sales-engineer

sales-engineer is a skill for Claude Code from alirezarezvani/claude-skills. It costs 123 tokens per session (2,023 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A sales-engineering toolkit analyzes requests for proposals and information, compares product features with competitors, and plans customer proof-of-concept projects. An RFP or RFI is a document asking vendors to explain how their product meets requirements; a proof of concept is a small trial.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for reviewing RFP and RFI responses, building comparison tables, mapping customer requirements, and planning or scoring proof-of-concept work.
Why use it?
It helps identify missing requirements and security or integration concerns before a proposal or customer trial moves forward.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

sales-engineer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/competitive_matrix_builder.py, scripts/poc_planner.py, scripts/rfp_response_analyzer.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Sales Engineer Skill

5-Phase Workflow

Phase 1: Discovery & Research

Objective: Understand customer requirements, technical environment, and business drivers.

Checklist:

  • Conduct technical discovery calls with stakeholders
  • Map customer's current architecture and pain points
  • Identify integration requirements and constraints
  • Document security and compliance requirements
  • Assess competitive landscape for this opportunity

Tools: Run rfp_response_analyzer.py to score initial requirement alignment.

python scripts/rfp_response_analyzer.py assets/sample_rfp_data.json --format json > phase1_rfp_results.json

Output: Technical discovery document, requirement map, initial coverage assessment.

Validation checkpoint: Coverage score must be >50% and must-have gaps ≤3 before proceeding to Phase 2. Check with:

python scripts/rfp_response_analyzer.py assets/sample_rfp_data.json --format json | python -c "import sys,json; r=json.load(sys.stdin); print('PROCEED' if r['coverage_score']>50 and r['must_have_gaps']<=3 else 'REVIEW')"

Phase 2: Solution Design

Objective: Design a solution architecture that addresses customer requirements.

Checklist:

  • Map product capabilities to customer requirements
  • Design integration architecture
  • Identify customization needs and development effort
  • Build competitive differentiation strategy
  • Create solution architecture diagrams

Tools: Run competitive_matrix_builder.py using Phase 1 data to identify differentiators and vulnerabilities.

python scripts/competitive_matrix_builder.py competitive_data.json --format json > phase2_competitive.json

python -c "import json; d=json.load(open('phase2_competitive.json')); print('Differentiators:', d['differentiators']); print('Vulnerabilities:', d['vulnerabilities'])"

Output: Solution architecture, competitive positioning, technical differentiation strategy.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
