engine-outreach

engine-outreach is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from benyki/gtm-engine. It costs 119 tokens per session (6,745 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A research and writing workflow for personalised cold-email drafts. Cold outreach means contacting people who have not asked to hear from you; the workflow uses audience lists and background research but never sends the messages.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to turn a CSV, spreadsheet, pasted list, screenshot, or CRM export into specific email drafts, while recording the work for later outreach analysis.
Why use it?
It helps avoid generic emails and keeps sending under human control. The resulting drafts can be reviewed before anyone sends them.

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 B, and why

engine-outreach scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 1mo ago.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 447 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

engine-outreach

Writes outreach worth reading, one person at a time, and stops at the draft.

This skill runs any engine folder of type outreach. The default folder is outreach/; paths below (inputs/audience/, crm.csv, templates/, runs/) are inside that folder, while brand, accounts and keys live in shared/. Multiple outreach engines are a normal shape — outreach/ for customers and outreach-investors/ for fundraising are two independent folders with their own CRMs, templates, experiments and metrics — scaffold one with --merge --engine <name>:outreach, or copy a folder and empty its runs/, reports/ and crm.csv (history belongs to the original).

It never sends. Not with permission, not "just this once". Drafts land in the user's own mail system and a human clicks send. Everything downstream — the CRM, the A/B verdicts, the report — assumes that boundary holds.

No email template ships with this repo, and that's deliberate. What makes a cold email work is specific to what the user sells, who they're writing to and what that industry finds normal — a generic template with placeholders produces generic email. The first template is written with the user, and assign_arm.py returns write_template on an empty folder to say so.

How (not just what):

Step Reference
Where the list comes from, and finding the addresses references/lead-sourcing.md
Researching a person in the browser references/browser-research.md
Writing the first email with the user references/first-touch.md
Cut the slop — every draft, every run references/anti-slop-writing.md
Replies and follow-ups (optional) references/followups.md
Sending domain, volume, deliverability references/advanced.md

Paths in this file: shared/… means the gtm home (~/gtm by default, or $GTM_HOME); templates/, inputs/, runs/ and reports/ mean the engine folder you're running, wherever it lives. The scripts resolve both through ~/gtm/engines.json, so read them as names rather than literal paths.

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.
