You are generating a generic forwarding cover letter for sharing with the user's network.

STEP 1: Read the template

Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/resume-customizer/SKILL.md and locate the "Generic Cover Letter (for network forwarding)" section. Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/references/YOUR_PROFILE.md for the user's current role, achievements, and contact info.

STEP 2: Read the humanizer

Read ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/humanizer/SKILL.md and apply the checklist to the generated letter.

STEP 3: Generate the letter

Use the Generic Cover Letter template from SKILL.md exactly. The letter must include:

Salutation: "Dear Friends and Network,"
Brief context of current role and what the user is looking for
Bullet list of target roles (helps forwarders know who to share with)
Bullet list of key achievements (helps forwarders make the pitch)
Request line: "Feel free to forward this note"
Phone number from YOUR_PROFILE.md
LinkedIn URL from YOUR_PROFILE.md
Portfolio URL from YOUR_PROFILE.md (if any)

The tone must be warm, confident, and direct. Not passive. Not "I am exploring" — use "I am looking for" or "I am ready for."

Apply humanizer check before finalizing.

STEP 4: Ask if customization is needed

After generating the standard version, ask: "Would you like a version customized for a specific person (e.g., an alumni connection or a recruiter in a specific sector)?"

If yes, apply the warm-referral template from career-tools.md (Template 4) and personalize for the context.

STEP 5: Output

Print the final letter ready to copy-paste. No placeholders in the output — fill everything in from YOUR_PROFILE.md or ask the user for anything missing.
