Quick Start

Prerequisites:

• Windows 10/11
• .NET 10 runtime for local execution outside packaged release

Install and run:

1. Download a release build or build the CVSmia project locally.
2. Start CVSmia.exe.

Recommended first flow:

1. Open a sample or your own jsonresume file with Ctrl+O in Customizer.
2. Review the source data in the left tree.
3. Add relevant nodes to the tailored resume on the right.
4. Save with Ctrl+S.
5. Preview with Ctrl+P.
6. Run Validation before sharing or exporting.

AI-related quick flow:

1. Ensure AI is enabled in Settings and that the relevant license is present.
2. Open AI-Customizer to tailor against a job ad, or AI Assistert CV Manipulator to process free-form CV text with your own instruction.
3. In AI Assistert CV Manipulator, use Ctrl+O to load source text into the left text box, choose or write an instruction, then run Utfør.

Notes:

• Validation uses the schema configured by Settings:JsonResumeSchemaPath (file or folder).
• AI prompt defaults can be adjusted through ai-prompts.json, with per-user override in %APPDATA%\Solsem Consulting\CVSmia\ai-prompts.override.json.
• Instruction presets for AI Assistert CV Manipulator are loaded from ai-assisted-cv-manipulator-instructions.json.
• If you use SentinelCore startup verification for paid licenses, configure the LicenseCallHome section in appsettings.json before first rollout and start with Mode = ObserveOnly.
