The HTML template rendered by Playwright into PDF. Uses placeholder tokens ({{NAME}}, {{SUMMARY_TEXT}}, {{EXPERIENCE}}, etc.) that the PDF pipeline fills at generation time.
Design: Space Grotesk headings + DM Sans body, single-column ATS-safe layout, self-hosted fonts from fonts/.
Customization: Edit this file to change colors, spacing, or section order. The placeholder tokens are documented in batch/batch-prompt.md under "Template placeholders."
Pre-configured portal scanner with 45+ tracked companies and search queries. Contains title filters, company career page URLs, Greenhouse API endpoints, and WebSearch queries.
To activate: Copy to project root as portals.yml and customize title_filter.positive keywords for your target roles. Add or remove companies as needed.
Defines the 8 canonical application states (Evaluated, Applied, Responded, Interview, Offer, Rejected, Discarded, SKIP) with aliases for common variants. All pipeline scripts validate statuses against this file.
Do not rename states -- the dashboard and all scripts depend on these exact IDs. You can add aliases if you encounter new variants that should map to an existing state.
