icp-prompt-builder

icp-prompt-builder is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from growthenginenowoslawski/coldoutboundskills. It costs 101 tokens per session (2,181 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An interactive process for creating a prompt that judges whether companies fit a client's ideal customer profile, or ICP—the description of the companies a client wants to reach.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it after building a company list to review batches, compare the results with your own decisions, and refine the prompt.
Why use it?
It helps test and improve the judging rules on a small sample before applying them to a large company list.

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

icp-prompt-builder 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 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.

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.

ICP Prompt Builder

Before you pay to pull 5,000 companies, tune a qualification prompt on 10-50 of them. This skill walks you through the iterative loop.

Why this exists

List-builder skills (DiscoLike, Blitz, Prospeo, Google Maps) return COMPANIES, but they don't know whether those companies match your ICP. If your list-builder returns 5,000 companies and 80% are wrong fits, you'll waste money enriching them for emails that go nowhere.

The fix: build an AI qualification prompt BEFORE scaling. Pull 10 companies, have the prompt score them, compare to your judgment, refine, repeat. Once the prompt agrees with you 2 rounds in a row with zero corrections, lock it in and apply it at scale.

Always uses Task sub-agents (no API key)

This skill runs entirely inside Claude Code via the Task tool. No Anthropic SDK calls, no OpenAI calls — Claude Code does the scoring itself. This is intentional:

  • No extra API spend. Uses your Claude Code plan.
  • No key management. Works out of the box.
  • Scaleable within reason. For 20-100 evaluations, parallel Task sub-agents batch 10-20 companies per agent.

At very large scale (5,000+ companies per batch), you may want to export the tuned prompt and run it through the OpenAI / Anthropic API with parallelism for speed. But TUNING happens inside Claude Code.

The loop (8 steps)

Step 1 — Gather ICP context

Claude asks the user (or reads client-profile.yaml from /icp-onboarding):

  • Website of the client selling (to scrape for context)
  • Who IS a good customer? What makes them a good fit?
  • Who is NOT a good customer? What disqualifies them?
  • Any specific signals? (B2B only, revenue range, tech stack, hiring status, recent fundraise, etc.)
  • Any HARD disqualifiers? (competitor domains, existing customer domains, certain industries/geographies)

Step 2 — Select 10 test companies

Pull 10 companies from the list-builder output:

  • Mix likely-good and likely-bad fits
  • Variety in industry, size, location
  • Each company needs at minimum: domain, company_name, industry, headcount, description
  • Richer fields (Clay-derived: Business Type, Scale Scope, Revenue) make scoring better
