# eeprep-resume

<!-- vale Eeprep.SentenceCase = YES -->

A skill for Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other coding agents that teaches the agent how to write, review, and tailor a one-page engineering resume to the rules on [eeprep.com](https://eeprep.com), without inventing a single fact.

## Install

Claude Code reads skills from `.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md` in a project, or from `~/.claude/skills/` for every project. Copy this folder there:

```bash
dest="$HOME/.claude/skills/eeprep-resume"
base=https://eeprep.com/skills/eeprep-resume
mkdir -p "$dest/references"
curl -fsSL "$base/SKILL.md" -o "$dest/SKILL.md"
for f in inventory rules bullets tailoring checklist humanize resume-generator; do
  curl -fsSL "$base/references/$f.md" -o "$dest/references/$f.md"
done
```

Then say "use the eeprep-resume skill" or ask for a resume. The skill's description tells the agent when to load it.

Cursor and other agents that read a rules file: paste `SKILL.md` into `.cursor/rules/eeprep-resume.mdc` or `AGENTS.md`, and keep the `references/` folder next to it so the agent can open the files it names.
