What it does

Resume To Job Screen is an agent skill from mrmps/classifier-dev. Score resumes against a job description one explicit competency at a time, with a keyless classification API, ordered labels (no evidence, mentions, demonstrated, strong) and an expected value taken from the returned score distribution, producing a weighted ranked shortlist with every number shown. Use on "screen these CVs", "rank these applicants against the JD", "who is worth an interview", "build a shortlist". A reading aid only: it never decides, and it scores evidence in the text, never who the candidate is.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Recruiting and HR. The repository describes itself as: Zero-shot text classification over plain HTTP — no API key, no account. One Cloudflare Worker, a CLI, and an MCP server. https://classifier.dev. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Recruiting and HR

Example prompts

  • “screen these CVs”
  • “rank these applicants against the JD”
  • “who is worth an interview”
  • “/resume-to-job-screen”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. write competencies from the JD, not a summary of it
  2. one call per competency, ordered labels
  3. score the expected value, not the winning label
  4. the shortlist, with the working shown

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 629df75. 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

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • curl

    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:

    • classifier.dev

    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

Resume To Job Screen loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 135 tokens; SKILL.md has 677 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~135
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Screen resumes against a job description, one competency at a time

classifier.dev picks one of your labels for a text and returns the whole score distribution with it. No key. That gives you a defensible first pass: each competency scored on its own, every number visible, the ranking reproducible. It writes nothing and decides nothing.

What this must not be used for

  • Never classify or infer a protected characteristic: age, sex, race, religion, disability, pregnancy, nationality, marital status, or a proxy for one such as graduation year, name, photo, or a gap in employment. Do not put such a label in labels or a hint in instructions.
  • Never auto-reject. The output ranks and shows evidence; a person reads every resume before anyone is turned down, and decides.
  • Do not use it where local law regulates automated decisions in hiring (the EU AI Act treats hiring as high risk; New York City Local Law 144 requires a bias audit and notice). Confirm what applies before it touches a real applicant.
  • Do not score "culture fit", "communication skills" or "attitude" from a resume. The text does not carry them, so the answer is noise with a number.

Strip names, addresses, dates of birth, photos and school names from the text before sending. You are scoring evidence of work, and nothing else improves the answer.

Step 1 — write competencies from the JD, not a summary of it

Pull three to six competencies out of the JD that a resume could actually show. Each needs a sentence, not a keyword: Python services running in production, not notebooks or scripts beats Python. Attach a weight to each; they sum to 1.

Step 2 — one call per competency, ordered labels

The same four labels for every competency, in order, with a leading digit so the scores map is easy to turn into a number:

curl -s https://classifier.dev/v1/classify \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -d '{
  "labels": ["0 no evidence in the resume",
             "1 mentions the area without detail",
             "2 did this on the job",
             "3 owned or led this, with scale or outcomes"],
  "instructions": "Score only this competency: designing and operating distributed systems, queues, sharding, on-call. Judge evidence in the resume text, never the person.",
  "inputs": ["Senior engineer, 6 years. Python and Go services on AWS, built a sharded job queue handling 3M jobs a day, on-call rotation owner.",
             "Backend developer, 4 years. Django and Flask internal tools, some Celery, familiar with Kubernetes."]
}'

Real output, with the expected value computed from scores:

label 3  confidence 1.00  scores {0:0.00, 1:0.00, 2:0.00, 3:1.00}  EV 3.00
label 1  confidence 0.56  scores {0:0.32, 1:0.67, 2:0.01, 3:0.00}  EV 0.69

One call per competency, up to 1,000 resumes each. Keep the requests identical apart from instructions: same labels, same order, or the numbers stop comparing.

Step 3 — score the expected value, not the winning label

python
def ev(result):          # the mean of the distribution, 0.00 to 3.00
    return sum(int(label[0]) * s for label, s in result["scores"].items())

total = sum(weight[c] * ev(per_competency[c][i]) for c in competencies)

The argmax label throws away the distribution. The second candidate above sits between 0 and 1 at 0.56 confidence: as a label that is a coin flip, as an expected value, 0.69, a stable "barely anything here". Take the EV and the near-ties stop mattering.

Step 4 — the shortlist, with the working shown

Five real resumes, three competencies weighted 0.40 production Python, 0.35 distributed systems, 0.25 leading engineers. Three calls, 15 classifications:

cand  python  distrib  leading  total
A     3.00    2.99     2.72     2.93
E     2.94    2.99     2.33     2.80
C     0.00    0.74     2.99     1.01
B     1.58    0.52     0.04     0.82
D     0.25    0.32     0.00     0.21

C is the row that proves the method: an engineering manager, three years out of code, who would have ranked well on any "senior, 11 years" keyword filter and ranks third here because the Python column is 0.00. Hand the table to the hiring manager with the per-competency numbers, not the total alone.

The confidence gate

Per competency, per candidate:

  • 0.9 and above — take the score into the ranking.
  • 0.5 to 0.9 — take it, and mark the cell. The EV is usually still right; the label is what is uncertain.
  • Under 0.5 — do not let that cell move the ranking. A person reads that section of the resume and scores it, or you drop the competency as unscorable from a resume.

Anyone near the cut line is read by a person anyway. The ranking orders the reading; it does not replace it.

Pitfalls

  • A resume is a claim. The model scores what is written, so someone who writes well outscores someone who did more and wrote less. That is exactly why this ranks a reading order rather than deciding.
  • Keep the raw output. Save every request and response. If a candidate asks why they were not progressed you need the numbers, and under some hiring laws you must be able to produce them.
  • Re-run the whole batch when you change a label. Scores from different label sets are not comparable, and a mixed table is worse than no table.
  • Limits per IP: 3,000 classifications a minute, 20,000 a day. A 429 carries Retry-After.
