Resume-Typesetter

A Claude Code plugin for managing a resume as structured data (JSON Resume schema) and rendering it with custom Typst templates.

Data and presentation stay cleanly separated: the user's resume lives as resume.json, and the plugin ships with Typst templates that read it via Typst's built-in json() function.

Workflow

/resume:onboard — import an existing resume (paste, file, or URL) into <data-repo>/data/resume.json. Configures the data repo path on first run.
/resume:iterate — conversational edits to resume.json (add a role, tighten a bullet, reorder sections).
/resume:variant <name> — fork the base resume into data/variants/<name>.json for a tailored version (e.g. per job application).
/resume:render [template] [variant] — render to PDF in renders/ using a Typst template.
/resume:version [message] — git snapshot the current state of the data repo.

Templates

Bundled under templates/:

classic — traditional single-column layout, serif.
modern — two-column layout with sidebar, sans-serif.

Each template is a Typst file that reads data/resume.json (or a variant) via json(). Add your own templates by dropping a new folder under templates/ with a template.typ file.

Requirements

Typst installed on $PATH (typst --version).
A git-backed repo to hold the resume data (the plugin stores this path in its config on first onboard).

Installation
