## The job by hand

Twenty applicants for one role means twenty files, your scorecard open in another tab, and a decision you have to defend later. By applicant twelve the evidence blurs and the notes stop being consistent.

## The ask

> Hello, screen these 20 applicants against this scorecard

## What comes back

A Google Sheet lands in the `Recruiter Screening Workspace` folder in your Google Drive: Candidate, Criterion, Evidence, Gap and Human decision.

| Candidate      | Criterion                | Evidence                               | Gap                         | Human decision                 |

## What it takes over

1.  Reads the exact inputs and sources you approve.
2.  Saves the work as a review-ready Google Sheet in the Recruiter Screening Workspace folder in Google Drive.
3.  Shows evidence, unknowns and blocks instead of guessing.
4.  Prepares the next action and stops at the human gate.

## How buying works

1.  Buy once for $19. Three files arrive: `skill.md`, `setup-prompt.txt` and `usage-prompt.txt`.
2.  Hand the files to the assistant you already use. It sets the job up on Google, Microsoft or Zoho and tests it on fictional data.
3.  Approve the setup. It runs the job and stops at every external action for your sign-off.

## Where it stops

It does not send, spend, publish, schedule or make a human decision without the exact approval that action needs.

## Common questions

### What does the output look like?

A Google Sheet in a Recruiter Screening Workspace folder: candidate, criterion, evidence, gap and a human-decision column. Every score shows the evidence it rests on.

### Does it reject anyone?

No. It prepares evidence cards and stops. Rejection and advancement stay with you.

### Whose scorecard does it use?

Yours. You approve the criteria during setup and it applies exactly those, tested on fictional data first.

## Questions people ask

### What does the Screening Agent actually do?

It screens applicants against your approved scorecard and returns one evidence card per candidate: criterion, evidence, gap, and the decision left to you. It prepares review-ready work and stops for your approval before anything is sent, spent, published or scheduled.

### Which AI assistants work with the Screening Agent?

Any assistant that reads plain-text files: Instinct, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Perplexity, Microsoft Copilot, Hermes, OpenClaw, Town, Muse and others. You hand it three files - skill.md, setup-prompt.txt and usage-prompt.txt.

### Is the Screening Agent $19 a subscription?

No. $19 is one-time. You download and keep the three files forever; there is no account and no renewal.

### How long does setup take?

About 10 minutes: attach the files, run the setup prompt, approve the fictional-data test. It never touches real work until you approve the sample run.
