JobCtrl v0.1.1

JobCtrl v0.1.1 is an early-access patch release focused on faithful resume editing and PDF export, safer tailoring, clearer provider failures, auditable compensation evidence, and more reliable pipeline recovery.

Highlights

Resume editing and PDF export

• Export a PDF from every production Plate-backed resume surface: Profile baseline, Preferences template preview, and Apply Review.
• Preserve browser-rendered typography, Unicode glyphs, spacing, page geometry, and line wrapping while keeping exported PDFs searchable and extractable.
• Avoid editor and audit controls, blank trailing pages, and text clipping at page boundaries in exported documents.
• Keep direct Plate edits synchronized with the canonical profile, including inserting new bullets without replacing existing achievements.
• Reorder experience entries with accessible move controls or newest-first ordering. The saved order now drives baseline and tailored text, HTML, and PDF output.
• Add optional position summaries, compact experience and date controls, improved spacing for roles without bullets, and an institution-and-year-first education layout.
• Show resume text size as a clear percentage.

Safer, more concise tailoring

• Treat per-role bullet limits as a ceiling and select the smallest evidence-backed set that covers the target role.
• Bind every tailored bullet and numeric claim to its exact source achievement, preventing metrics from being borrowed across achievements.
• Re-run provenance, fabrication, quality, and judge checks after voice edits so accepted artifacts preserve the meaning of their sources.

Better failure diagnostics and recovery

• Show privacy-safe provider failure counts and diagnostic dimensions in run details, clearly separated from JSON parsing failures.
• Recover terminal pipeline failures from Temporal history, reset exhausted stages correctly on retry, and honor saved internal concurrency.
• Present clearer progress, waiting and failure states, bounded source-family completion estimates, and targeted Tailor and Cover repair guidance.

Job import and compensation evidence

• Import a public job posting by URL from the Jobs page. Successful imports enter the normal score, tailor, cover-letter, and PDF preparation flow while Apply remains separate and explicit.
• Reject private, loopback, credential-bearing, and ambiguous destinations, and route blocked or paywalled pages to Manual Capture.
• Parse employer-posted salary ranges from descriptions and keep them distinct from market estimates.
• Add automatically refreshed, auditable compensation benchmarks with visible source lineage, confidence, sample support, freshness, geography adjustments, and formula inputs.

Upgrade notes

• Candidate Profile storage advances additively to schema 9. Existing supported databases migrate through the normal paired-backup, validation, rollback, and interruption-recovery path.
• There is no launcher protocol or signed-distribution schema change in this release.
