Read the contract assistant summary

Two React applications share Django-backed contract data. The chatbot uses a multi-step LLM flow to gather missing details, then creates or updates an editing session. The generated contract opens in the configurator with editable fields populated.

Content & search

Git-backed CMS content is transformed for a REST Content API. Next.js and project-site consumers read the shared content; the central search interface queries the API across selected namespaces.

Automation pipeline

An async scheduled scan reads ATS, employer, and curated feeds through source adapters. Hard eligibility, role, stack, language, and recency filters run before NGO classification and match scoring. Accepted jobs are deduplicated in SQLite, then routed to immediate Discord and Telegram alerts, a six-hour digest, or diagnostics.
