SkillsHome Desktop is a lightweight native app for candidates. Sign in with your existing SkillsHome account, then pick how your resume gets read.
Point it at a local Ollama (or other OpenAI-compatible) endpoint on your own machine. Nothing about your resume or profile content leaves your device.
Use your own API key against a frontier model provider. The key is stored only in your OS's native credential store — Keychain, Credential Manager, or Secret Service — never sent to SkillsHome's servers.
Prefer not to run anything locally? Route through the same server-side extraction pipeline the web app uses.
Extraction runs on your machine, you review the results, then confirm — only the confirmed, reviewed data syncs to your profile.
These builds are currently unsigned — proper code signing is a planned fast-follow, not yet set up. Your OS will warn you on first launch; this is expected, not a sign of a bad download.
macOS: Gatekeeper says the app "cannot be opened because it is from an unidentified developer." Right-click (or Control-click) the app → Open → Open again in the confirmation dialog. You only need to do this once.
Windows: SmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC." Click More info → Run anyway.
