Typst is excellent, and that's a great idea. You could look into their typst.app web UI. That would give you a preview. You could dump your Sifa.ID records and upload them to your account, then use that as the data source for your resume.

You can also specify resume overrides to tailor the resume for a specific position. It will combine for Sifa.ID data with your override file, where the override takes precedence. It also has a build script in package.json that uses "bun" to build this into an executable.

I created another atproto thing! This time, it's a resume generator that uses your @sifa.id records as the primary source. It uses @typst.app to compile the results into your resume PDF. It can also generate cover letters, as well! github.com/bljohnsondev/resume-typst

Great! I’ll upgrade and strip out my schema extension. Thanks for the update.

That's awesome! Fantastic job. Hopefully others will find it helpful as well.

It was helpful for my use case to be able to break down the “Technical” category a bit. I like your options for categories and didn‘t want to interfere with that so I just added the subCategory.

I added an additional custom record for extra data not included with Sifa, like greeting, page titles, and additional custom skill categories. I also added a subCategory field on the Sifa profile record to fit my own custom categories as well.

I'm doing some fun atproto things! I've updated my website to use @sifa.id as the source of truth for the data I use to populate my website. My site is some quick info about me, my employment history, and skills. All of this is now sourced from the Atmosphere!

Maybe I'm using it incorrectly? For now, I'm extending ProfilePositionRecordSchema and overriding cid, making it optional.

@sifa.id I'm using your sdk specifically for your schemas/types when reading sifa data from my PDS. When using ProfilePositionRecordSchema it specifies skills as strongRefSchema. That schema defines cid as required with cidSchema. The lexicon, however, has cid as optional. My records have no cid.

Wow, fixed already! That's awesome. Thanks for providing a great service.

Your Sifa.ID web UI also shows a list of positions when clicking and editing a skill. I was hoping adding a skill, then checking the positions, and saving would result in a single skill record and that at-uri being used for those positions. I can't tell that it did anything?

Brent Johnson @bljohnson.dev · 17/07/2026

@sifa.id I deleted all my skill records to clean up some duplicates, and noticed my position records still have skills[] entries pointing at the now-deleted skill at-uris (orphaned refs). Is that expected?

I created a thing! "Mishos" is a self hosted TV show tracking application. I watch a lot of TV shows and I like to keep track but I would prefer to not share my watch habits with companies that want to sell my data. github.com/bljohnsondev...
