## What it does

Job Hunt Stats gives you the numbers that matter: how many applications went out, where they stand, how outreach is landing, and what's next on the calendar. It cross-checks your tracker against receipt emails and flags anything submitted but not yet recorded.

## What you get

- Headline numbers first
- Status counts
- Outreach reply rate
- Upcoming interviews and deadlines
- Unrecorded submissions flagged

## Data it uses

- Google Sheets or Notion (tracker)
- Gmail or Outlook (receipts) (optional)
- Calendar (optional)

## Safety

- Writes or sends: Read-only.
- Reads: Your application tracker
- Reads: Receipt and status emails (only if connected)
- Reads: Interview events (only if connected)
- Cost: Low: ~4 runs a month, plus on demand.
- Warning: Drafts only: nothing is submitted, applied for, or sent without your explicit OK.
- Warning: Counts each posting once; numbers are only as complete as your tracker.

2. Open a one-to-one chat with your Grok Bot and paste the prompt below, with the file where it says.
3. When the Bot asks, connect: Google Sheets (tracker), Gmail or Outlook (optional), Google Calendar or Outlook (optional). It shows a connect card right in the chat.
4. Try it once now: "Run Job Hunt Stats."
5. The routine shows in the Bot's info pane (click the Bot's name in the chat header) under Routines, where you can pause or edit it.

Note: Skills and routines are saved by asking the Bot; no settings to dig through.

### Muse (partially-verified)

1. Copy skills/job-hunt-stats/SKILL.md.
2. Open Muse and paste the prompt below with the file where it says.
3. Try it: "Run Job Hunt Stats." Muse has no skill install for outside skills, so it follows the pasted instructions.
4. Ask Muse to make it a recurring task every Friday at 5:00 PM. It then shows under the Assistant icon > Upcoming.
5. Muse Code (developer CLI): unzip downloads/job-hunt-stats.zip, run `muse skills validate ./job-hunt-stats` then `muse skills install ./job-hunt-stats --scope user`. Optional: add the BotPlaza connector (https://botplaza.lol/api/mcp) under mcpServers in ~/.config/muse/settings.json.

Note: Recurring tasks and Muse Code skill install are documented by Meta. Installing outside skills in the Muse app is not.

### Dots (partially-verified)

1. Copy skills/job-hunt-stats/SKILL.md.
2. Paste the prompt below into your dot's conversation in ChatGPT, with the file where it says.
3. Wait for the dot to confirm the schedule, time zone and end date.
4. Optional: in ChatGPT, Plugins > + > Add custom MCP server with https://botplaza.lol/api/mcp (no authentication). Dots can use installed plugins, but OpenAI hasn't said whether that includes custom ones.
5. Business, Enterprise, Healthcare and Edu workspaces can also upload downloads/job-hunt-stats.zip under Plugins > Skills > Create > Upload from your computer.

Note: Dots are available on ChatGPT Pro, Business Premium and Enterprise, and are still rolling out. Pasting instructions in and scheduled check-ins are documented.
