The experience interviewer can see what you selected
Selecting a couple of near-duplicate achievements on the Experience tab and asking the assistant to sort them out did not work as well as it looked. The conversation opened on the right achievements and the agent could not actually see any of them.
What was going wrong
The opening message named your selected achievements by their internal ids. The assistant had one way to look at your bank — a search that works by meaning, the same one it uses to find evidence for “led a team” or “ran Kubernetes in production”. Ids mean nothing to a search like that, so it found nothing, and finding nothing is how it learns an achievement does not exist.
So it searched again, more broadly, and eventually answered about a different set of achievements — ones a text search happened to turn up. Everything it said was about work you had done. It just was not about the ones you had picked.
What it does now
The assistant can read achievements directly. When you select some and open the interviewer, it reads those exact ones first — claim, situation, numbers, skills and the role each belongs to — and opens by telling you what they say.
That changes what it can be trusted with:
- Merges are proposed with evidence. Before suggesting two achievements are the same work, it tells you what both actually say, so you can disagree. It used to be able to ask for a merge it had never examined.
- Sharpening an achievement no longer risks the numbers already in it. Metrics and skills are stored as a set, so an assistant adding one number without having read the rest could replace them. It reads first.
- The duplicate clusters we detect are readable. Your profile summary has always reported groups of near-paraphrases; the assistant can now open one and describe it rather than pointing at it.
The panel stops competing with the list
The interviewer opens beside your bank rather than sending you to another page. It was also sitting inside the page’s content column, so the conversation and the achievements it was about were both cramped into half the space.
The panel is now docked to the edge of the window and the page steps aside for it, with the account menu folding to its icon rail while it is open. The result is that your achievements are no wider apart than before — on most screens they get slightly more room than with the panel closed. Your menu returns to however you had it when you close the panel.
On narrower screens there is no arrangement where both are comfortable, so the conversation covers the bank and hands it back when you close it, as it did before.
Nothing changed about the conversation itself: same interviewer, same tools, same session
list, and /my/assistant still opens it full-width if you would rather have the room.
