Documentation

README

Upskill


Overview

/upskill analyses jobs you have tracked and your current profile to identify skill gaps, then produces a heatmap of those gaps and a learning plan with concrete, web-searched study resources and a recommended study order.

Invocation

  • /upskill — aggregate mode: analyses all jobs in job_search_tracker.csv, merged with ranked postings (rank_score >= 45) from job_scraper/seen_jobs.json
  • /upskill <URL> — targeted mode: analyses a single job posting fetched from the URL

Step 1: Detect Mode

Check whether the user provided a URL argument:

  • If the invocation was /upskill with no argument → aggregate mode
  • If the invocation was /upskill <URL>targeted mode, store the URL for Step 2

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
