Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00053 | $0.01638 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00026 | $0.00819 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00328 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00164 |
Grade A, and why
cold-outreach 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 12d 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to cold-outreach — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 117 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Cold Outreach
When to Use
Activate when a founder needs to write cold emails or LinkedIn messages to prospects, potential customers, investors, or strategic contacts. Also use when the user says "nobody replies to my emails," "how do I reach out to X," "write me a cold email," or "help with outbound."
Context Required
From startup-context or the user:
- Target prospect — Name, role, company, and why them specifically
- Research signals — Recent news (funding, launches, hires), LinkedIn activity, company growth data, or role/industry context
- Sender positioning — Who you are, what you offer, your unique credibility
- Platform — Email, LinkedIn, or both
- Batch size — Single prospect or multi-prospect campaign
Work with whatever the user provides. A strong research signal and clear value prop is enough to draft. Note what would strengthen the message but do not block on missing inputs.
Workflow
- Gather context — Read startup-context if available. Ask for missing info on prospect, value prop, and proof points.
- Research the prospect — Conduct web searches for recent signals. The core principle: 10 minutes of research transforms a cold message into a warm one. Rank signals by strength:
- Tier 1 (strongest): Recent news — funding rounds, product launches, key hires
- Tier 2: LinkedIn activity — posts, comments, job changes
- Tier 3: Company growth signals — hiring trends, tech stack changes
- Tier 4 (weakest): Role/industry awareness only
- Assign personalization tier — Based on research signals found:
- Tier 1 (custom): Named signals across multiple research sources — fully personalized message
- Tier 2 (templated + personalized): Company info and role context — template with personalized elements
- Tier 3 (volume template): No signals found — use volume approach with strong value prop
- Select mode based on scope:
- Quick: Single connection request + follow-up for one prospect
- Standard: Four-touch sequence for a prospect (default)
- Deep: Multi-prospect system with A/B variant messages
- Draft the sequence — Write messages following the structure and rules below.
- Self-critique pass — Before delivering, validate that personalization connects to the problem. If you remove the personalized opening and the message still makes sense, the personalization is not working. Rewrite.
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.
