"description": "Write a specific, non-generic cover letter that connects your evidence to the role. Use when asked to write a cover letter, an application letter, or a note to accompany a resume. Produces a tight 3–4 paragraph letter — a real hook, two evidence paragraphs mapping your proof to the job's needs, and a confident close — tailored to the company, ready to export as a designed PDF."

Cover Letter Skill
Most cover letters are throat-clearing the reader skips. A good one does one job: connect your specific evidence to this company's specific need, in a voice that sounds like a person. This skill writes a tight, tailored letter — no "I am writing to apply for…", no restating the resume — that earns the read.
Required Inputs
Ask for these only if they aren't already provided:
- The role & company — and the job description (the letter must be specific to it).
- Why this company — something genuine: their product, mission, a recent move (avoids generic flattery).
- Your 2–3 strongest, most relevant proofs — the achievements that map to what they need.
- Tone — warm-professional (default), or more formal/creative per the company's culture.
Output Format
A 3–4 paragraph letter (≈250–350 words):
[Name] · [email] · [phone] · [date] Dear [hiring manager name, or "Hiring Team" if unknown],
Hook (1 short para) — open with a specific reason you're writing to them — a genuine connection to their product/mission/moment — and the role you want. No "I am writing to apply."
Evidence (1–2 paras) — the heart: take the role's top 2–3 needs and show, with a concrete result each, that you've done it. Map your proof to their problem; don't recap the resume — interpret it.
Close (1 short para) — what you'd bring, an honest note of enthusiasm, and a forward-looking line ("I'd love to talk about…"). Confident, not desperate.
Sincerely, [Name]
Voice note (for the user): keep it human — contractions, active voice, no thesaurus words. Read it aloud; if it sounds like a robot, cut.
Quality Checks
- The opening is specific to this company — it could not be pasted to another employer
- Each evidence point maps a real, quantified result to one of the role's stated needs
- It complements the resume (interprets/connects) rather than repeating its bullets
- Under ~350 words; tight, scannable paragraphs
- Voice sounds like a person (contractions, active verbs), not a template
- Addressed to a named person where findable
Anti-Patterns
- Do not open with "I am writing to apply for the position of…" — it wastes the most valuable line
- Do not restate the resume — the letter adds connection and context, not a duplicate list
- Do not use generic flattery ("your prestigious company") — name something real and specific
- Do not pad to a page — a tight 4 paragraphs beats a full page of filler
- Do not sound desperate or arrogant — aim for confident and genuinely interested
Based On
Modern cover-letter practice — specific hook, evidence-to-need mapping, human voice.
