Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
What it does
Generates a professional, ATS-optimized CV from multiple sources, tailoring to a specific job description and improving language, metrics, and structure. Outputs a paste-ready plain-text version formatted for FlowCV, Canva, Google Docs, or Word, plus an ATS flaw report and a missing-info checklist.
How it works
- Accepts multiple sources (e.g., LinkedIn, GitHub, Portfolio) and merges them into a master profile, deduplicating entries.
- If a source is blocked or missing, prompts for alternatives (e.g., LinkedIn PDF export) and follows hard rules for missing data.
- Extracts data in a defined order from each source (name/headline, contact, About, work experience, education, skills, etc.), preserving dates exactly as written when provided.
- Uses a questionnaire flow, one question at a time, to collect any missing inputs necessary for formatting, seniority, and purpose settings.
- Produces a paste-ready plain-text CV formatted for FlowCV/Canva/Docs/Word, along with:
- a structured Flaw Report with a 0–100 score per item,
- a missing-info checklist,
- a separate plain-text block for cover letters when applicable,
- explicit field-by-field paste map for tool rendering.
When to use it
- When you need to generate an ATS-optimized CV from multiple sources.
- When you want to tailor a CV to a specific Job Description.
- When you want to improve language, metrics, and structure of a draft resume.
- When you need a paste-ready version for FlowCV, Canva, Google Docs, or Word, with an ATS flaw report and improvement suggestions.
What it can touch
- Tools listed: claude-code, codex, cursor.
- It uses these tools to build, refine, and output the final plain-text CV and supporting reports.
Caveats
- Outputs are constrained to the data provided and follow hard rules (e.g., one-question-at-a-time questionnaire, strict non-fabrication of data).
- The final output includes an ATS flaw report with per-item pass/fail scoring and a missing-info checklist.

Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill cv-generator --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
