Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Define Ideal Customer Profile (ICP)
  2. Research Channels
  3. Data Collection
  4. Lead Qualification Scoring
  5. Email Verification
  6. Deliverable Assembly

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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (JavaScript), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • node

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • linkedin.com
    • acme.com

    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 Lead Generator loads about 2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 49 tokens; SKILL.md has 619 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~49
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

Lead Generation Process

Step 1: Define Ideal Customer Profile (ICP)

Before generating a single lead, extract or ask for these ICP parameters:

yaml
ICP Definition:
  Industry: {e.g., "SaaS", "E-commerce", "Healthcare"}
  Company Size: {employee range, e.g., "10-50", "50-200"}
  Revenue Range: {e.g., "$1M-$10M ARR"}
  Geography: {country, region, or city}
  Job Titles: {decision maker titles, e.g., "CEO", "CTO", "Head of Marketing"}
  Tech Stack: {optional - tools they use, e.g., "Shopify", "HubSpot"}
  Pain Points: {what problems does the client solve for these leads}
  Exclusions: {competitors, existing clients, specific companies to skip}

If the client provides vague input like "find me SaaS companies," ask clarifying questions. The ICP quality directly determines lead quality.

Step 2: Research Channels

Use these sources in priority order:

  1. Company websites - About pages, team pages, contact pages.
  2. LinkedIn - Company pages, employee directories (respect rate limits).
  3. Industry directories - Clutch, G2, Capterra, Crunchbase, AngelList.
  4. Job boards - Companies hiring for relevant roles signal growth.
  5. Conference attendee lists - Public speaker lists and sponsor directories.
  6. Press releases - Funding announcements signal budget availability.
  7. GitHub - For developer-focused leads, check org pages.
  8. Social media - Twitter/X bios, LinkedIn posts related to pain points.
Step 3: Data Collection

For each lead, collect the following fields:

json
{
  "company": "Company Name",
  "website": "https://company.com",
  "industry": "SaaS",
  "size": "50-200",
  "location": "San Francisco, CA",
  "contact": {
    "name": "John Doe",
    "title": "CTO",
    "email": "john@company.com",
    "phone": "+1-555-0123",
    "linkedin": "https://linkedin.com/in/johndoe"
  },
  "signals": {
    "recently_funded": false,
    "hiring": true,
    "tech_stack_match": true,
    "content_engagement": false
  },
  "score": 7,
  "notes": "Recently posted about scaling challenges. Hiring 3 engineers."
}

Required fields: company, website, contact.name, contact.title, contact.email, score. Strongly recommended: phone, linkedin, location, industry. Optional but valuable: signals, notes.

Step 4: Lead Qualification Scoring

Score every lead from 1-10 using this rubric:

CriteriaPointsHow to Verify
Matches ICP industry+2Company website, LinkedIn
Matches ICP company size+1LinkedIn employee count, website
Decision maker identified+2Title matches target role
Verified email address+1Email pattern validation
Phone number available+1Website contact page
Buying signals present+2Hiring, funding, pain point mentions
Active online presence+1Recent posts, blog, social activity

Score interpretation:

ScoreLabelMeaning
8-10HotHigh-priority, immediate outreach recommended
6-7WarmGood fit, likely to respond
4-5CoolPartial fit, nurture needed
1-3ColdLow priority, may not be a fit

Only include leads with score >= 4 in the deliverable. Replace any leads scoring below 4 with better-qualified alternatives.

Step 5: Email Verification

For every email, apply these validation checks:

  1. Format check - Valid email format (RFC 5322).
  2. Domain check - Domain exists, has MX records.
  3. Pattern matching - Use common patterns: first@, first.last@, firstl@.
  4. Catch-all detection - Note if the domain accepts all addresses.
  5. Disposable email - Flag and exclude disposable email domains.

Mark email confidence level:

  • Verified - Confirmed via public source or pattern match on known domain.
  • Likely - Pattern-based guess on valid domain.
  • Unverified - Could not confirm, included as best guess.
Step 6: Deliverable Assembly

Package leads in the following formats:

Primary: JSON file

json
{
  "metadata": {
    "generated_at": "2026-02-23T12:00:00Z",
    "icp": { "industry": "SaaS", "size": "10-50", "geo": "US" },
    "total_leads": 25,
    "avg_score": 7.2,
    "score_distribution": { "hot": 8, "warm": 12, "cool": 5 }
  },
  "leads": [
    { "...lead object..." }
  ]
}

Ethical Guidelines

These are non-negotiable rules:

  1. No scraping personal data from platforms that prohibit it in their ToS.
  2. Business emails only - Never collect personal email addresses.
  3. No deception - Never impersonate someone to get contact info.
  4. Respect opt-outs - If a company has a "do not contact" notice, skip them.
  5. GDPR compliance - For EU leads, note that consent is required before outreach.
  6. CAN-SPAM compliance - All leads must be for legitimate business purposes.
  7. Data minimization - Only collect what is needed for outreach.
  8. Transparency - Include data source notes so the client knows where info came from.

Quality Standards

  • Minimum 80% email verification rate (verified + likely).
  • No duplicate companies in the same list.
  • No leads from the client's exclusion list.
  • Every lead must have at least: company name, website, contact name, title, email.
  • Average score of delivered list must be >= 6.0.
  • Hot leads must represent at least 20% of the list.
