πŸ”§ Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A toggle setting in the user profile to disable all automated AI resume enhancements.
  2. A mandatory 'Review Changes' screen that requires user approval before any AI-generated edits are saved to a resume.
  3. A version history feature allowing users to easily revert to their original resume file after an AI modification.
