jobhound 0.3.0

Action-based CLI for tracking a job hunt

jobhound

Action-based CLI for tracking a personal job hunt. Status changes are a consequence of recorded events (apply, log, withdraw, …), not direct field edits.

Install

uv tool install jobhound   # or: pipx install jobhound

Exposes the jh command.

Usage

jh new --company Acme --role "Senior Engineer"
jh apply acme
jh log acme --channel email --direction to --who recruiter \
            --body draft.md --next-status screen
jh note acme --msg "Recruiter mentioned a hybrid setup"
jh withdraw acme
jh list

Each command is a verb on a single opportunity. Run jh --help for the full set: new, apply, log, withdraw, ghost, accept, decline, note, priority, tag, link, contact, list, edit, archive, delete, sync.

Storage

Per-opportunity data is stored under $XDG_DATA_HOME/jh/ (defaults to ~/.local/share/jh/) as a TOML file plus markdown notes and correspondence. The data root is a git repo with auto-commits on every state change — your history is auditable and you can push it anywhere.

Status

Pre-1.0. The CLI surface is stable; semantic-versioned releases via Conventional Commits.
