Use when a resume YAML (a variant of the general base, or a base change the owner ordered) needs its PDFs (and a DOCX for Workday), when the page count must be checked, or when a render failed and must be reproduced.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Build the resume PDF

Owner: resume-tailor (resume-editor may run it read-only into a scratch folder to reproduce).
Tier: T1. Renderer: `scripts/render_resume.py` (RenderCV 2.8; LaTeX fallback). Every variant renders
with the general base's design: its copies `V/template-classic.yaml` (the resume) and
`V/template-inline.yaml` (the inline-dates copy), at `--density one-page`; T below means
`--template V/template-classic.yaml --density one-page`. The house template
(`resumes/templates/rendercv-ats.yaml`) is the default only for a resume that is not a variant of the
base. Never hand-edit a PDF, `meta.yaml` or a template from here.

## Procedure
1. Work from the user's data folder (`$JAJA_DATA`); V = the resume folder.
2. Lint first: `python3 scripts/render_resume.py lint --input V/resume.yaml T`.
   Fix by code: `missing-evidence` / `unknown-evidence` (add or correct the trailing
   `<!-- ev:... -->`, ids must exist in `profile/evidence.yaml`); `evidence-not-trailing` (move the
   comment to the end); `not-a-string` (quote the bullet); `em-dash` (only when `style.no_em_dash` is set);
   `bullet-too-long` (two lines

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add kahl-d/jaja/build-resume-pdf@sha256:4329295fa7ce0100

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261023.580eef2, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
