Job Tracker

Track job applications, contacts, deadlines, and follow-up reminders in a local SQLite database.

Use this skill when the user wants to capture job applications, update status, list upcoming follow-ups, or summarize the health of their application pipeline.

When to Use

• Logging a new application from a chat message.
• Updating status after an interview or recruiter reply.
• Finding deadlines or follow-ups due soon.
• Summarizing the current application pipeline.

Commands

The helper script stores state in {baseDir}/.runtime/job-tracker.db.

Add an application

python {baseDir}/scripts/job_tracker.py add --company "Example Corp" --role "AI Engineer" --status applied --applied-on 2026-03-20 --next-follow-up 2026-03-27 --contact-name "Priya" --contact-email "[e-mail]"

Update an application

python {baseDir}/scripts/job_tracker.py update --id 1 --status interview --note "Recruiter scheduled first-round screen" --next-follow-up 2026-03-30

List applications

python {baseDir}/scripts/job_tracker.py list --status interview

Show follow-ups due soon

python {baseDir}/scripts/job_tracker.py due --window 7

Show a summary

python {baseDir}/scripts/job_tracker.py summary

Safety Boundaries

• Never invent application updates that the user did not supply.
• Treat inferred dates as tentative unless explicitly confirmed.
• Keep recruiter notes factual and avoid speculative judgments.
• If a required field is missing, say so clearly instead of writing partial garbage into the database.
