# PrepDojo Applications Log new job applications and record stage changes in the user's application tracker: `applications.csv` (one row per application) and `resume-versions.csv` (the resume catalog), living in a folder inside their Obsidian vault. A Dataview dashboard computes pipeline stats live from these files — writing the row is all it takes; never edit the dashboard. The tracker is the user's source of truth for a high-stakes job search. Two consequences, always: - **Preview before writing.** Show the row or the change you intend to write and get an explicit yes. Never auto-log. - **The scripts do the writing.** Use the bundled scripts for every write — they are quote-aware, header-keyed, dedupe-checked, and append-only where it matters. Never string-edit a CSV line, and never rewrite the files by hand. ## Find the tracker (once per session) All paths come from `prepdojo.json` at the user's vault root, written by PrepDojo's `generate.py`. Locate it ONCE per session, in this order, stopping at the first success: 1. **Pointer file.** Read `~/.claude/prepdojo-vault.json` (shape: `{"vault_path": "..."}`). If `<vault_path>/prepdojo.json` exists and parses, use it. 2. **Working folder.** Check the current working folder for `prepdojo.json`, then each parent up to three levels. 3. **Shallow search.** Search the session's accessible folders (connected/mounted folders, uploaded folders) for `prepdojo.json`, depth-limited (e.g. `find <root> -maxdepth 3 -name prepdojo.json
