README
AI Job Agent — Chrome Extension
A local-first Chrome extension that turns the browser into an AI agent for job search and job applications. It opens as a Chrome Side Panel, reads the page you are on, and (in later phases) drives search, scoring, resume tailoring and form filling under your supervision.
This is a personal tool. There is no server, no account, and no multi-user anything. All data stays in the browser profile on this machine.

Verified in real Chrome 152: 208 unit tests, 107/107 end-to-end checks — including a complete real pass against Claude that filters a search, discovers three jobs, opens one, tailors a CV, fills eleven fields, holds for review, submits on approval, and confirms the application from the page that came back.
**What it will not do.** It will not sign in, solve a CAPTCHA, or work around any security prompt — it stops and hands the tab back. It will not put a value in a form that it cannot trace to your profile. It will not report an application as submitted unless it read the confirmation on the page afterwards. And it will not submit at all unless you say so: **review is the default**.
