The play

  1. [First step — a GTM verb: "check the CRM", "load the ICP", "pull recent replies". Never a vendor tool name.]
  2. [Next step.]
  3. [If a step has depth worth its own page — a scoring rubric, worked examples, a channel variant — move it to references/<topic>.md and say here when to read it. Most skills worth installing ship 1–4 reference pages; see templates/skill/references/example-reference.md for the shape.]

What good looks like

[Mandatory section — this is the judgment that makes it a skill and not a checklist.]

  • [What the best operator notices first that others miss.]
  • [The common mistake — what the mediocre version looks like.]
  • [How you know the output is good, concretely.]

Rules

  • MUST [a hard rule].
  • NEVER [a hard failure mode].
