Applicant Profile Reader

Read the user's academic-career materials and turn them into a structured applicant profile that downstream application skills can use without repeatedly re-reading every file.

The goal is not to polish one document. The goal is to build a faithful evidence map: who the applicant is academically, what research trajectory their materials support, where the evidence is strong, and what information is missing before writing SOPs, CVs, cold emails, recommender packets, or school-specific fit notes.

Use this when

• The user gives a file or folder containing application materials and asks you to understand their profile.
• The user wants to prepare for PhD, research master's, fellowship, research internship, RA, post-bacc, visiting-student, or lab applications.
• The user asks for a reusable profile before using sop-writer, academic-cv-builder, phd-program-fit-mapper, professor-cold-email-drafter, recommendation-letter-strategist, or phd-application-package-auditor.
• The user has scattered materials: CV/resume, project notes, publications, transcripts, GitHub links, drafts, emails, target-school lists, or recommender notes.
• The user wants to know what their academic-career narrative currently looks like and what evidence is missing.

Do not use this when
