## Why this exists
A Power BI apprenticeship was once read wrong. Its *mission* bullets said "take ownership of
Power BI developments of increasing complexity", so a Power-BI-specialist CV was drafted with

Reading responsibilities as requirements inflates the CV, invites interview questions you
cannot defend, and mis-positions you against the role. This skill exists to make that
mistake structurally impossible.

## Step 0 — Quick score first
Before anything else, output one line:
`**<Company> — <Role>. X/5.** <one-sentence reason>`
Then run the analysis. Do not build any document until the user gives a go-ahead. A fast,

## Step 1 — Load ground truth

per-skill caveats, and those caveats are binding. If it says *"SharePoint — not verified,
never claim"*, then SharePoint never appears, no matter what the JD wants.
2. **`profile.yml`** — lo
