- Applications end in a `closed` stage with a reason (not selected, withdrew, accepted another offer, no response). The migration moves `rejected` to closed + not selected and archived applications to closed, rewrites `rejected` in their stage history, and ships rollback.sql for older versions. `archived` stays, deprecated; `rejected` is still accepted as input and means closed. - Once an application with a linked resume reaches Applied, the resume is saved as a "sent" version named after the company, and the application keeps its id and the resume's Check score then. - New columns: closed_reason, cover_letter_id (backfilled where exactly one letter was written for the application), sent_resume_version_id, sent_check_score and requirements. - applications.ai.parsePosting reads a pasted link or posting. Links are fetched on the server: https only, public addresses checked at connect time, three redirects, 2 MB and 10 s at most. A page's JobPosting data fills the fields without AI; with a provider, the model reads role, company, location, salary and requirements. - MCP application tools take closedReason and coverLetterId.

Self-Hosting
Reactive Resume supports Docker and Vercel Hobby.
Vercel provisions Neon PostgreSQL, private Blob storage, and Upstash Redis through its deployment wizard. Supply two persistent secrets, then deploy. See the Vercel guide for setup, limits, and optional SMTP/OAuth configuration.
For Docker, the stack includes:
- PostgreSQL — Database for storing user data and resumes
- SeaweedFS (optional) — S3-compatible storage for file uploads
From v5.1.0 onwards — PDF generation runs entirely client-side via
@react-pdf/renderer. New deployments no longer need Browserless, Chromium, or any external print service. ThePRINTER_*andBROWSERLESS_*environment variables are no longer read and can be removed from your.env.
Pull the latest image from Docker Hub or GitHub Container Registry:
# Docker Hub
docker pull amruthpillai/reactive-resume:latest
# GitHub Container Registry
docker pull ghcr.io/reactive-resume/reactive-resume:latest
See the self-hosting guide for complete instructions.
