Configuration

Press e in AIHawk to change these on the screen. AIHawk reads aihawk.yaml in its folder, ~/.aihawk by default. A missing file, or a missing key, takes the default below. Restart aihawk after you edit the file.

Loading a resume rewrites this file, and the rewrite drops the comments you put in it, so keep your notes elsewhere.

Your answers

What the forms are told about you beyond the CV (email, phone, location, links, and anything you add) lives in the answers table of data/jobs.db, the SQLite file in the AIHawk folder. Press e, then "Your answers", to see, change or add them; an answer you gave is kept when a new resume is read. AIHawk makes an account_password the first time it starts and keeps it there: the one password it uses on job sites that need an account, such as Workday, so you can sign in to those sites yourself. The answers.yaml of earlier versions is read once, brought into the table and renamed answers.yaml.imported.

Key	Default	What it does
name	empty	Your name for this search, shown at the top of the list.
goals	empty	What you are looking for, in your own words. The decision model and the judge read it.
database	https://github.com/feder-cr/Jobs_Applier_AI_Agent/releases/download/jobs-latest/manifest.json	Where the job database is: the URL of its manifest.json, or the path of a local one. The files it names sit beside it, unless its base_url says otherwise.
max_age_days	60	Postings posted more than this many days ago are left out. A posting with no date is kept.
model	deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash	Fills the application forms.
quick_model	google/gemini-3.5-flash	Writes the search plan from your CV, and the other short calls of a search.
judge_model	deepseek/deepseek-v4.1-flash	Writes the score and the report of each shortlisted posting.
decision_model	typesafe/jev-1.14	Jev, which answers the six questions that shortlist the postings.
filters.include	empty	Title words to search for. With no plan, each word is one title. AIHawk asks for a resume until there is a CV and at least one of these.
filters.exclude	empty	Whole words: a posting whose title has one of them is left out.
filters.locations	empty	Places a posting's location must name, as whole words.
filters.countries	empty	Countries. A posting in one of them passes. With locations, a posting that names one of those places passes only if its country is empty or one of these.
filters.cities	empty	Cities. A posting whose location names one ranks higher; others are not left out.
filters.plan	empty	The title plan, with nodes and arcs. Each node has an id, a weight and forms, the wordings with their weights; a node of weight 0 only conditions the arcs. Each arc has when or unless (a node or a phrase in the title) and then, a list of target and multiplier; the target * is the whole title. Empty: the plan is filters.include.
