This rule rides along with the posting text into every later step and agent prompt.

**Deadline urgency is the one clock that does apply to a drafted row.** Show the `deadline` column when the row has one and leave it blank otherwise. Mark a deadline within 7 days with 🔥 and one that has already passed with ⚠, on the same 7-day threshold `/rank` Step 3 uses so the two commands never disagree. A passed deadline on a `drafted` row is the failure this column exists to catch - documents written, never sent, and now unsendable - so name it in one line under the table rather than leaving the user to compare dates. This changes nothing about the follow-up offer: a drafted row is still never chased, because nobody is late replying to something that was never sent.

**Moving a row off `drafted`:** rows written by `/apply` Step 6b carry the date the documents were drafted, not the date they were sent. Whenever this step advances such a row to any other status - `applied`, or straight to `interview` or `rejected` when the user reports an outcome for something they submitted without recording it - overwrite its `date` column with the actual submission date. The `date` column is read as "applied on" by `/notion-sync` and drives `/html-report`'s year/season grouping and this command's own days-quiet count, so leaving the draft date in place would misreport the application.

- **Application deadlines are written down at every moment the framework provably holds them**
|
||||
(#319). `/scrape` fetched the deadline and rendered it in a table, `/rank` turned it into the 🔥
|
||||
urgency marker and the expiry check, and nothing stored it - so the marker fired exactly once,
|
||||
every later run had to re-fetch a posting that might have expired to recover the date, and a
|
||||
`drafted` application (whose only applicable clock is its deadline) had no time-based signal at
|
||||
all. `seen_jobs.json` entries now carry a `deadline` (base field, written on first sight,
|
||||
refreshed by `/rank` Step 4, `null` vs missing distinguished and never guessed); `/rank` Step 3
|
||||
re-derives urgency from the stored value with no re-fetch and sweeps already-ranked entries past
|
||||
their deadline into `expired`; the tracker gains a fourteenth `deadline` column appended last,
|
||||
with a header-line-only migration for existing trackers; `/apply` Step 0 extracts the deadline
|
||||
and Step 6b writes it (including the `/scrape` path via the assistant SKILL.md); `/outcome`
|
||||
surfaces it on open rows and flags near/passed deadlines on `drafted` rows without changing the
|
||||
no-follow-up rule; and the row-rewriting paths (`/outcome` Step 4, `/gmail-sync` Step 7a) now
|
||||
preserve every unparsed field so the new column survives the first status update. `/notion-sync`
|
||||
names the tracker as the Deadline source (tracker wins), `/upskill`'s column list stays true, and
|
||||
`job-application-assistant/SKILL.md` bumps `framework_version` 1.3.2 → 1.3.3. Pinned by
|
||||
`tests/test_rank_command.py`, `tests/test_apply_records_application.py`, and

- **`convert_salary_excel.py` no longer misreads whole-thousands cells from a Danish-locale

`float()` and silently written as `60.0`, a 1000x-wrong salary in `salary_data.json` that
