From egg
This skill should be used when the user wants to write a cover letter for a job application. Trigger phrases include "write cover letter", "cover letter for", "draft cover letter", "write a cover letter for this role", or when a user asks for a cover letter after resume tailoring. It reads the notes.md from a prior resume-analyzer run and produces a tailored cover letter.

candidate-context.md.| Candidate Profile | Value |
|---|---|
| Entry-level / student | High -- differentiates from identical CVs |
| Career changer | High -- explains the pivot |
| Experienced (5+ years) | Low -- write only if explicitly requested |
| Referral / networking intro | Medium -- reinforces the warm introduction |
State who you are, the exact role, and a personal connection to the firm. Answer: "Why this specific firm?"
Map top 2-3 experiences directly to JD requirements. Use JD keywords. Lead with accomplishments, quantify impact.
Demonstrate genuine knowledge. Contrast with peers. Name-drop employees met, cite recent deals/initiatives/blog posts. This paragraph is the hardest to write well and easiest to spot when faked.
Restate interest, mention availability, thank the reader. 2-3 sentences.
| Pattern | Fix |
|---|---|
| Em dashes for tone or filler | Use only for structural clarity. Default to commas, periods, semicolons. |
| Rhetorical questions for drama ("The twist?") | State the point directly. |
| Formulaic intensifiers ("It wasn't just X, it was Y") | Write the actual claim without theatrical setup. |
