A process for building a structured Excel list of investors for a company sale, acquisition, or fundraising effort. It combines investor records with contacts, web research, and email information, then produces a branded workbook.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for preparing M&A or fundraising investor shortlists, enriching investor and contact details, and creating a two-tab Excel file with a cover page and transaction pipeline table.

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

investor-shortlist scanned grade A 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 12d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (build_shortlist.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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Skill: /investor-shortlist — Investor Shortlist Builder

Objective

Full pipeline questionnaire → multi-source research → Dropcontact + Outlook + Firecrawl enrichment → branded Excel output with transaction pipeline columns.

The output file matches a standardized M&A advisory format used for sell-side, buy-side and fundraising mandates.

Configuration is read from config.yaml in the same folder as this skill. See config.example.yaml for the schema. Important keys:

  • dropcontact.api_key (or env DROPCONTACT_API_KEY)
  • local_databases — list of Excel files to scan
  • output.default_folder — suggested save path
  • brand.* — firm name, colors, font for the cover page + table

Step 1 — Structured questionnaire (MANDATORY before any action)

Ask ALL questions below, grouped in 2-3 AskUserQuestion calls, never as bullet plain-text. If the user skips a question, re-ask with an explicit default value.

Block A — Target company & mandate

  1. Client company name (e.g. "Acme SA") + website (e.g. "acme.com")
  2. Company country: 🇨🇭 Switzerland / 🇫🇷 France / 🇲🇨 Monaco / 🇱🇺 Luxembourg / Other
  3. Mandate type:
    • Fundraise (capital growth, product development, geographic expansion)
    • M&A sell-side (full or partial sale)
    • M&A buy-side (external growth — target search)
    • Refinancing / Debt (senior, mezzanine)
    • Restructuring (capital, debt)

Block B — Target profile

  1. Sector: e.g. "Real estate / Construction", "Industrial", "Tech / SaaS", "Healthcare / MedTech", "Energy", "B2B services", etc.

  2. Sub-sector (optional): e.g. "Residential development", "B2B HR SaaS"

  3. If Fundraise → Round:

    • Pre-seed (<500k)
    • Seed (500k - 2M)
    • Series A (2-10M)
    • Series B (10-30M)
    • Series C / Growth (>30M)
    • Late stage / Pre-IPO
  4. If M&A → Valuation range: e.g. "2-10M", "10-50M", "50-200M", "200M+"

Block C — Volume & typology

  1. Number of target investors in the shortlist: 15-20 / 20-30 / 30-50 / 50+
  2. Typology (multi-select):
    • Private / HNWI / Family offices
    • Financial institutional (PE funds, VC, AM, pension funds, banks)
    • Strategic / Industrial (sector players, competitors, suppliers/customers)
    • Public / Para-public (cantonal banks, sovereign funds, foundations)
  3. Investor geography: same country as target / pan-European / global

Changes

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.
