+# cv
+
+## Purpose
+A multi-variant LaTeX résumé for Prad Nukala. Each variant is a self-contained `.tex` file under `src/`, targeting a different role (React Native, blockchain, cryptography, founding engineer). The raw career material lives as structured YAML in `docs/` and is hand-curated into the templates — nothing auto-generates the `.tex` from the YAML. Builds with **pdflatex** via a single glob-driven `Makefile`.
+
+## Key Files
+| File | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `Makefile` | Glob-driven build: every `src/*.tex` → `dist/*.pdf`. No per-variant edits needed. |
+| `CLAUDE.md` | Guidance for Claude Code (build commands, architecture, one-page constraint). |
+| `README.md` | Upstream Deedy-Resume README — historical, not a description of this repo. |
+| `source.tex` | The original single-variant file the `src/` templates were derived from. Not built by the Makefile (which only globs `src/`). |
+| `.gitignore` / `LICENSE` | Standard repo files. |
+
+## Subdirectories
+| Directory | Purpose |
+|-----------|---------|
+| `src/` | Role-specific résumé templates, one `.tex` per variant (see `src/AGENTS.md`). |
+| `docs/` | Structured YAML source material — experience, projects, skills (see `docs/AGENTS.md`). |
+| `dist/` | Build output (git-ignored). Created by `make`. |
+
+## For AI Agents
+
+### Working In This Directory
+- **pdflatex, not XeLaTeX.** Templates use `inputenc`/`fontenc` with default Computer Modern — no fontspec, no bundled fonts, no bibtex.
+- The Makefile auto-discovers variants. Adding `src/<name>.tex` gives you `make <name>`, `make preview V=<name>`, `make watch V=<name>` for free — no Makefile edit.
+- **One-page constraint:** every variant must stay a single page. `paracol` silently overflows to page 2 if a column runs long.
+
+### Testing Requirements
+After any `.tex` change, rebuild and confirm page count:
+```bash
+make distclean && make <variant>
+pdfinfo dist/<variant>.pdf | grep Pages   # must read: Pages: 1
+```
+
+### Common Patterns
+- Variants share an identical preamble and the role-independent blocks (Contact, Honors, Organizations, Education). Title, skill groups, experience bullets, and project ordering are what differ per role.
+- Content is curated from `docs/` YAML by hand; keep the two in sync when editing either.
+
+## Dependencies
+
+### External
+- TeX Live (`pdflatex`, `latexmk`) — build toolchain.
+- `pdfinfo` (poppler-utils) — page-count verification.

+
+# src
+
+## Purpose
+One `.tex` file per résumé variant. Each is a complete, standalone pdflatex document — there is no shared `.cls` or `\input` include. The Makefile globs this directory, so the filename (sans `.tex`) is the build target name.
+
+## Key Files
+| File | Description |
+|------|-------------|
+| `react-native.tex` | Senior React Native Engineer — leads with Beam and the mobile stack. |
+| `blockchain.tex` | Senior Blockchain & Protocol Engineer — Cosmos L1, gasless onboarding, token economics, IBC/EVM. |
+| `cryptography.tex` | Applied Cryptography & Security Engineer — ZKP/Bulletproofs, MPC/DKG, constant-time EC arithmetic. |
+| `founding-engineer.tex` | Founding Engineer & Full-Stack Builder — Sonr + Britetwist (1M+ downloads), fundraising, breadth. |
+
+## For AI Agents
+
+### Working In This Directory
+- **Layout is a `paracol` two-column** split by `\columnratio{0.3}` (left 30% / right 70%), divided with `\switchcolumn`.
+  - Left column: Contact → Skills (Languages / Frameworks / Methodology groups) → Honors → Organizations.
+  - Right column: Experience → Projects → Education.
+- The preamble and the role-independent blocks (Contact, Honors, Organizations, Education) are **identical across all four files**. When changing one of those, change all four or they drift.
+- What varies per variant: the `{\large ...}` title, the skill-group contents, the experience bullets, and which projects appear and in what order.
+- Escape literals: `\&`, `\$`, `\%`. Use `` ``...'' `` for quotes (not `"`).
+
+### Testing Requirements
+```bash
+make distclean && make <name>            # e.g. make blockchain
+pdfinfo dist/<name>.pdf | grep Pages     # must be 1
+```
+Trim before adding — a column that grows past the page silently spills to page 2.
+
+### Common Patterns
+- Section header = `{\bfseries Title}\\[2pt]` then `\rule{\linewidth}{0.4pt}\\[4pt]`.
+- Bullet lists use `\begin{itemize}[leftmargin=*, nosep, topsep=2pt]` with each `\item \small{...}` to stay tight.
+- Dated entries use `\textbf{Role} \hfill \textit{2022 -- Present}`.
+
+## Dependencies
+
+### Internal
+- Content is curated by hand from `../docs/` YAML (experience, projects, skills, recognition).
+
+### External
+- pdflatex packages: `geometry`, `enumitem`, `paracol`, `hyperref`.
