What it does
Outreach Message is an agent skill from mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills. Write cold outreach and networking messages that actually get replies. Use when asked to write a cold message to a recruiter/hiring manager, a LinkedIn connection note, a referral request, or a networking/coffee-chat ask during a job search. Produces short, specific, reply-worthy messages — tuned to the recipient and the ask — with a clear subject and a low-friction call to action.
Its SKILL.md is about 830 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 Recruiting and HR, Cold outreach and Job search and resumes. It works with LinkedIn. 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 write a cold message to a recruiter/hiring manager
- A LinkedIn connection note
- A referral request
- A networking/coffee-chat ask during a job search
Example prompts
- “/outreach-message”
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
Outreach Message loads about 827 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 100 tokens; SKILL.md has 427 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

- outreach-message
- description
- Write cold outreach and networking messages that actually get replies. Use when asked to write a cold message to a recruiter/hiring manager, a LinkedIn connection note, a referral request, or a networking/coffee-chat ask during a job search. Produces short, specific, reply-worthy messages — tuned to the recipient and the ask — with a clear subject and a low-friction call to action.
Outreach Message Skill
Cold outreach fails when it's long, generic, and all about the sender. The ones that get replies are short, specific to the recipient, and ask for one easy thing. This skill writes that — a message tuned to who you're contacting and what you want (a referral, a chat, a recruiter intro), with a hook that proves you didn't blast it to 200 people.
Required Inputs
Ask for these only if they aren't already provided:
- Who you're messaging — name, role, and your relationship (cold, 2nd-degree, alum, met-once).
- The ask — referral, intro, coffee chat / advice, recruiter follow-up, or reconnect.
- The context — the role/company you're targeting, and a genuine, specific reason you're reaching out to them.
- Your background — one or two lines of relevant credibility.
- Channel — LinkedIn connection note (≤300 chars), LinkedIn DM, or email.
Output Format
Outreach: [ask] → [recipient]
Produce the message(s) tuned to the channel:
- Subject line (for email) — specific and human, not "Quick question" or "Networking."
- The message — short (LinkedIn DM ≈4–6 sentences; connection note ≤300 chars):
- Hook — the specific, genuine reason you're contacting them (their work, a shared connection, something real). Not "I came across your profile."
- Who you are — one credibility line.
- The ask — one clear, low-friction request ("15 minutes?", "would you be open to referring me?", "any advice on X?").
- Easy out — make "no" graceful; it raises reply rates.
- A short follow-up — one polite nudge to send if there's no reply in ~5–7 days.
Offer 2 variants when tone is unclear (warmer vs. more direct), and a note on what makes it work.

Quality Checks
- Opens with a specific, genuine reason for contacting this person — not a template hook
- Short and skimmable; respects the channel's length norms
- Exactly one clear, low-friction ask
- Gives the recipient an easy, graceful way to decline
- Sounds like a person, with a credibility line — not a résumé dump
- Includes a polite follow-up for no-reply
Anti-Patterns
- Do not write a long message — every extra sentence lowers the reply rate
- Do not make it about you — lead with why them, then a tight credibility line
- Do not use a generic hook ("I came across your profile") — it signals a mass blast
- Do not stack multiple asks — one easy request, or none will be answered
- Do not be pushy in the follow-up — one graceful nudge, then stop
Based On
Cold-outreach / networking practice — specificity, brevity, a single low-friction ask, and graceful follow-up.
Example Trigger Phrases
- "Write a cold message to a recruiter."
- "Write a LinkedIn connection note."
- "Ask for a referral."
- "Ask for a coffee chat during my job search."
