Step 0 — Init#

Read guides/input-collection-guide.md Section 1 and follow its procedure to set up ~/.career-spotlight/.

Step 1 — Analyze#

Read guides/input-collection-guide.md Sections 2-8 for the full procedure. Summary:

1. Collect sources from the user (local paths, URLs, or .docx files).
2. Validate and expand sources (auto-detect document collections in directories).
3. Ask the user to set project priorities ( highlight or supporting).
4. Check existing analyses for staleness (via git hash, file mtime, or URL age).
5. Run new analyses per guides/project-analysis-guide.md, write to ~/.career-spotlight/analyses/.

Step 2 — Position#

1. Read guides/domain-positioning-guide.md and follow Sections 2-4.
2. Recommend one expert framing with a distinctiveness thesis. Keep alternatives as wrappers.
3. Ask the user to confirm the framing before proceeding.

Step 3 — Synthesize#

1. Read all analyses from ~/.career-spotlight/analyses/.
2. Read guides/narrative-synthesis-guide.md and follow its methodology.
3. Archive any existing report.md to ~/.career-spotlight/history/report-YYYY-MM-DDTHH-MM-SS.md.
4. Write the new report to ~/.career-spotlight/report.md using templates/aggregated-report.md.

Step 4 — Write Copy#

1. Read ~/.career-spotlight/report.md.

2. Read guides/copywriting-guide.md and follow its methodology.

3. Archive any existing files in ~/.career-spotlight/copies/ to history/ with timestamp suffix.

4. Write four files to ~/.career-spotlight/copies/ using templates/copywriting-variants.md:

   • resume-bullets.md
   • elevator-pitch.md
   • linkedin-summary.md
   • casual-intro.md

Step 5 — Review#

Present a summary: positioning statement, theme line count, top 3 hidden capabilities.

Then offer:

1. Add more projects → Step 1
2. Change domain direction → Step 2
3. Adjust narrative emphasis → Step 3
4. Regenerate copy variants → Step 4
5. Accept and finish — remind the user their files are at ~/.career-spotlight/
