<company>/resume.json and resumes/<company>/config.json ({ "visibility": "public" } by default).
7. Validate. Run npm run validate. Fix schema errors. If [VERIFY] markers remain, list each to the user and explain they must confirm or delete before pushing.
8. Report gaps. In chat, give a short "Gaps vs this JD" list of JD requirements absent from the master — never write these into the resume.

Done when

resumes/<company>/resume.json exists, npm run validate passes (or the only blockers are [VERIFY] markers explicitly surfaced to the user), and the gaps report has been delivered.
