An agent can work here, but it will waste turns finding its footing.

Fix these first

01
Test command is discoverable
Add a `test` script or a `test` target that runs the whole suite with no arguments. The convention is the interface — an agent tries `npm test` and `make test` before it tries reading your CI config.
02
Deterministic install
Commit the lockfile your package manager generates. Without it, an agent's install and your install are different builds, and 'works on my machine' becomes unfalsifiable.
03
Discoverable commands
Declare the handful of commands that matter in package.json scripts, a Makefile, or a justfile. Naming them turns guesswork into a lookup.

The full marking

Every deduction below names the file or setting it came from.

Instructions 21/27 A-

Whether the repo tells an agent how to behave before it starts guessing.

Agent instruction file 12/12
AGENTS.md is present, which is the format the most tools read.
Also found: CLAUDE.md
Instruction quality 6/12
Real instructions, with gaps.
Worth fixing: it never states a build, test, or run command; has no code blocks.
1,585 characters, a workable length
uses headings, so an agent can skim it
README as an entry point 3/3
README has a clear getting-started section.
Setup 0/14 F

Whether an agent can install the project and get it running without a human.

Deterministic install 0/6
No lockfile. An agent installing dependencies may not get what CI got.
Commit the lockfile your package manager generates. Without it, an agent's install and your install are different builds, and 'works on my machine' becomes unfalsifiable.
Discoverable commands 0/6
No declared commands. An agent has to infer how to build and run this from the file tree.
Declare the handful of commands that matter in package.json scripts, a Makefile, or a justfile. Naming them turns guesswork into a lookup.
Environment config n/a
Not applicable — this reads as a library, with no environment to configure.
Pinned runtime version 0/2
No pinned runtime version.
Add a .nvmrc, .python-version, or equivalent so the agent's toolchain matches yours.
Reproducible environment n/a
Not applicable — a library doesn't need a container to be worked on.
Verification loop 12/25 C+

Whether an agent can check its own work. This is the category that most decides whether agent output is trustworthy.

Tests exist 8/8
72 test files against 110 source files.
e.g. .agents/skills/freehire-search/cli/tests/cli-flag-validation.test.ts, .agents/skills/freehire-search/cli/tests/commands.test.ts, .agents/skills/freehire-search/cli/tests/helpers.ts
Test command is discoverable 0/7
There's no obvious way to run the tests. Even if tests exist, an agent won't reliably find the entry point.
Add a `test` script or a `test` target that runs the whole suite with no arguments. The convention is the interface — an agent tries `npm test` and `make test` before it tries reading your CI config.
Continuous integration 4/4
2 GitHub Actions workflows define what "passing" means.
Lint and format rules 0/3
No linter or formatter config. Style is tribal knowledge, so agent output will drift from yours.
A formatter config is the cheapest way to stop reviewing whitespace in agent diffs. It moves style from opinion to a command.
Static type checking 0/3
No static type checking.
A type checker gives an agent an error message instead of a runtime surprise. It's the second-fastest feedback loop after the compiler.
Context economy 20/20 A+

Whether the repo fits in a context window, or fights it.

No committed build output 6/6
No generated directories committed.
.gitignore hygiene 3/3
.gitignore covers 56 patterns.
File sizes fit in context 6/6
No source file is large enough to crowd out a context window.
Repository weight 5/5
About 3.7MB checked out, which is comfortable.

Here is your AGENTS.md

Drafted from what is actually in this repository: the install command from your lockfile, the commands you already declare, your real directory layout. Anything marked TODO needs a person. Save it at the root as AGENTS.md.

AGENTS.md — drafted for MadsLorentzen/ai-job-search
# AGENTS.md

The job search that runs on your machine. AI job application framework built on Claude Code: evaluate postings, tailor CVs, write cover letters, prep interviews. Fork it and own it.

## Setup

```
# TODO: the install command. No lockfile was found, so this could not be inferred.
```

## Commands

```
# TODO: nothing declares a build or test command, so an agent has to guess.
# This is the single most valuable section of this file. Fill it in.
```

## Layout

- `tests/` 26 source files
- `tools/` 8 source files

## Conventions

- Tests live alongside the code they cover, following `.agents/skills/freehire-search/cli/tests/cli-flag-validation.test.ts`.
- CI defines what passing means. See `.github/workflows/ci.yml`, and keep it green.
- TODO: add the two or three conventions a newcomer always gets wrong here.

## Gotchas

- No lockfile is committed, so an install here may not match what CI produced.

Every deduction above names the file it came from, so this can be settled by looking. If a check missed something, that is a rule worth fixing.
