I built a local-first job-hunt system for Claude Cowork to use for myself - finds roles, tailors your resume, never auto-applies. Sharing.
For the first time in many years I found myself needing to find a new job. I was using Claude Cowork to help me with aspects of the routine - searching jobs boards, tailoring resume/cover letters, etc, then I asked it to build a Kanban style board I could use to help me keep track of all the things.
Then I decided to turn it into a plugin and share, in case anyone else might find it useful.
There may already be other better solutions out there, not going to pretend like this is the best, and you may find issues, but I'm sharing nonetheless.
The one hard rule: it never applies for you. No auto-submitting, no blasting your resume out. It makes you faster and more thorough, but you stay the one who clicks submit.
Free, MIT-licensed, no accounts, no cloud. Feedback and PRs welcome — the automations are plain-English files, so you can tweak them without writing code.

If you use it and find it useful I'd love to hear from you. Hell, even if you use it and hate it, let me know so I can try and make it better.
And if you'd like to add anything to making it better, I've outlined how to contribute in the repo.
