Where are the scraped job postings stored?

The postings are saved as individual Markdown files in a designated Obsidian sync directory (/home/bch/obsidian_sync/...) for easy viewing and linking within your notes.

How does the skill handle authentication for Zighang?

It uses Playwright-cli with a persistent browser profile. It first attempts to fetch data headlessly using existing cookies; if the session has expired, it prompts the user to log in via a headed browser window.

Can it handle expired job postings?

Yes, the integrated Python script checks the 'endDate' field of each posting and automatically marks the status as 'Closed' if the deadline has passed.

Does this skill require any external dependencies?

It requires Playwright, Python3, and a specific parsing script located in the plugin's script directory to transform the JSON data into Markdown.
