Resume Bullet Rewriter

resume-bullet-rewriter

Purpose: Targeted single-bullet rewriter. Accepts one weak bullet and returns a strengthened version plus a metric-gap warning if no number is available.

Input Schema

| Field | Type | Required | |---|---|---| | bullet | string | yes | | context | string | no - role, company, level | | available_metrics | string[] | no - numbers to work in | | preserve_facts | string[] | yes |

{
  "bullet": "Responsible for improving the checkout experience and working with design.",
  "context": "Senior Product Manager, e-commerce startup",
  "available_metrics": ["checkout conversion up 12%", "reduced 3-step flow to 1-step"],
  "preserve_facts": ["12%", "1-step"]
}

Output Schema

{
  "original": "...",
  "revised": "...",
  "changes": ["removed 'responsible for'", "added metric 12%", "started with action verb 'Redesigned'"],
  "metric_warning": null
}

Prompt Flow

Pass 1: Rewrite starting with action verb. Inject best available metric from available_metrics. Remove all banned phrases. Preserve preserve_facts.

Pass 2: If no metric available, output revised bullet + metric_warning: "No metric available - add a number before publishing." Never fabricate a metric.
