What it does
Once installed, the agent turns your work history, notes or an existing draft into a complete, readable resume with clear sections, reverse-chronological experience and bullet points that start with action verbs. It asks only for missing facts that change the draft, keeps unverified details as questions rather than guessing, and refuses to invent or inflate claims, offering truthful alternatives instead. It also writes standalone headlines and summaries when that is all you need.
Great for
- Job seekers who have experience notes or an old resume but no specific job posting yet
- Students or career changers who want help organising education, projects and transferable experience
- People who want a clear list of open questions and material edits alongside the draft
Skip it if
- Tailoring a resume to one specific job posting, where the sibling resume-tailor skill is the better fit (the skill itself points there)
- Producing Reactive Resume JSON or PDF files, which needs resume-builder; this skill only returns text, and its own checks do not confirm page count or layout
- Anyone wanting the agent to publish, submit or upload a resume on their behalf without reviewing the text first
Try asking
- “Write a complete resume for a junior data analyst role from these notes about my internship and coursework.”
- “Rewrite my existing resume draft so the bullet points lead with actions and results, using only the facts I give you.”
- “Draft a professional headline and a three-sentence summary for my profile.”
- “Turn my freelance projects and volunteer work into resume entries with their real labels and dates.”

Ask for the task
No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.
Get better results
- Paste all your real roles, dates, credentials and results, including rough numbers marked as estimates, so the draft needs fewer questions.
- Check every title, date and figure in the output against your records before submitting, since the skill cannot verify them for you.
- Export the final text yourself and check page count and formatting, because the skill only checks the text it writes.
