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).

Custom Templates
This folder holds user-registered LaTeX templates, managed by the /add-template command. The framework works out of the box with its stock templates (moderncv for CVs, cover.cls for cover letters) — this folder only gets content when you register your own.

How it works
/add-templateinterviews you for the template's instructions (compile engine, fonts, style rules, page limit), stores the files here, and runs a mandatory test compile before registering anything.- Activating a template adds a managed block to
05-cv-templates.mdor06-cover-letter-templates.md, which is what/applyreads when drafting — no other wiring needed. /add-template --listshows registered templates;/add-template --use <name>switches;/add-template --use defaultreverts to the stock templates.
Templates are stored with [PLACEHOLDER] tokens instead of personal data, so they are safe to commit and share.
