Set up Seekter for a new candidate. Interviews the user one question at a time and writes profile/profile.md, profile/settings.json and profile/documents/. Use when the user runs /seekter-init, says "set up seekter", or when profile/profile.md is missing.

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

# /seekter-init — build the candidate profile

The goal is a complete `profile/profile.md` (from `templates/profile.md`) and `profile/settings.json` (from `templates/settings.json`). Every other Seekter skill reads only these files, so nothing may be guessed here: a value the user didn't give stays `ASK` in the profile, and a setting they didn't answer keeps the template's default.

## Rules for the interview

- **One question per message.** Short, plain, in the user's language. Offer choices with the question tool when the answer is one of a few options; free text otherwise.
- **Draft, then confirm.** If a CV (or a LinkedIn profile saved as PDF) is available, read it first and turn questions into confirmations ("Your CV says 8 years in this field. Correct?"). Never write a value from the CV without the user confirming it.
- **Skippable.** "Skip" or "later" writes `ASK` and moves on. Sensitive items (birth date, ethnicity, disability, gender, salary history) default to "prefer not to say" unless the user volunteers a value.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add selfishprimate/seekter/seekter-init@sha256:77d535c8c3223756

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.6340c94, 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.
