CVs from /apply were named cv/main_<company>.tex, so a second role at the same company overwrote the first (cover letters already carried the role). Aligns CV naming to main_<company>_<role>.tex across apply, add-template, the CV template guide, CLAUDE.md, and SETUP.md; /outcome and /interview fallbacks glob main_<company>*.tex to match both legacy and new names. framework_version bumped on both touched framework files.
The freehire-search CLI is typechecked in CI but was missing from install
instructions, the file tree, and the country-agnostic portal overview.

Document a user-level TinyTeX path for minimal LaTeX installs, list the template packages needed by the stock CV and cover-letter templates, and add local smoke-test commands for lualatex/xelatex.
An ATS reads the compiled PDF's embedded text layer, not the rendered page,
and LaTeX can silently produce PDFs whose text extracts as garbage: icon
glyphs where contact details should be, (cid:*) markers from fonts without
Unicode mappings, interleaved lines from multi-column layouts. This matters
more now that /add-template lets users bring arbitrary templates. The
existing Step 5 loop verifies what a human sees; this adds verification of
what a parser sees.
New Step 5d in /apply (CV only - cover letters rarely go through keyword
screening; cleanup renumbered to 5e):
- Extract the CV PDF's text layer with pdftotext -layout. pdftotext
(poppler) is an optional dependency: if missing, the mechanical check is
skipped with a warning and keyword coverage falls back to the visual PDF
read - the same graceful-skip pattern as salary_lookup.py
- Parseability checks verified against a real extraction of the stock
template: email/phone must survive as literal text (fontawesome icons
extract as harmless glyph-name noise like MOBILE-ALT/Envelope, but a
contact detail carried only by an icon or hyperlink is invisible to ATS),
no (cid:*) or replacement-character garbage, reading order matching
visual order, dates present
- Keyword coverage reuses the required/preferred list from Step 1, matched
in the posting's language, reported as covered / synonym-only /
missing-have-it / missing-gap. Honesty rule enforced: keywords the
profile genuinely supports get added to experience bullets; genuine gaps
stay visible, never stuffed
Integration: CLAUDE.md verification checklist section, ATS Parseability
guidance in 05-cv-templates.md, narrow Bash(pdftotext:*) entry in the
pre-approved permissions (keeping with the tightened scope from #27),
cv/*.txt gitignored (extraction is personal data; also deleted by the
step itself), and optional-dependency docs in README and SETUP.
The README has always invited users outside Denmark to build equivalents of
the four Danish portal CLI skills, but doing so meant reverse-engineering
.agents/skills/*/cli/ by hand. /add-portal turns that invitation into a
guided workflow:
- Interviews the user for the portal URL, skill name, market/language
(trigger phrases in the local language, like the Danish skills), and a
realistic test query
- Investigates the portal before writing code: search-URL pattern, result
structure (JSON API preferred over HTML), detail-page pattern, robots.txt
and access rules. Auth-walled portals are declined; portals with
restrictive terms get a prominent personal-use-only warning in the
generated SKILL.md (same as linkedin-search)
- Scaffolds from the canonical structure with linkedin-search as the
zero-dependency reference, enforcing the shared portal-skill contract:
search/detail commands, common flags, {meta, results} JSON shape, stderr
JSON errors, backoff on 429/5xx, chunked parsing
- Mandatory live test-run (search + detail + test suite) before registering
- Optionally wires the portal into /scrape via search-queries.md
The generator is country-agnostic; its output is market-specific and stays
in the user's fork, matching the repo policy that upstream remains a
universal template.
Docs: README (commands list, file structure, Job search tools section) and
SETUP.md (CLI install section pointer).
Users could already swap the stock moderncv/cover.cls templates, but only by
hand-editing the guidance in 05-cv-templates.md and 06-cover-letter-templates.md.
/add-template automates that:
- Interviews the user for the template's instructions: compile engine, fonts
(bundled files or system), style rules to preserve, and hard page limit
- Stores the template profile-agnostic ([PLACEHOLDER] tokens) under templates/
with a TEMPLATE.md manifest, so templates are safe to commit and share
- Runs a mandatory test compile with dummy data before registering anything
- Activates via a single managed block in 05/06, which /apply already reads,
so no changes to the /apply workflow are needed; --use default is a clean
revert to the stock templates
- --list and --use <name> manage multiple registered templates
Docs: README (commands list, file structure, LaTeX templates section) and
SETUP.md (compile section pointer).
Follow-up to #20: the linkedin-search CLI landed without being added to
the bun install instructions. Included in both lists with a note that
the install is optional (zero runtime dependencies, dev types only).
Also updated the README file tree and Bun prerequisite wording to
reflect that the toolset is no longer Denmark-only.

* fix: move scoped permissions to settings.json, drop curl, untrack settings.local.json
Addresses #23:
- Remove pre-approved Bash(curl:*) - no agent workflow uses curl, and a
toolkit that routinely feeds untrusted job postings to the model should
not ship a pre-approved exfiltration-capable command
- Move shared permissions to .claude/settings.json (committed by
convention) and scope them tighter: Bash(bun run:*) for the job portal
CLIs, Bash(python/python3 salary_lookup.py:*) for salary lookups
- Untrack .claude/settings.local.json - it was committed despite being
listed in .gitignore; the file stays local for personal overrides

Two stragglers in SETUP.md still recommended pdflatex even though the
README, CLAUDE.md, and 05-cv-templates.md all correctly say lualatex.
The compile snippet in section 7 used pdflatex, and the troubleshooting
section described the CV compile as "standard LaTeX." Both updated to
match the rest of the documentation.

Updates README.md and SETUP.md to reflect the new /apply workflow
additions shipped in the previous commit:
- Bumps the /apply step list from 6 to 7, adding "Compile and inspect"
between Revise and Present
- Adds a "What makes this workflow different" subsection highlighting the
PDF verification loop, relevance-weighted CV cutting, drafter-reviewer
separation, and token-efficient dispatching
- Updates prerequisites note to call out lualatex (CV) and xelatex (cover
letter) explicitly, with the reason each engine is required
- Updates SETUP.md's LaTeX section to match (pdflatex -> lualatex for the
CV, with the MiKTeX fontawesome5 caveat)
