Test report

Verdict: Tested · Works
Score: 9.6/10
Tested: Jul 15, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · 7d7df02

Rewrote a generic customer-support-manager resume section two ways: a baseline pass only swapped a few verbs and left a soft-skills dump in place, while the skill-guided pass restructured every bullet with the XYZ formula, front-loaded the target JD's keywords, deleted the soft-skills section per its explicit rule, and -- notably -- used bracketed placeholders instead of fabricating metrics it didn't have.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

What Resume Writing does

A citation-backed rulebook for writing and rewriting resume bullets: the XYZ scaffold, quantification with denominators, ATS-tested action-verb vs. buzzword pass rates, keyword front-loading for a target JD, bullet-length and structure rules, and gendered-language guidance. Triggers when writing, rewriting, or improving resume bullets, sections, or any resume text.
