## What it does

This skill guides coding agents through drafting resume blueprints. It enforces bullet points built on verified outcomes and metrics. Agents cannot invent headcounts, revenue, or dates. Any missing metric gets marked as `NEEDS USER INPUT`.

Work begins inside `content_and_design.md`. The agent designs visual tiers for recruiter scanning. Contacts dominate the top third. Recent roles follow with two to four bullet points. Outdated history older than 10–15 years is cut to fit a one-page budget.

Exporting to PDF requires the core `k2f` skill. Without that companion skill installed, the agent cannot move past the Markdown draft.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add suzheng/k2f --skill k2f-resume -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/k2f-resume/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/k2f-resume/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add suzheng/k2f --skill k2f-resume -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/k2f-resume/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add suzheng/k2f --skill k2f-resume -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/k2f-resume/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**

name: k2f-resume
description: Turn career history, notes, or an existing CV into a tailored, achievement-led resume with clear hierarchy and scannable proof—not a generic duty list or keyword-stuffed template. Use when the user asks for a resume, CV, job application document, or role-targeted career summary (including refresh for a specific job posting). Create resumes with AI-native design and the highest aesthetic standards, powered by the K2F format and engine. Purpose-built for AI agents, K2F lets them focus on semantic content and design intent while automatically handling layout, typography, and formatting complexity.

# K2F Resume — AI-Native Aesthetic Design

## Purpose

Teach agents to blueprint **resumes** in `content_and_design.md` before layout: what to include and cut, how to tier information for recruiter scan, achievement bullets with honest metrics, and aesthetic intent (tone, hierarchy, density)—without inventing roles, dates, or results the user did not supply.

## Built on K2F

This skill produces resumes as `.K2F` packages. Follow the **k2f** skill for authoring: unpack or init a workspace, edit the semantic tree, pack/verify, and export. K2F keeps agents on *meaning* (sections, roles, claims)—not coordinates—while the engine handles layout and typography.

Before you build, install the core skill: `npx skills add suzheng/k2f --skill k2f`.

## When to Use

- Drafting or rebuilding a resume from notes, LinkedIn export, or an outdated CV.
- Tailoring content to a **target role** or job description (emphasis and keywords, not fabrication).
- Career changers, recent grads, or executives who need different section weighting—not cover letters, portfolios, or multi-page bios.

## Workflow

### Step 1. Generate the content_and_design.md

Single blueprint for semantic content and design intent. Use labeled blocks per section (header, summary, each role, education, skills) that the **k2f** skill can map later.

**Sub-steps**

1. **Resume frame** — Target role, seniority, industry, geography, and page budget (typically **one page** until ~10+ years or heavy publication lists; two pages max when justified). Note if user supplied a job description for tailoring.

2. **Input audit** — Inventory dates, employers, titles, projects, metrics, education, certifications, and links. Flag `NEEDS USER INPUT` for gaps; never fabricate revenue, headcount, or tenure.

3. **Section architecture (include / cut)** — Default stack:
   - **Contact** → **Professional summary** (optional) → **Experience** (reverse chronological) → **Education** → **Skills** → (optional) **Certifications / Projects**.
   - Use **recognizable section labels** (e.g., Work Experience, Education, Skills)—not clever nicknames that obscure structure.
   - **Cut** roles older than ~10–15 years unless highly relevant; redundant soft-skill essays; hobbies; full street address; every duty from early careers.
   - **Merge or shorten** thin roles to one line; **expand** only recent roles aligned with the target job (typically **2–4 bullets** each).
