The job search that runs on your machine.

What's new

Sixty-nine tailored applications, twenty first interviews, and one signed contract later, I started as an AI engineer in June 2026.

Key details

  • AI job application framework built on Claude Code: evaluate postings, tailor CVs, write cover letters, prep interviews.
  • An AI-powered job application framework built on Claude Code.
  • Fork it, fill in your profile, and let Claude evaluate job postings, tailor your CV, write cover letters, and prepare you for interviews.
  • Note: This is an independent open-source project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or maintained by Anthropic.

Results & evidence

  • When my position was cut in late 2025, I built this framework to run my own job search - the same /scrape, /apply, and /interview workflow in this repo, used weekly, on my own career.
  • Sixty-nine tailored applications, twenty first interviews, and one signed contract later, I started as an AI engineer in June 2026.

Limitations / unknowns

  • Generalization outside curated tasks is still unclear.

Next-step validation checks

  • Reproduce one claim with a public baseline and fixed evaluation settings.
  • Check robustness on out-of-distribution or long-context cases.
  • Track whether independent teams report matching results.

arXiv:2609.20130v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent memory-augmented repository-level program repair methods reuse historical repair experiences to improve LLM-based issue resolution.

Key details

  • However, our analysis reveals three limitations in existing repository-level memory retrieval.
  • First, episodic memory is highly imbalanced across repositories, leaving low-resource repositories with little effective support.
  • Second, more memory does not monotonically lead to higher repair success, suggesting that relevance, quality, and redundancy matter more than raw memory volume.
  • Third, memory accumulation is phase-misaligned: repositories may contain many reproduction experiences but few patch or refinement experiences.

ERP, exports, spreadsheets, and documents each tell a partial story; without a shared layer of meaning, humans argue over definitions and agents invent new ones every session.

Key details

  • ERP, exports, spreadsheets, and documents each tell a partial story; without a shared layer of meaning, humans argue over definitions and agents invent new ones every session.
  • Anchor does not move data or replace systems.
  • It builds the ontology layer above them — the same primitive enterprise platforms treat as foundational: map sources to entities, wire relations, capture business definitions, and govern what is true with provenance and confidence.
  • That layer is institutional memory when it is written down, versioned, and shared.

Results & evidence

  • No hard numbers surfaced in the source text; treat claims as directional until benchmarks appear.

Limitations / unknowns

  • Humans confirm what the machine is unsure about through risk-ranked review; agents query what has been confirmed through MCP.

  • This kind of hyper-growth is becoming the standard operating procedure for the current agentic AI market.

What's new

arXiv:2609.20541v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models can report a numerical confidence together with generated content, but it is unclear whether this report is more than calibrated rhetoric.

Key details

  • We analyze three training-free signals: confidence verbalized with the answer, post-hoc $P(\mathrm{True})$, and agreement with three additional generations on the same 100 TriviaQA questions for two model families.
  • Direct verbalization is a surprisingly strong baseline: after auditing benchmark errors, it reaches AUROC 0.956 and 0.937 for correctness prediction.
  • Three-sample agreement is substantially weaker (0.765 and 0.790), and a fixed interpolation with verbalized confidence has no statistically reliable benefit.
  • Four of nine errors from one model and two of eight from the other receive unanimous sample support, showing that self-consistency can amplify shared misconceptions.
