mohitagw15856 036511ab3e Windsurf + Aider targets, MCP server, and demo placement (#33)
Broadens both reach (more tools) and content types (an MCP server), continuing
the multi-platform story.

Windsurf + Aider:
- build-exports.mjs gains two platforms: exports/windsurf/*.md (workspace rules,
  trigger: model_decision) and exports/aider/*.md (conventions for `aider --read`).
  Now 5 platforms (ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, Windsurf, Aider).
- install.sh + bin/cli.mjs install both (windsurf -> .windsurf/rules, aider ->
  .aider/skills with a --read hint); generated README index is excluded from copies.
- One-line windsurf-install.sh / aider-install.sh wrappers for parity.

MCP server (new content type):
- mcp/server.mjs — zero-dependency stdio MCP server exposing list_skills,
  search_skills, get_skill. Published as a second bin (pm-claude-skills-mcp).
  Logs to stderr; reads bundled skills/ at startup. mcp/README.md documents
  client config.

Also: README hero "See it in action" demo placement (ready to swap in a GIF;
recording guide in web/docs-assets/README.md), Works-With table + exports +
install docs updated, CHANGELOG Unreleased. package.json files/bin updated.

# Job Description Writer Skill
Writes complete, inclusive job descriptions that attract the right candidates and reduce bias in the hiring process.
## Required Inputs
- **Job title and level**
- **Team and reporting line**
- **Top 5 things this person will actually do**
- **Must-have requirements** (be ruthless — only what is truly required)
- **Nice-to-have requirements**
- **Salary range** (JDs with salary ranges get 30% more applicants)
- **Location and remote policy**
- **Company description** (2-3 sentences)
## Output Structure
### [Job Title]
**[Company] | [Location] | [Remote policy] | [Salary range]**
**About [Company]**
[2-3 sentences. Specific and honest — not marketing copy.]
**The Role**
[3-4 sentences. What this person will own, why the role exists now, what success looks like in year one.]
**What You Will Do**
[6-8 bullet points. Outcomes and responsibilities, not activities. Start each with an action verb. Most important first.]
**What We Are Looking For**
Must have (4-6 items only):
- [Requirement]
Nice to have (3-4 items):
- [Nice to have]
**What We Offer**
[Compensation, benefits, development. Be specific.]
**How to Apply**
[Clear instructions. What to send, where, timeline.]

### Inclusive Language Review
**Words to remove or replace:**
| Original | Replace with | Why |
|---|---|---|
| "rockstar" | "experienced" | Gendered connotation |
| "ninja" | "skilled" | Same issue |
| "must have degree" | "relevant experience or qualification" | Excludes qualified non-graduates |
**Requirement audit:**
- Years of experience requirements flagged (screen out women and underrepresented groups disproportionately)
- Any requirements potentially discriminating against protected characteristics
## Quality Checks
- [ ] Salary range included
- [ ] Must-haves genuinely essential (6 items max)
- [ ] Each responsibility starts with action verb
- [ ] Inclusive language review completed
- [ ] No years-of-experience requirements unless legally required
## Anti-Patterns
- [ ] Do not include years-of-experience requirements unless legally necessary — they exclude qualified candidates and may create legal risk
- [ ] Do not list "nice to have" items in the requirements section — separate mandatory from desirable clearly
- [ ] Do not use gendered or exclusionary language — run the inclusive language check before finalising
- [ ] Do not write a responsibilities section with more than 8 items — prioritise the most important duties
- [ ] Do not omit compensation range where legally required or culturally expected — hiding salary deters qualified candidates
## Example Trigger Phrases
- "Write a job description for a [role]"
- "Create an inclusive job posting for [role]"
- "Review and rewrite this JD: [paste]"
