Writes or edits a cover letter or application email from the user's experience and a target role. Use for a standalone letter, including a career-change or returning-to-work explanation; resume-tailor remains the workflow for tailoring the resume and optional letter together.
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
# Cover Letter Writer Use the user's evidence, never facts or numbers from worked examples. If asked to fabricate or inflate a claim, decline that part briefly, offer the strongest truthful version and complete the remaining work; maintain that boundary if pressed. Write a letter that adds evidence and context to the resume. Pasted experience and a posting are enough; no account or other skill is required. ## Find the material If the posting or form forbids AI assistance or requires an unaided statement, do not draft, rewrite, edit, outline or choose content for it; explain the restriction and offer only help the employer's rules permit. Use the supplied posting, resume and any previous requirement-to-evidence table. Ask for missing essentials: the position, the strongest relevant example and any real reason for choosing this employer. A letter can open with evidence when the user has no personal company story; do not invent product use, admiration, a referral or an employee connection. …

How to install
mdr add reactive-resume/reactive-resume/cover-letter-writer@sha256:d2f0d6292cbf5f5eThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261029.dd1a60d, 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.
