career-ops

career-ops is an open-source AI job search system that runs on agent harnesses like Claude Code. Public discussion is driven mainly by promotional posts and GitHub star growth, with few independent hands-on reviews or in-depth tutorials. It is not an auto-submission mass-apply bot; rather, it's a decision-assist and resume-customization tool that helps you filter high-fit positions from large listings and then manually submit tailored applications. In practice, you deploy and configure Claude Code (or a compatible agent) and an API key. Paste a job link, and the system crawls the description, scores the match on an A–F scale across dimensions like skill fit, and generates an ATS-optimized PDF resume alongside salary references and STAR interview materials. It includes 14 skill modes, a Go dashboard, and batch processing, and can connect to platforms like LinkedIn and Boss Zhipin in supported regions, cutting down repetitive document editing. Entry barriers: deployment requires programming skills; running the system incurs usage costs from API calls (Claude API, etc.) — no fixed pricing, costs vary with usage.
