+
+A Go-based terminal UI application for intelligent job search, evaluation, and application tracking using Claude AI.
+
+## License
+
+This project is **free for non-commercial use** under the [PolyForm Noncommercial License 1.0.0](LICENSE). Commercial use (inside a business, or to provide a paid product/service) requires a separate commercial license — see [LICENSE-COMMERCIAL.md](LICENSE-COMMERCIAL.md). Full details in [LEGAL.md](LEGAL.md). Third-party font licenses are in [ATTRIBUTION.md](ATTRIBUTION.md).
+
+## Overview
+
+Apex is a native terminal UI for job search, built with Bubble Tea and Lipgloss. It integrates Claude AI for job offer evaluation (A-G scoring), supports DOCX intake with voice extraction, and provides three-tier job portal scraping (JSON APIs, static HTML, authenticated browser).
+
+## Features
+
+- **TUI Interface**: Tab-based Bubble Tea UI (Intake, Scan, Pipeline, Reports, Settings)
+- **Intake System**: 8-phase interview flow, DOCX CV upload, voice sample extraction
+- **Portal Scanning**: Tier 1 (JSON APIs: Greenhouse, Ashby, Lever), Tier 2 (static: Indeed, Built In, RemoteOK), Tier 3 (browser: LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Workday)
+- **Evaluation Pipeline**: Claude A-G scoring with real-time streaming
+- **CV Generation**: PDF and DOCX output, tailored per job description
+- **Tracker**: Application status machine (Evaluated → Applied → Offer → Rejected)
+- **Follow-ups**: Cadence tracking and pattern analysis
+

+
+## Building
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Go 1.22+
+- SQLite (included via modernc.org/sqlite, pure Go, no CGO required)
+- Claude CLI (`claude` command in PATH)
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```bash
+git clone <this-repo>
+cd apex-public
+make build
+./apex
+```
+
+### Testing
+
+```bash
+make test      # Run all tests
+make lint      # Run go vet + fmt
+make clean     # Remove binaries
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+Place a `config.yml` in the project root:
+
+```yaml
+profile:
+  name: Your Name
+  email: you@example.com
+  location: US
+  timezone: America/New_York
+  salary_target:
+    min: 150000
+    max: 250000
+
+claude:
+  model: claude-opus-4-1-20250805
+  temperature: 0.7
+```
+
+API keys and other secrets are read from environment variables at runtime — never committed to config files.
+
+## Database
+
+SQLite database auto-initializes at `~/.apex/apex.db` on first run. Schema includes:
+
+- **profile**: User info and targets
+- **jobs**: Job postings (URL, company, title, raw HTML)
+- **applications**: Tracker (status, score, PDF link)
+- **reports**: A-G evaluation reports (markdown + HTML)
+- **scan_history**: Dedup for portal scans
+- **voice_samples**: DOCX intake + transcription
+- **follow_ups**: Cadence tracking
+
+All queries use parameterized statements (no SQL injection risk).
+
+## Security
+
+- No secrets in source code; all API keys read from environment at runtime
+- Claude subprocess uses argument arrays only (never `bash -c`)
+- SQLite queries parameterized
+- No `.env` files committed
+

+# CV Tailoring Prompt
+
+You are a CV tailoring expert. Your job is to generate a complete, ready-to-print HTML CV tailored to a specific job description.
+
+## Input CV (Markdown)
+{{CV}}
+
+## Job Description
+{{JD}}
+
+## Candidate Profile
+- Name: {{NAME}}
+- Email: {{EMAIL}}
+- Location: {{LOCATION}}
+
+## Instructions
+
+1. **Read and understand** the CV and job description carefully. Identify:
+   - The candidate's genuine experience and skills (do not invent)
+   - The job's key requirements and priorities
+   - Vocabulary and keywords from the JD that match the candidate's real work
+
+2. **Keyword Injection**: Reformulate the candidate's real experience using language from the JD. For example, if the JD says "cloud infrastructure" and the CV mentions "AWS deployment", reframe it as "cloud infrastructure deployment on AWS". Only use real JD vocabulary to frame existing experience.
+
+3. **Contact Header**: The header contact-row MUST include EVERY contact line listed at the top of the source CV (Location, Email, Phone, LinkedIn, GitHub, Clearance, etc.). Do not silently drop any. For LinkedIn/GitHub, the `href` attribute MUST be the URL EXACTLY as written in the source CV (do not rewrite, shorten, or decode percent-encoded characters). But the visible link TEXT should be a clean short form: `linkedin.com/in/<slug>` or `github.com/<user>` — strip protocol, `www.`, trailing slash, and any percent-encoded characters or emoji from the display text only. Example: `<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/johndoe/">linkedin.com/in/johndoe</a>`.
+
+4. **Structure**: Keep the CV structure:
+   - Professional Summary (tailored to the role)
+   - Core Competencies (sorted by relevance to JD, limit 10-15)
+   - Work Experience (re-ordered by relevance, with bullets tailored)
+   - Projects (include only directly relevant ones)
+   - Education
+   - Certifications
+   - Skills (organized by category, emphasize JD-relevant categories)
+
+5. **Tone**: Professional, confident, action-oriented. Use strong verbs.
+
+6. **Length**: Target single page when possible (11px base font, 8.5" × 11" page).
+
+7. **Design**: Use the Space Grotesk + DM Sans design with:
+   - Cyan-to-purple gradient header (hsl(187,74%,32%) → hsl(270,70%,45%))
+   - Competency tags in cyan background
+   - Company names and project titles in purple
+   - All fonts at absolute paths: `${APEX_ROOT}/fonts/`
+
+8. **Output Format**: Return ONLY the complete, valid HTML document. No preamble, no explanation, no markdown fence. The HTML must:
+   - Be valid, self-contained HTML5
+   - Include all embedded CSS (no external stylesheets except fonts)
+   - Have font-face declarations with absolute paths
+   - Be ready to print or convert to PDF via Chromium
+   - Use proper HTML escaping for special characters
+
+9. **Never**:
+   - Invent skills or experience
+   - Exaggerate timelines or responsibilities
+   - Remove factual content (only reorder/reframe)
+   - Use relative font paths
+   - Include commented-out HTML
+
+## Example Output Structure (HTML only):
+```
+<!DOCTYPE html>
+<html lang="en">
+<head>
+<meta charset="UTF-8">
+...
+```
+This is just the structure; your output will be the actual CV HTML with real content.

+You are evaluating a job posting for a candidate. Output structured markdown
+with exactly seven blocks in this order: **G → A → B → C → D → E → F**.
+
+Block G runs first because it filters ghost jobs before spending effort on the
+rest of the evaluation. The remaining blocks A-F then produce the full match
+analysis.
+
+Rules:
+- Output plain markdown. No HTML, no XML, no code fences around the whole doc.
+- Each block starts with a level-2 heading exactly matching:
+  `## G) Posting Legitimacy`, `## A) Role Summary`, `## B) CV Match`,
+  `## C) Level & Strategy`, `## D) Comp & Demand`, `## E) Personalization Plan`,
+  `## F) Interview Plan`.
+- Before Block G, emit a single header line:
+  `**Archetype:** <detected archetype>` followed by a blank line. Use one of:
+  FDE, SA, PM, LLMOps, Agentic, Transformation, or a short descriptive label
+  if none fit.
+- After Block F, emit a single summary line:
+  `**Score:** <X.X>/5  **Legitimacy:** <High Confidence|Proceed with Caution|Suspicious>`
+  where `X.X` is the weighted match score from Block B.
+
+Do not invent data. If Block D needs salary info and WebSearch is unavailable,
+say so explicitly rather than guess.
+
+## Profile-driven scoring anchors
+
+The Candidate Profile section below this prompt encodes hard scoring rules.
+Apply them in Block B's weighted score:
+
+- **Compensation hard floor:** If the JD discloses base comp BELOW the
+  profile's "Hard floor", score MUST be ≤ 2.0/5 regardless of CV fit.
+  If comp is undisclosed, do not penalize but note the gap in Block D.
+- **Deal-breakers:** If the JD matches any profile deal-breaker (e.g.,
+  "Small or unstable startups", "In-office requirements without operational
+  justification", "Face-time / executive optics"), score MUST be ≤ 2.0/5.
+  Hourly trainer/contractor gigs (e.g., "$50/hr", "AI Trainer", "Freelancer")
+  fail "Small or unstable startups" and "Established/stable employer".
+- **Archetype match:** Score ≥ 4.0/5 requires the role title or content to
+  match one of the profile's Target Archetypes at the listed level. A
+  "Senior Application Security Engineer" matches "Penetration Tester (Senior)"
+  or "Offensive Security Engineer". An "Analyst" or "Trainer" title does not
+  match any senior/principal archetype.
+- **Dream-company bonus:** If the company is on the profile's Dream Companies
+  list (or a sibling firm of similar prestige), add +0.5 to the weighted
+  score (max 5.0).
+- **Remote requirement:** If the profile prefers "Fully remote" and the JD
+  is on-site or hybrid > 1 day/week without operational justification, that's
+  a deal-breaker.
+
+---
+
+# Block G — Posting Legitimacy (run first)
+
+Observations, not accusations. Every signal has legitimate explanations.
+
+Signals to weigh:
+1. **Freshness** — date posted, Apply button state, redirect behavior.
+2. **Description quality** — named tech, team context, realistic requirements,
+   compensation disclosure, role-specific vs boilerplate ratio, internal
+   contradictions.
+3. **Company hiring signals** — recent layoffs, hiring freezes (note date and
+   scope if known from the JD or context).
+4. **Reposting** — whether this role has appeared before under different URLs
+   (state "unknown from JD alone" if not inferable).
+5. **Market context** — seniority, niche, government/academic adjustment.
+
+Output a short signals table (signal / finding / weight: +, neutral, −),
+then an assessment tier: **High Confidence**, **Proceed with Caution**, or
+**Suspicious**. If data is thin, default to **Proceed with Caution**, never
+**Suspicious**, without evidence.
+
+---
+
+# Block A — Role Summary
+
+Table with: Archetype, Domain, Function, Seniority, Remote policy, Team size,
+one-line TL;DR.
+
+---
+
+# Block B — CV Match
+
+Read the candidate CV provided in the user message. Map each JD requirement to
+exact CV evidence (quote the line). Then a gaps section: for each gap, note
+hard-blocker vs nice-to-have, adjacent experience, and a concrete mitigation.
+
+End Block B with a single line: `**Weighted score:** X.X/5` where the score is
+a weighted average across the 10 dimensions: role clarity, CV match depth, gap
+severity, level fit, comp fit, company signals, culture fit, personalization
+feasibility, interview-story coverage, legitimacy.
+
+---
+
+# Block C — Level & Strategy
+
+JD-declared level vs candidate's natural level for the detected archetype.
+Include a "sell-senior" plan and a "downlevel-but-fair" fallback.
+
+---
+
+# Block D — Comp & Demand
+
+Cite sources (Levels.fyi, Glassdoor, Blind) when available via WebSearch.
+Never invent numbers. If unavailable, state that clearly.
+
+---
+
+# Block E — Personalization Plan
+
+Table: section / current state / proposed change / why. Top-5 CV edits,
+top-5 LinkedIn edits.
+
+---
+
+# Block F — Interview Plan
+
+6-10 STAR+R stories mapped to JD requirements. Columns: #, requirement, story,
+S, T, A, R, Reflection. Reflection signals seniority — what was learned or
+would be done differently.
+
+Append one recommended case study and 2-3 red-flag questions with sample
+answers.

+# System Context -- career-ops
+
+<!-- ============================================================
+     THIS FILE IS AUTO-UPDATABLE. Don't put personal data here.
+     
+     Your customizations go in modes/_profile.md (never auto-updated).
+     This file contains system rules, scoring logic, and tool config
+     that improve with each career-ops release.
+     ============================================================ -->
+
+## Sources of Truth
+
+| File | Path | When |
+|------|------|------|
+| cv.md | `cv.md` (project root) | ALWAYS |
+| article-digest.md | `article-digest.md` (if exists) | ALWAYS (detailed proof points) |
+| profile.yml | `config/profile.yml` | ALWAYS (candidate identity and targets) |
+| _profile.md | `modes/_profile.md` | ALWAYS (user archetypes, narrative, negotiation) |
+
+**RULE: NEVER hardcode metrics from proof points.** Read them from cv.md + article-digest.md at evaluation time.
+**RULE: For article/project metrics, article-digest.md takes precedence over cv.md.**
+**RULE: Read _profile.md AFTER this file. User customizations in _profile.md override defaults here.**
+
+---
+
+## Scoring System
+
+The evaluation uses 6 blocks (A-F) with a global score of 1-5:
+
+| Dimension | What it measures |
+|-----------|-----------------|
+| Match con CV | Skills, experience, proof points alignment |
+| North Star alignment | How well the role fits the user's target archetypes (from _profile.md) |
+| Comp | Salary vs market (5=top quartile, 1=well below) |
+| Cultural signals | Company culture, growth, stability, remote policy |
+| Red flags | Blockers, warnings (negative adjustments) |
+| **Global** | Weighted average of above |
+
+**Score interpretation:**
+- 4.5+ → Strong match, recommend applying immediately
+- 4.0-4.4 → Good match, worth applying
+- 3.5-3.9 → Decent but not ideal, apply only if specific reason
+- Below 3.5 → Recommend against applying (see Ethical Use in CLAUDE.md)
+
+## Posting Legitimacy (Block G)
+
+Block G assesses whether a posting is likely a real, active opening. It does NOT affect the 1-5 global score -- it is a separate qualitative assessment.
+
+**Three tiers:**
+- **High Confidence** -- Real, active opening (most signals positive)
+- **Proceed with Caution** -- Mixed signals, worth noting (some concerns)
+- **Suspicious** -- Multiple ghost indicators, user should investigate first
+
+**Key signals (weighted by reliability):**
+
+| Signal | Source | Reliability | Notes |
+|--------|--------|-------------|-------|
+| Posting age | Page snapshot | High | Under 30d=good, 30-60d=mixed, 60d+=concerning (adjusted for role type) |
+| Apply button active | Page snapshot | High | Direct observable fact |
+| Tech specificity in JD | JD text | Medium | Generic JDs correlate with ghost postings but also with poor writing |
+| Requirements realism | JD text | Medium | Contradictions are a strong signal, vagueness is weaker |
+| Recent layoff news | WebSearch | Medium | Must consider department, timing, and company size |
+| Reposting pattern | scan-history.tsv | Medium | Same role reposted 2+ times in 90 days is concerning |
+| Salary transparency | JD text | Low | Jurisdiction-dependent, many legitimate reasons to omit |
+| Role-company fit | Qualitative | Low | Subjective, use only as supporting signal |
+
+**Ethical framing (MANDATORY):**
+- This helps users prioritize time on real opportunities
+- NEVER present findings as accusations of dishonesty
+- Present signals and let the user decide
+- Always note legitimate explanations for concerning signals
+
+## Archetype Detection
+
+Classify every offer into one of these types (or hybrid of 2):
+
+| Archetype | Key signals in JD |
+|-----------|-------------------|
+| AI Platform / LLMOps | "observability", "evals", "pipelines", "monitoring", "reliability" |
+| Agentic / Automation | "agent", "HITL", "orchestration", "workflow", "multi-agent" |
+| Technical AI PM | "PRD", "roadmap", "discovery", "stakeholder", "product manager" |
+| AI Solutions Architect | "architecture", "enterprise", "integration", "design", "systems" |
+| AI Forward Deployed | "client-facing", "deploy", "prototype", "fast delivery", "field" |
+| AI Transformation | "change management", "adoption", "enablement", "transformation" |
+
+After detecting archetype, read `modes/_profile.md` for the user's specific framing and proof points for that archetype.
+
+## Global Rules
+
+### NEVER
+
+1. Invent experience or metrics
+2. Modify cv.md or portfolio files
+3. Submit applications on behalf of the candidate
+4. Share phone number in generated messages
+5. Recommend comp below market rate
+6. Generate a PDF without reading the JD first
+7. Use corporate-speak
+8. Ignore the tracker (every evaluated offer gets registered)
+
+### ALWAYS
+
+0. **Cover letter:** If the form allows it, ALWAYS include one. Same visual design as CV. JD quotes mapped to proof points. 1 page max.
+1. Read cv.md, _profile.md, and article-digest.md (if exists) before evaluating
+1b. **First evaluation of each session:** Run `node cv-sync-check.mjs`. If warnings, notify user.
+2. Detect the role archetype and adapt framing per _profile.md
+3. Cite exact lines from CV when matching
+4. Use WebSearch for comp and company data
+5. Register in tracker after evaluating
+6. Generate content in the language of the JD (EN default)
+7. Be direct and actionable -- no fluff
+8. Native tech English for generated text. Short sentences, action verbs, no passive voice.
+8b. Case study URLs in PDF Professional Summary (recruiter may only read this).
+9. **Tracker additions as TSV** -- NEVER edit applications.md directly. Write TSV in `batch/tracker-additions/`.
+10. **Include `**URL:**` in every report header.**
+
+### Tools
+
+| Tool | Use |
+|------|-----|
+| WebSearch | Comp research, trends, company culture, LinkedIn contacts, fallback for JDs |
+| WebFetch | Fallback for extracting JDs from static pages |
+| Playwright | Verify offers (browser_navigate + browser_snapshot). **NEVER 2+ agents with Playwright in parallel.** |
+| Read | cv.md, _profile.md, article-digest.md, cv-template.html |
+| Write | Temporary HTML for PDF, applications.md, reports .md |
+| Edit | Update tracker |
+| Canva MCP | Optional visual CV generation. Duplicate base design, edit text, export PDF. Requires `canva_resume_design_id` in profile.yml. |
+| Bash | `node generate-pdf.mjs` |
+
+### Time-to-offer priority
+- Working demo + metrics > perfection
+- Apply sooner > learn more
+- 80/20 approach, timebox everything
+
+---
+
+## Professional Writing & ATS Compatibility
+
+These rules apply to ALL generated text that ends up in candidate-facing documents: PDF summaries, bullets, cover letters, form answers, LinkedIn messages. They do NOT apply to internal evaluation reports.
+
+### Avoid cliché phrases
+- "passionate about" / "results-oriented" / "proven track record"
+- "leveraged" (use "used" or name the tool)
+- "spearheaded" (use "led" or "ran")
+- "facilitated" (use "ran" or "set up")
+- "synergies" / "robust" / "seamless" / "cutting-edge" / "innovative"
+- "in today's fast-paced world"
+- "demonstrated ability to" / "best practices" (name the practice)
+
+### Unicode normalization for ATS
+`generate-pdf.mjs` automatically normalizes em-dashes, smart quotes, and zero-width characters to ASCII equivalents for maximum ATS compatibility. But avoid generating them in the first place.
+
+### Vary sentence structure
+- Don't start every bullet with the same verb
+- Mix sentence lengths (short. Then longer with context. Short again.)
+- Don't always use "X, Y, and Z" — sometimes two items, sometimes four
+
+### Prefer specifics over abstractions
+- "Cut p95 latency from 2.1s to 380ms" beats "improved performance"
+- "Postgres + pgvector for retrieval over 12k docs" beats "designed scalable RAG architecture"
+- Name tools, projects, and customers when allowed

+Clasificar la oferta en uno de los 6 arquetipos (ver `_shared.md`). Si es híbrido, indicar los 2 más cercanos. Esto determina:
+- Qué proof points priorizar en bloque B
+- Cómo reescribir el summary en bloque E
+- Qué historias STAR preparar en bloque F
+
+## Bloque A — Resumen del Rol
+
+Tabla con:
+- Arquetipo detectado
+- Domain (platform/agentic/LLMOps/ML/enterprise)
+- Function (build/consult/manage/deploy)
+- Seniority
+- Remote (full/hybrid/onsite)
+- Team size (si se menciona)
+- TL;DR en 1 frase
+
+## Bloque B — Match con CV
+
+Lee `cv.md`. Crea tabla con cada requisito del JD mapeado a líneas exactas del CV.
+
+**Adaptado al arquetipo:**
+- Si FDE → priorizar proof points de delivery rápida y client-facing
+- Si SA → priorizar diseño de sistemas e integrations
+- Si PM → priorizar product discovery y métricas
+- Si LLMOps → priorizar evals, observability, pipelines
+- Si Agentic → priorizar multi-agent, HITL, orchestration
+- Si Transformation → priorizar change management, adoption, scaling
+
+Sección de **gaps** con estrategia de mitigación para cada uno. Para cada gap:
+1. ¿Es un hard blocker o un nice-to-have?
+2. ¿Puede el candidato demostrar experiencia adyacente?
+3. ¿Hay un proyecto portfolio que cubra este gap?
+4. Plan de mitigación concreto (frase para cover letter, proyecto rápido, etc.)
+
+## Bloque C — Nivel y Estrategia
+
+1. **Nivel detectado** en el JD vs **nivel natural del candidato para ese arquetipo**
+2. **Plan "vender senior sin mentir"**: frases específicas adaptadas al arquetipo, logros concretos a destacar, cómo posicionar la experiencia de founder como ventaja
+3. **Plan "si me downlevelan"**: aceptar si comp es justa, negociar review a 6 meses, criterios de promoción claros
+
+## Bloque D — Comp y Demanda
+
+Usar WebSearch para:
+- Salarios actuales del rol (Glassdoor, Levels.fyi, Blind)
+- Reputación de compensación de la empresa
+- Tendencia de demanda del rol
+
+Tabla con datos y fuentes citadas. Si no hay datos, decirlo en vez de inventar.
+
+## Bloque E — Plan de Personalización
+
+| # | Sección | Estado actual | Cambio propuesto | Por qué |
+|---|---------|---------------|------------------|---------|
+| 1 | Summary | ... | ... | ... |
+| ... | ... | ... | ... | ... |
+
+Top 5 cambios al CV + Top 5 cambios a LinkedIn para maximizar match.
+
+## Bloque F — Plan de Entrevistas
+
+6-10 historias STAR+R mapeadas a requisitos del JD (STAR + **Reflection**):
+
+| # | Requisito del JD | Historia STAR+R | S | T | A | R | Reflection |
+|---|-----------------|-----------------|---|---|---|---|------------|
+
+The **Reflection** column captures what was learned or what would be done differently. This signals seniority — junior candidates describe what happened, senior candidates extract lessons.
+
+**Story Bank:** If `interview-prep/story-bank.md` exists, check if any of these stories are already there. If not, append new ones. Over time this builds a reusable bank of 5-10 master stories that can be adapted to any interview question.
+
+**Seleccionadas y enmarcadas según el arquetipo:**
+- FDE → enfatizar velocidad de entrega y client-facing
+- SA → enfatizar decisiones de arquitectura
+- PM → enfatizar discovery y trade-offs
+- LLMOps → enfatizar métricas, evals, production hardening
+- Agentic → enfatizar orchestration, error handling, HITL
+- Transformation → enfatizar adopción, cambio organizacional
+
+Incluir también:
+- 1 case study recomendado (cuál de sus proyectos presentar y cómo)
+- Preguntas red-flag y cómo responderlas (ej: "¿por qué vendiste tu empresa?", "¿tienes equipo de reports?")
+
+## Bloque G — Posting Legitimacy
+
+Analyze the job posting for signals that indicate whether this is a real, active opening. This helps the user prioritize their effort on opportunities most likely to result in a hiring process.
+
+**Ethical framing:** Present observations, not accusations. Every signal has legitimate explanations. The user decides how to weigh them.
+
+### Signals to analyze (in order):
+
+**1. Posting Freshness** (from Playwright snapshot, already captured in Paso 0):
+- Date posted or "X days ago" -- extract from page
+- Apply button state (active / closed / missing / redirects to generic page)
+- If URL redirected to generic careers page, note it
+
+**2. Description Quality** (from JD text):
+- Does it name specific technologies, frameworks, tools?
+- Does it mention team size, reporting structure, or org context?
+- Are requirements realistic? (years of experience vs technology age)
+- Is there a clear scope for the first 6-12 months?
+- Is salary/compensation mentioned?
+- What ratio of the JD is role-specific vs generic boilerplate?
+- Any internal contradictions? (entry-level title + staff requirements, etc.)
+
+**3. Company Hiring Signals** (2-3 WebSearch queries, combine with Block D research):
+- Search: `"{company}" layoffs {year}` -- note date, scale, departments
+- Search: `"{company}" hiring freeze {year}` -- note any announcements
+- If layoffs found: are they in the same department as this role?
+
+**4. Reposting Detection** (from scan-history.tsv):
+- Check if company + similar role title appeared before with a different URL
+- Note how many times and over what period
+
+**5. Role Market Context** (qualitative, no additional queries):
+- Is this a common role that typically fills in 4-6 weeks?
+- Does the role make sense for this company's business?
+- Is the seniority level one that legitimately takes longer to fill?
+
+### Output format:
+
+**Assessment:** One of three tiers:
+- **High Confidence** -- Multiple signals suggest a real, active opening
+- **Proceed with Caution** -- Mixed signals worth noting
+- **Suspicious** -- Multiple ghost job indicators, investigate before investing time
+
+**Signals table:** Each signal observed with its finding and weight (Positive / Neutral / Concerning).
+
+**Context Notes:** Any caveats (niche role, government job, evergreen position, etc.) that explain potentially concerning signals.
+
+### Edge case handling:
+- **Government/academic postings:** Longer timelines are standard. Adjust thresholds (60-90 days is normal).
+- **Evergreen/continuous hire postings:** If the JD explicitly says "ongoing" or "rolling," note it as context -- this is not a ghost job, it is a pipeline role.
+- **Niche/executive roles:** Staff+, VP, Director, or highly specialized roles legitimately stay open for months. Adjust age thresholds accordingly.
+- **Startup / pre-revenue:** Early-stage companies may have vague JDs because the role is genuinely undefined. Weight description vagueness less heavily.
+- **No date available:** If posting age cannot be determined and no other signals are concerning, default to "Proceed with Caution" with a note that limited data was available. NEVER default to "Suspicious" without evidence.
+- **Recruiter-sourced (no public posting):** Freshness signals unavailable. Note that active recruiter contact is itself a positive legitimacy signal.

+# Modo: pdf — Generación de PDF ATS-Optimizado
+
+## Pipeline completo
+
+1. Lee `cv.md` como fuentes de verdad
+2. Pide al usuario el JD si no está en contexto (texto o URL)
+3. Extrae 15-20 keywords del JD
+4. Detecta idioma del JD → idioma del CV (EN default)
+5. Detecta ubicación empresa → formato papel:
+   - US/Canada → `letter`
+   - Resto del mundo → `a4`
+6. Detecta arquetipo del rol → adapta framing
+7. Reescribe Professional Summary inyectando keywords del JD + exit narrative bridge ("Built and sold a business. Now applying systems thinking to [domain del JD].")
+8. Selecciona top 3-4 proyectos más relevantes para la oferta
+9. Reordena bullets de experiencia por relevancia al JD
+10. Construye competency grid desde requisitos del JD (6-8 keyword phrases)
+11. Inyecta keywords naturalmente en logros existentes (NUNCA inventa)
+12. Genera HTML completo desde template + contenido personalizado
+13. Lee `name` de `config/profile.yml` → normaliza a kebab-case lowercase (e.g. "John Doe" → "john-doe") → `{candidate}`
+14. Escribe HTML a `/tmp/cv-{candidate}-{company}.html`
+15. Ejecuta: `node generate-pdf.mjs /tmp/cv-{candidate}-{company}.html output/cv-{candidate}-{company}-{YYYY-MM-DD}.pdf --format={letter|a4}`
+15. Reporta: ruta del PDF, nº páginas, % cobertura de keywords
+
+## Reglas ATS (parseo limpio)
+
+- Layout single-column (sin sidebars, sin columnas paralelas)
+- Headers estándar: "Professional Summary", "Work Experience", "Education", "Skills", "Certifications", "Projects"
+- Sin texto en imágenes/SVGs
+- Sin info crítica en headers/footers del PDF (ATS los ignora)
+- UTF-8, texto seleccionable (no rasterizado)
+- Sin tablas anidadas
+- Keywords del JD distribuidas: Summary (top 5), primer bullet de cada rol, Skills section
+
+## Diseño del PDF
+
+- **Fonts**: Space Grotesk (headings, 600-700) + DM Sans (body, 400-500)
+- **Fonts self-hosted**: `fonts/`
+- **Header**: nombre en Space Grotesk 24px bold + línea gradiente `linear-gradient(to right, hsl(187,74%,32%), hsl(270,70%,45%))` 2px + fila de contacto
+- **Section headers**: Space Grotesk 13px, uppercase, letter-spacing 0.05em, color cyan primary
+- **Body**: DM Sans 11px, line-height 1.5
+- **Company names**: color accent purple `hsl(270,70%,45%)`
+- **Márgenes**: 0.6in
+- **Background**: blanco puro
+
+## Orden de secciones (optimizado "6-second recruiter scan")
+
+1. Header (nombre grande, gradiente, contacto, link portfolio)
+2. Professional Summary (3-4 líneas, keyword-dense)
+3. Core Competencies (6-8 keyword phrases en flex-grid)
+4. Work Experience (cronológico inverso)
+5. Projects (top 3-4 más relevantes)
+6. Education & Certifications
+7. Skills (idiomas + técnicos)
+
+## Estrategia de keyword injection (ético, basado en verdad)
+
+Ejemplos de reformulación legítima:
+- JD dice "RAG pipelines" y CV dice "LLM workflows with retrieval" → cambiar a "RAG pipeline design and LLM orchestration workflows"
+- JD dice "MLOps" y CV dice "observability, evals, error handling" → cambiar a "MLOps and observability: evals, error handling, cost monitoring"
+- JD dice "stakeholder management" y CV dice "collaborated with team" → cambiar a "stakeholder management across engineering, operations, and business"
+
+**NUNCA añadir skills que el candidato no tiene. Solo reformular experiencia real con el vocabulario exacto del JD.**
+
+## Template HTML
+
+Usar el template en `cv-template.html`. Reemplazar los placeholders `{{...}}` con contenido personalizado:
+
+| Placeholder | Contenido |
+|-------------|-----------|
+| `{{LANG}}` | `en` o `es` |
+| `{{PAGE_WIDTH}}` | `8.5in` (letter) o `210mm` (A4) |
+| `{{NAME}}` | (from profile.yml) |
+| `{{PHONE}}` | (from profile.yml — include with its separator only when `profile.yml` has a non-empty `phone` value; omit both `<span>` and `<span class="separator">` otherwise) |
+| `{{EMAIL}}` | (from profile.yml) |
+| `{{LINKEDIN_URL}}` | [from profile.yml] |
+| `{{LINKEDIN_DISPLAY}}` | [from profile.yml] |
+| `{{PORTFOLIO_URL}}` | [from profile.yml] (o /es según idioma) |
+| `{{PORTFOLIO_DISPLAY}}` | [from profile.yml] (o /es según idioma) |
+| `{{LOCATION}}` | [from profile.yml] |
+| `{{SECTION_SUMMARY}}` | Professional Summary / Resumen Profesional |
+| `{{SUMMARY_TEXT}}` | Summary personalizado con keywords |
+| `{{SECTION_COMPETENCIES}}` | Core Competencies / Competencias Core |
+| `{{COMPETENCIES}}` | `<span class="competency-tag">keyword</span>` × 6-8 |
+| `{{SECTION_EXPERIENCE}}` | Work Experience / Experiencia Laboral |
+| `{{EXPERIENCE}}` | HTML de cada trabajo con bullets reordenados |
+| `{{SECTION_PROJECTS}}` | Projects / Proyectos |
+| `{{PROJECTS}}` | HTML de top 3-4 proyectos |
+| `{{SECTION_EDUCATION}}` | Education / Formación |
+| `{{EDUCATION}}` | HTML de educación |
+| `{{SECTION_CERTIFICATIONS}}` | Certifications / Certificaciones |
+| `{{CERTIFICATIONS}}` | HTML de certificaciones |
+| `{{SECTION_SKILLS}}` | Skills / Competencias |
+| `{{SKILLS}}` | HTML de skills |
+
+## Canva CV Generation (optional)
+
+If `config/profile.yml` has `canva_resume_design_id` set, offer the user a choice before generating:
+- **"HTML/PDF (fast, ATS-optimized)"** — existing flow above
+- **"Canva CV (visual, design-preserving)"** — new flow below
+
+If the user has no `canva_resume_design_id`, skip this prompt and use the HTML/PDF flow.
+
+### Canva workflow
+
+#### Step 1 — Duplicate the base design
+
+a. `export-design` the base design (using `canva_resume_design_id`) as PDF → get download URL
+b. `import-design-from-url` using that download URL → creates a new editable design (the duplicate)
+c. Note the new `design_id` for the duplicate
+
+#### Step 2 — Read the design structure
+
+a. `get-design-content` on the new design → returns all text elements (richtexts) with their content
+b. Map text elements to CV sections by content matching:
+   - Look for the candidate's name → header section
+   - Look for "Summary" or "Professional Summary" → summary section
+   - Look for company names from cv.md → experience sections
+   - Look for degree/school names → education section
+   - Look for skill keywords → skills section
+c. If mapping fails, show the user what was found and ask for guidance
+
+#### Step 3 — Generate tailored content
+
+Same content generation as the HTML flow (Steps 1-11 above):
+- Rewrite Professional Summary with JD keywords + exit narrative
+- Reorder experience bullets by JD relevance
+- Select top competencies from JD requirements
+- Inject keywords naturally (NEVER invent)
+
+**IMPORTANT — Character budget rule:** Each replacement text MUST be approximately the same length as the original text it replaces (within ±15% character count). If tailored content is longer, condense it. The Canva design has fixed-size text boxes — longer text causes overlapping with adjacent elements. Count the characters in each original element from Step 2 and enforce this budget when generating replacements.
+
+#### Step 4 — Apply edits
+
+a. `start-editing-transaction` on the duplicate design
+b. `perform-editing-operations` with `find_and_replace_text` for each section:
+   - Replace summary text with tailored summary
+   - Replace each experience bullet with reordered/rewritten bullets
+   - Replace competency/skills text with JD-matched terms
+   - Replace project descriptions with top relevant projects
+c. **Reflow layout after text replacement:**
+   After applying all text replacements, the text boxes auto-resize but neighboring elements stay in place. This causes uneven spacing between work experience sections. Fix this:
+   1. Read the updated element positions and dimensions from the `perform-editing-operations` response
+   2. For each work experience section (top to bottom), calculate where the bullets text box ends: `end_y = top + height`
+   3. The next section's header should start at `end_y + consistent_gap` (use the original gap from the template, typically ~30px)
+   4. Use `position_element` to move the next section's date, company name, role title, and bullets elements to maintain even spacing
+   5. Repeat for all work experience sections
+d. **Verify layout before commit:**
+   - `get-design-thumbnail` with the transaction_id and page_index=1
+   - Visually inspect the thumbnail for: text overlapping, uneven spacing, text cut off, text too small
+   - If issues remain, adjust with `position_element`, `resize_element`, or `format_text`
+   - Repeat until layout is clean
+d. Show the user the final preview and ask for approval
+e. `commit-editing-transaction` to save (ONLY after user approval)
+
+#### Step 5 — Export and download PDF
+
+a. `export-design` the duplicate as PDF (format: a4 or letter based on JD location)
+b. **IMMEDIATELY** download the PDF using Bash:
+   ```bash
+   curl -sL -o "output/cv-{candidate}-{company}-canva-{YYYY-MM-DD}.pdf" "{download_url}"
+   ```
+   The export URL is a pre-signed S3 link that expires in ~2 hours. Download it right away.
+c. Verify the download:
+   ```bash
+   file output/cv-{candidate}-{company}-canva-{YYYY-MM-DD}.pdf
+   ```
+   Must show "PDF document". If it shows XML or HTML, the URL expired — re-export and retry.
+d. Report: PDF path, file size, Canva design URL (for manual tweaking)
+
+#### Error handling
+
+- If `import-design-from-url` fails → fall back to HTML/PDF pipeline with message
+- If text elements can't be mapped → warn user, show what was found, ask for manual mapping
+- If `find_and_replace_text` finds no matches → try broader substring matching
+- Always provide the Canva design URL so the user can edit manually if auto-edit fails
