# screen-resume

`station__ats__screen-resume` · external (needs EXECUTION_BACKEND_URL configured) · domain `ats` · pv-relevance `non-pv`

Run the full ATS resume screening chain: format compliance → experience relevance → keyword match → gap detection → recommendation. Returns overall verdict (STRONG_MATCH, CONDITIONAL_MATCH, WEAK_MATCH, REJECT, RECONSIDER), pass probability, and prioritized fix list.

> **Note:** This tool routes through an external execution backend. If `EXECUTION_BACKEND_URL` is unset on the server, calls return JSON-RPC error `-32603 "Tool execution backend not configured"`. Tools with `backend: native` execute in-process and are always callable.
