Recruitment scaffold

A complete program, not a fragment: it compiles as written. Copy it, rename the placeholder identifiers to your domain, and run axon check — the compiler will tell you what your renaming broke. An MCP client can also generate it through the axon.compose tool by naming the recruitment domain.

// AXON Recruitment scaffold — resume screening + candidate ranking
// pipeline with anti-bias anchor + EEOC-aligned compliance posture.
//
// Critical anchor surface: bias detection is mandatory; the candidate
// ranking step is gated by a NoBiasInRanking anchor that the model
// must clear before emission. Production deployments would also wire
// a heal routine for human review of borderline rankings.
