The problem: Resume tailoring is expensive. Paid services promise AI-powered optimization, but most are template-filling bots that don't understand your experience or the actual job requirements. Manually customizing resumes for each application is slow, subjective, and draining—you're guessing which achievements matter and which skills to emphasize.
The solution: AI agents analyze job postings and extract weighted requirements (React: priority 10, Python: priority 7). Then they use specialty-based scoring to automatically select your most relevant experience. The /tailor command lets you collaborate with Claude in real-time to refine the output while watching changes in your browser.
The result: Data-driven optimization that takes 60 seconds instead of 2 hours, and actually matches what the job requires. Best part: It's completely free and open-source. No paywalls, no subscriptions, no proprietary algorithms locked behind corporate walls—just you, Claude, and a tool that actually works.

Each resume-data/tailor/[company-name]/ folder contains AI-optimized files:
metadata.yaml — Job context extracted from the posting (position, top skills, company details)job_analysis.yaml — Weighted requirements with skills ranked 1-10, candidate gap analysis, and optimization strategyresume.yaml — Tailored content with specialty-matched achievements and prioritized technical expertisecover_letter.yaml — Personalized letter emphasizing your alignment with the job's weighted focus areasThe intelligence: The system doesn't just template-fill. It uses weighted scoring to select which of your achievements are most relevant for this specific job. React mentioned 5 times in the posting? Your React projects get prioritized. Simple as that.
You can see the resume generator in action without using any of your own data.
