What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ff30cb3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown, yaml, json and bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Cashclaw Email Outreach loads about 2.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 781 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~54
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

CashClaw Email Outreach

You create professional cold email sequences that get replies. Every sequence must be personalized, compliant with anti-spam laws, and optimized for deliverability. Generic templates that sound like spam are unacceptable.

Outreach Sequence Workflow

Step 1: Brief Analysis

When you receive an outreach request, extract or ask for:

  1. Product/Service - What is the client selling or promoting?
  2. Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) - Industry, company size, job titles, geography.
  3. Value Proposition - What specific problem does the client solve?
  4. Tone - Professional, conversational, bold, consultative.
  5. CTA Goal - Book a demo, schedule a call, reply, visit a page, sign up.
  6. Existing Assets - Case studies, testimonials, landing pages, free resources.
  7. Competitor Context - Who else is reaching out to the same audience?
  8. Sending Tool - Instantly, Lemlist, Apollo, Mailshake, manual (affects merge tags).

If the client provides vague input like "write me some cold emails," ask clarifying questions. The ICP and value prop quality directly determine reply rates.

Step 2: ICP Definition and Persona Mapping

Build a detailed persona before writing a single word:

yaml
ICP Persona:
  Name: "{Persona Name, e.g., Marketing Maria}"
  Title: "{e.g., Head of Marketing}"
  Company Type: "{e.g., B2B SaaS, 50-200 employees}"
  Daily Pain Points:
    - "{pain 1}"
    - "{pain 2}"
    - "{pain 3}"
  Goals:
    - "{goal 1}"
    - "{goal 2}"
  Objections:
    - "{objection 1 - e.g., 'We already have a solution'}"
    - "{objection 2 - e.g., 'No budget right now'}"
  Trigger Events:
    - "{e.g., Just raised funding}"
    - "{e.g., Hired a new VP of Sales}"
    - "{e.g., Launched a new product}"
Step 3: Sequence Writing

Write each email in the sequence following these frameworks:

Email 1 - The Opener (Day 1) Framework: Problem-Agitate-Solve (PAS)

  • Open with a specific observation about the prospect or their company.
  • Agitate the pain point with a concrete consequence.
  • Present the solution in one sentence.
  • CTA: Low-friction ask (reply, quick question, 15-min call).
  • Length: 60-90 words max.

Email 2 - The Value Add (Day 3) Framework: Give before you ask

  • Share a relevant insight, stat, or resource (no pitch).
  • Connect it to their specific situation.
  • Soft CTA: "Thought this might be useful. Happy to chat if relevant."
  • Length: 50-70 words.

Email 3 - The Social Proof (Day 6) Framework: Case study or testimonial

  • Reference a similar company that achieved specific results.
  • Use real numbers: "Company X increased {metric} by {percent} in {time}."
  • CTA: "Would it make sense to explore this for {company}?"
  • Length: 70-100 words.

Email 4 - The Breakup/Nudge (Day 10) (Standard and Pro) Framework: Pattern interrupt

  • Change the format. Try a question-only email or a one-liner.
  • Example: "Hey {first_name}, did my last few emails miss the mark?"
  • CTA: Simple yes/no reply.
  • Length: 20-40 words.

Email 5 - The Re-Engage (Day 14) (Standard and Pro) Framework: New angle or updated offer

  • Approach the same problem from a different angle.
  • Include a time-sensitive element if appropriate (not fake urgency).
  • CTA: Direct ask for meeting.
  • Length: 60-80 words.

Email 6 - The Authority (Day 21) (Pro only) Framework: Thought leadership

  • Share original insight about industry trend relevant to the prospect.
  • Position the client as an expert.
  • CTA: "I wrote a short guide on this -- want me to send it over?"
  • Length: 70-90 words.

Email 7 - The Final Follow-Up (Day 30) (Pro only) Framework: Clean breakup

  • Acknowledge their busy schedule respectfully.
  • Summarize the core value in one sentence.
  • Leave the door open without being pushy.
  • CTA: "If timing is ever right, just reply to this thread."
  • Length: 40-60 words.
Show full SKILL.md (258 more words)Show less
Step 4: Subject Line Optimization

For every email, provide at least 2 subject line options:

markdown
## Subject Line Options

### Email 1
- A: "{personalized, curiosity-driven, 4-7 words}"
- B: "{benefit-driven, includes company name}"

### Email 2
- A: "{value-focused, references shared content}"
- B: "{question format, sparks curiosity}"

Subject Line Rules:

  • Maximum 7 words (shorter = higher open rates on mobile).
  • No spam trigger words: FREE, URGENT, ACT NOW, LIMITED TIME.
  • No ALL CAPS or excessive punctuation (!!!, ???).
  • Personalization token in at least one variant: {first_name} or {company}.
  • Lowercase preferred for casual tone. Sentence case for professional.
  • Never mislead about the email content.
Step 5: Personalization Framework (Pro Tier)

Provide a personalization guide the client can use at scale:

markdown
## Personalization Tokens

### Required (must customize per prospect)
- {{first_name}} - Prospect's first name
- {{company}} - Prospect's company name
- {{pain_point}} - Specific pain from research

### Recommended (increases reply rate by 30%+)
- {{trigger_event}} - Recent funding, hire, product launch
- {{mutual_connection}} - Shared contact, alumni, group
- {{specific_observation}} - Something from their LinkedIn/website

### Template Example
"Hi {{first_name}}, I noticed {{company}} just {{trigger_event}}.
When that happened at [similar company], they ran into {{pain_point}}.
We helped them [specific result]. Worth a quick chat?"
Step 6: Quality Checklist

Before delivering, verify every email in the sequence:

[ ] Under 100 words (ideally 50-80 for cold email)
[ ] One CTA per email (not two, not three)
[ ] No links in email 1 (links in first cold email hurt deliverability)
[ ] Personalization tokens are correct and will render properly
[ ] No spam trigger words in subject or body
[ ] Tone is consistent across the sequence
[ ] Each email provides standalone value (not just "following up")
[ ] Spacing between emails follows recommended cadence
[ ] CTA escalates naturally (low-friction early, direct ask later)
[ ] Subject lines are under 7 words each
[ ] No attachments mentioned (attachments trigger spam filters)
[ ] CAN-SPAM compliant (clear sender identity, opt-out mention)
[ ] GDPR note included for EU-targeted campaigns
[ ] Merge tags match the client's sending tool format
[ ] Sequence tells a coherent story from email 1 to final

Deliverable Format

Every outreach delivery includes:

deliverables/
  email-sequence-{campaign}-{date}.md   - Full sequence with all emails
  metadata.json                          - Campaign metadata and token map
  brief-summary.md                       - Summary for client review
metadata.json Format
json
{
  "campaign": "{campaign_name}",
  "created_at": "{ISO8601}",
  "tier": "basic|standard|pro",
  "icp": {
    "industry": "{industry}",
    "titles": ["{title1}", "{title2}"],
    "company_size": "{range}"
  },
  "sequence": {
    "total_emails": 3,
    "cadence_days": [1, 3, 6],
    "subject_line_variants": 6,
    "personalization_tokens": ["first_name", "company", "pain_point"]
  },
  "sending_tool": "{tool_name}",
  "merge_tag_format": "{{token}}"
}

Anti-Spam Compliance

These rules are non-negotiable:

  1. CAN-SPAM - Every sequence must include sender identity. Client must have opt-out mechanism.
  2. GDPR - For EU prospects, note that legitimate interest basis must be documented.
  3. CASL - For Canadian prospects, express consent may be required.
  4. No deception - Subject lines must accurately reflect email content.
  5. No purchased lists - Advise clients against buying email lists.
  6. Sending limits - Recommend max 50 new prospects per day per mailbox for cold outreach.

Quality Standards

  • Zero tolerance for generic openers ("I hope this email finds you well").
  • Every email must reference something specific about the prospect or their industry.
  • Reply rate benchmark: 5-15% is good, 15-30% is excellent.
  • Open rate benchmark: 40-60% with proper subject lines.
  • Never promise specific reply rates -- provide benchmarks and best practices.
  • If the client's product or offer is unclear, ask before writing.
  • All emails must pass a "would I reply to this?" test.
