# Edit a Resume or Cover Letter
## Startup
1. Read `shared_ops.md` and `resume_builder/canonical/claims.json` completely.
2. Run the system validator.
3. Read the session, real JD, target `.tex`, critique/feedback, selected profile rules and relevant experience files.
4. Check `historical_outputs.json`. A package marked unsafe must be regenerated from canonical sources rather than lightly polished.
5. If the package was already submitted, preserve it as history. Create a clearly named new version only when the user requests a reusable corrected document.
## Diagnose
Classify requested changes as:
- Truth/provenance correction.
- Fit/framing correction.
- Information hierarchy or readability.
- Content selection.
- Mechanical/LaTeX.
- Blocked because evidence is absent.
Do not treat whitespace, equal bullet lengths or an exact character target as defects. Do not add filler. A critique cannot authorize an unsupported claim.
Present a concise edit plan and wait for explicit confirmation unless the user already approved specific edits.
## Execute
- Source every work claim from canonical IDs and experience files.
- Keep employer/title/date hierarchy conventional.
- Preserve natural bullet lengths and verified ownership scope.
- Remove unsupported skills rather than replacing them with synonyms.
- Update a cover letter only when its session decision is YES or the user explicitly requests it.
- If edits reveal a hard fit gate, update the Evidence Fit classification; writing improvements cannot remove the gate.
## Verify
Run the validator on every edited document, compile, inspect the PDF, and verify extracted text order. Compare before/after for:
- validator failures;
- page count;
- employer/title/date visibility;
- bullet count and relevance;
- duplicated sections;
- readability at normal size.
Update the session Edit History, Document Quality, status and next action. Mark the critique stale after material edits. Present results and wait for approval.
