Prompt file imported from Dharmik7601/TailorTex (.claude/commands/remote-tailor-resume.md). Fill in {{arguments}} before use. Copyright stays with the author.

Allowed file operations: Read any file listed in the steps below. Write ONLY to output/$COMPANY_Resume.tex and C:\Users\Dharmik\Desktop\Resumes\. Do not create any other files.

Generate a tailored LaTeX resume from an inline job description.

Follow these steps exactly:

1. Parse {{arguments}} by splitting on the first occurrence of |||. The text before ||| (trimmed) is the COMPANY_NAME. The text after ||| (trimmed) is the JOB_DESCRIPTION. If ||| is not found, stop and print: "Error: arguments must be in the format: CompanyName ||| job description text"

2. Read resumes/master_resume.tex — split the content at \begin{document}. Store the preamble (everything before and including \begin{document}) and the body separately. Do not modify the preamble under any circumstance.

3. Read prompts/system_prompt.txt, prompts/user_constraints.txt (if non-empty), and prompts/additional_projects.txt (if non-empty) — these are the generation rules, personal constraints, and project bank respectively. Apply all of them when generating the resume body.

4. Generate the tailored resume body by applying all rules from step 3 to the master resume body from step 2, targeting the JOB_DESCRIPTION from step 1. The system_prompt formatting_constraints define exact section and bullet counts that guarantee a one-page fit — follow them precisely and the output will fit one page without any post-generation adjustment.

5. Reassemble the full .tex file by prepending the original preamble from step 2 to the generated body. Write the complete file to output/$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.tex.

6. Compile using the local script: python local/compile.py --tex output/$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.tex --prefix $COMPANY_NAME --output output --type resume

   If the script exits with a non-zero return code AND no PDF was produced at output/$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.pdf:

   • Read output/$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.tex and scan for common LaTeX errors:
     • Unescaped special characters: & → \&, % → \%, $ → \$, # → \#
     • Unescaped underscores outside math mode: _ → \_
     • Mismatched braces { / }
   • Apply all detected fixes to output/$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.tex
   • Retry the compile command once: python local/compile.py --tex output/$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.tex --prefix $COMPANY_NAME --output output --type resume
   • If it fails again, stop and print the exact error. Do not retry more than once.

   If the script exits with a non-zero return code BUT the PDF exists at output/$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.pdf, treat it as a warnings-only compile and continue — do not retry.

7. Clean up any auxiliary files not already removed by compile.py: if exist output\$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.aux del output\$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.aux if exist output\$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.log del output\$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.log if exist output\$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.out del output\$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.out

8. Confirm output/$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.pdf exists. If it does not exist at this point, stop and print: "Compilation failed — PDF not found at output/$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.pdf"

9. Copy both output files to the desktop folder: copy output\$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.tex "G:\Other computers\My Laptop\Documents\Resume\Custom\Remote Generated\$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.tex" copy output\$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.pdf "G:\Other computers\My Laptop\Documents\Resume\Custom\Remote Generated\$COMPANY_NAME_Resume.pdf"
