What it does
Ats Detector is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Work out which applicant tracking system a job uses from its application link, and give the formatting rules that system parses safely. Use when asked which ATS does this company use, will my CV get through the ATS, is my CV ATS friendly, or how should I format for Workday, Greenhouse, Lever or Taleo. Produces the detected system with the evidence, a parsing-safe formatting checklist, the file type to upload, and a check of a supplied CV against the rules.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/ats_detect.py`).
It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Recruiting and HR. It works with Workday. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- Asked which ATS does this company use
- Will my CV get through the ATS
- Is my CV ATS friendly
- How should I format for Workday
Example prompts
- “/ats-detector”
Requirements
- Python 3
Workflow steps
8 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- One column. No sidebars.
- No tables, text boxes, headers or footers for content. Contact details go in the body.
- Standard headings: Summary, Experience, Education, Skills (or the local equivalents).
- Dates in one consistent format, on the same line as each role.
- Real text, not images of text. No icons standing in for words.
- Common fonts. No ligatures or decorative characters in names and headings.
- File type: .docx is the safest; text-based PDF is accepted by most modern systems. Never a scanned PDF.
- File name: Firstname-Lastname-CV.docx.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
python3
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
jobs.lever.co
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Ats Detector loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 118 tokens; SKILL.md has 608 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

ATS Detector
An applicant tracking system reads the CV before a person does. Each one parses differently, and the cheapest way to fail is a layout the parser scrambles: two columns, a table, a header image, contact details in a text box. This skill identifies the system from the application link and checks the CV against what that system needs.
Part of the pm-cv bundle. Used by company-tailored-cv.
What This Skill Produces
- The detected system, with the evidence (the address pattern) and a confidence level
- A formatting checklist for that system
- The file type to upload
- A CV check: each rule marked pass or fail against a supplied CV, with the fix
Required Inputs
Ask for these if not provided:
- The application link (the page where the "Apply" button leads, not the company homepage)
- The CV, if the person wants it checked
Framework: Detection by Address
| Address contains | System |
|---|---|
myworkdayjobs.com, wd1., wd3., wd5. | Workday |
boards.greenhouse.io, job-boards.greenhouse.io, gh_jid= | Greenhouse |
jobs.lever.co | Lever |
jobs.ashbyhq.com | Ashby |
smartrecruiters.com | SmartRecruiters |
icims.com | iCIMS |

jobvite.com | Jobvite |
breezy.hr | Breezy HR |
moka or mokahr.com | Moka (China) |
zhiye.com (Beisen) | Beisen (China) |
If the link is a company domain with none of these, say the system is unknown and apply the strict rules below. Do not guess a vendor.
Framework: Parsing-Safe Rules (all systems)
- One column. No sidebars.
- No tables, text boxes, headers or footers for content. Contact details go in the body.
- Standard headings: Summary, Experience, Education, Skills (or the local equivalents).
- Dates in one consistent format, on the same line as each role.
- Real text, not images of text. No icons standing in for words.
- Common fonts. No ligatures or decorative characters in names and headings.
- File type:
.docxis the safest; text-based PDF is accepted by most modern systems. Never a scanned PDF. - File name:
Firstname-Lastname-CV.docx.
System notes, where they differ:
- Workday asks the candidate to re-enter or confirm parsed fields. Keep job titles, employers and dates very plain so the autofill is right.
- Taleo and older iCIMS set-ups are the strictest parsers. Prefer
.docx. - Greenhouse, Lever and Ashby generally keep the original file for the human reviewer, so layout quality matters more for the second reader.
These notes describe common behaviour, not a guarantee. Each employer configures its system.

Programmatic Helper
python3 skills/ats-detector/scripts/ats_detect.py "https://jobs.lever.co/acme/123"
python3 skills/ats-detector/scripts/ats_detect.py --json "https://acme.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/careers/job/123"It matches the address against the table above and prints the system and confidence. Standard library only. It does not fetch the page.
Output Format
ATS check: [company], [role]
1. System: [name] · Evidence: [the matching part of the address] · Confidence: high / medium / unknown 2. Rules for this application (checklist) 3. CV check | Rule | Pass / fail | Where | Fix | 4. Upload: [file type and file name]
Quality Checks
- The evidence for the detected system is quoted from the address
- An unknown system is reported as unknown, with the strict rules applied
- Every failed rule has a specific fix
- The file type recommendation is stated
Anti-Patterns
- Guessing the vendor from the company's size or industry. Only the address is evidence.
- Promising a CV will "pass the ATS". Systems rank and filter differently, and humans decide. Say it will parse cleanly.
- Keyword-stuffing advice. Hidden white text and keyword blocks are detected and look worse to the human reader.
- Treating a beautiful two-column design as fine. It may be fine for a human; it is a risk for the parser.
Example Trigger Phrases
- "Which ATS is this job using? https://acme.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/..."
- "Is my CV ATS friendly?"
- "How should I format my CV for Greenhouse?"
- "Will this two-column CV get through Taleo?"
