SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? New cold email operators face dozens of skills with no clear starting point, and often build lists and copy before realizing they lack warmed sending infrastructure. This Skill provides a single entry point that asks infrastructure-status questions first, then runs the onboarding sequence in the correct order. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Infrastructure-First Triage: Asks about domains, warmed inboxes, and API keys (Smartlead, Prospeo, MillionVerifier) before any business work, preventing the most common launch failure. - Orchestrated Onboarding Chain: Invokes /icp-onboarding, /lead-magnet-brainstorm, and /campaign-strategy in sequence, reusing existing profiles instead of overwriting them. - Consolidated Campaign Plan: Synthesizes all artifacts into a single campaign-plan.md with ICP, offer, top 3 campaigns, infrastructure readiness checklist, and branched next steps. - Use Case: A new operator clones the repo for a B2B SaaS client, runs this Skill, answers three infrastructure questions, and ends with a populated client profile, a chosen lead magnet, 15-25 campaign ideas, and a one-page plan ready to show stakeholders. ## Quick Start Run the cold email kickoff skill to onboard my new business profile and generate a campaign plan from scratch.

FAQPage Schema
How do I start a cold email campaign from scratch?

Run this kickoff skill first. It asks about your sending infrastructure, then invokes ICP onboarding, lead magnet brainstorming, and campaign strategy generation in sequence, producing a consolidated campaign-plan.md with recommended next steps.

What order should cold email onboarding steps run in?

Infrastructure status questions come first, then ICP profile creation, then lead magnet selection, then campaign strategy generation. This order prevents building lists and copy before confirming you have warmed inboxes to send from.

Why do cold email inboxes need two weeks of warmup?

New sending inboxes lack sender reputation, so emails sent immediately land in spam. The skill enforces a loud 2-week warmup warning before launching and routes users without infrastructure to domain and inbox setup skills first.

Does this skill overwrite an existing client profile?

No. If a client-profile.yaml already exists, the skill asks whether to use the existing profile or start fresh before invoking ICP onboarding. It never re-runs onboarding blindly.

Which list-building skill should I use after onboarding?

The skill recommends one based on your ICP: Prospeo full export for title-first searches, lookalike discovery for seed domains, Google Maps for local SMBs, domain-first for named accounts, or competitor-engagers for LinkedIn engagement data.
