What it does

Event Vendor Brief is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Brief an event supplier so they quote accurately and deliver what you pictured — the outcome, the constraints, the deliverables, and the questions you need answered in the quote. Use when asked to brief an event supplier, write a vendor brief for caterers, AV, or production, send an RFP for an event, or compare supplier quotes that are not comparable. Produces the outcome brief, the deliverables and constraints, the quote-response template that makes bids comparable, the evaluation criteria, and the questions…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Sales & Support, covering Proposals and quotes. The repository describes itself as: 1255 professional Agent Skills for Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor & Codex — PRDs, postmortems, leases, medical bills, layoffs, go-bags, new countries. Plain markdown, MIT, in… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Asked to brief an event supplier
  • Write a vendor brief for caterers
  • Send an RFP for an event
  • Compare supplier quotes that are not comparable

Example prompts

  • “/event-vendor-brief”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Brief the outcome first. 'Guests should be able to hold a conversation while eating' tells a supplier more than a speaker specification…
  2. Then fix the variables that move price. Headcount, duration, service style, access window, and get-out time. Any of these left vague and…
  3. Give a budget range. Withholding it produces quotes aimed at an imagined number and wastes two rounds. A range is not a weakness.
  4. Mandate the response format. Same line items, same order, same inclusions and exclusions. This single step is what makes comparison…
  5. State the evaluation criteria and weights. Suppliers respond to what is measured, and it keeps your own decision honest later.
  6. Ask what they need from you. The good suppliers answer this well, and it surfaces your own gaps early.
  7. Send the same brief to everyone, at the same time. Otherwise you are comparing responses to different questions.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 1cbf1f0. 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.

    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

Event Vendor Brief loads about 1.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 140 tokens; SKILL.md has 763 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~140
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.5k

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.

description
Brief an event supplier so they quote accurately and deliver what you pictured — the outcome, the constraints, the deliverables, and the questions you need answered in the quote. Use when asked to brief an event supplier, write a vendor brief for caterers, AV, or production, send an RFP for an event, or compare supplier quotes that are not comparable. Produces the outcome brief, the deliverables and constraints, the quote-response template that makes bids comparable, the evaluation criteria, and the questions each supplier must answer.

Event Vendor Brief

Three quotes that cannot be compared is a briefing failure, not a supplier one. Each priced a different event because each was told a different amount. This writes the brief that fixes the variables — outcome, constraints, deliverables, and the exact response format — so the quotes come back on the same basis and the cheapest one is actually the cheapest.

What This Skill Produces

  • The outcome brief — what the supplier is being asked to achieve, not just to provide
  • Deliverables and constraints — the specifics that drive price: quantities, timings, access, and restrictions
  • A quote-response template — the structure every supplier must return, which is what makes bids comparable
  • Evaluation criteria with weights — stated up front, including how price is weighted against everything else
  • The questions each supplier must answer — capability, capacity, contingency, and what they need from you
  • The information they need from you — venue details, access, timings, and contacts, supplied once rather than repeatedly

Required Inputs

Ask for these if not provided:

  • The event — type, date, venue, headcount, format, and the feel you are aiming for
  • The scope for this supplier — what you want them to cover, and what someone else is covering
  • The constraints — budget range, venue restrictions, access times, power, noise limits, curfew
  • The deadline — when quotes are needed and when you will decide
  • What matters most — price, reliability, creativity, sustainability, or experience with this venue

Framework: Brief the Outcome, Fix the Variables, Standardise the Response

  1. Brief the outcome first. 'Guests should be able to hold a conversation while eating' tells a supplier more than a speaker specification, and lets them bring expertise you do not have.
  2. Then fix the variables that move price. Headcount, duration, service style, access window, and get-out time. Any of these left vague and every quote will assume differently.
  3. Give a budget range. Withholding it produces quotes aimed at an imagined number and wastes two rounds. A range is not a weakness.
  4. Mandate the response format. Same line items, same order, same inclusions and exclusions. This single step is what makes comparison possible.
  5. State the evaluation criteria and weights. Suppliers respond to what is measured, and it keeps your own decision honest later.
  6. Ask what they need from you. The good suppliers answer this well, and it surfaces your own gaps early.
  7. Send the same brief to everyone, at the same time. Otherwise you are comparing responses to different questions.

Quality Checks

  • The outcome is briefed before the specification
  • Every price-moving variable is fixed: headcount, duration, service style, access, get-out
  • A budget range is given
  • A mandatory response format is specified so bids arrive comparable
  • Evaluation criteria and weights are stated up front
  • Suppliers are asked what they need from you
  • The identical brief went to every supplier at the same time

Anti-Patterns

  • Specifying equipment instead of outcome. Buys you the supplier's stock list, not their expertise.
  • Withholding the budget. Costs two rounds of quoting and produces irrelevant proposals.
  • No mandated response format. Guarantees incomparable quotes and a decision made on presentation quality.
  • Leaving access and get-out vague. The two largest hidden cost drivers in event supply.
  • Different briefs to different suppliers. Whatever you learn from the comparison is noise.
  • Not asking what they need from you. The gaps surface on the day instead.
  • Choosing on headline price. The exclusions are where the difference actually is.

Example Trigger Phrases

  • "Write a brief for an AV supplier for our conference"
  • "Our catering quotes are impossible to compare — what should the brief have said?"
  • "Write an RFP for event production"
  • "How do I brief a supplier when I do not know the technical details?"
  • "What should I ask suppliers to include in their quote?"
