feat: candidate differentiation from other likely applicants #137

Description

@warnes

Sub-issue of #80 (item 4 — "Differentiation from other likely candidates").

Context

Partially addressed today by the persuasion-expert review: tasks/user-story-persuasion-expert.md defines a "differentiation from generics" criterion (no generic-summary phrasing; a rare skill combination should contrast the candidate with the typical applicant pool), and GAP-104 (closed) added pattern-interrupt cover-letter openers.

This item proposes a broader, explicit differentiation capability for the application package.

Proposed direction (broad; refine before building)

  • Generate explicit "why this candidate" differentiators vs the likely applicant pool for a given role.
  • Suggest supporting evidence (rare skill combinations, domain-specific wins) to weave into summary, bullets, and cover letter.
  • Keep it a user-reviewable suggestion layer (no silent edits to generated files).

Acceptance criteria

  • Differentiator assessment surfaced as structured, user-reviewable suggestions.
  • Reuse/close the loop with existing persuasion-expert differentiation criteria rather than duplicating them.
  • No silent writes to Master CV or generated documents (consistent with Add optional in-app persona review for generated documents #60's safety rule).
