borrower-prospect-research

borrower-prospect-research is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from microsoft/cat-agent-skills. It costs 139 tokens per session (3,017 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A sourced background brief on a commercial borrower or potential borrower, based on public records. It identifies the legal entity, where it is registered, when information was retrieved, and what the searches cannot prove.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to research a company's ownership, registration, and other public-record facts before a lending or relationship review.
Why use it?
It reduces confusion between similarly named companies and makes the limits of public-record research clear. It does not make a credit decision or replace formal checks such as sanctions screening.

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

borrower-prospect-research 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.

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.

Borrower & Prospect Research Brief

Assemble what the public record says about a company, with the limits of each search stated.

Scope

Do: resolve the legal entity, gather public-record facts, cite each one with its jurisdiction and retrieval date, and state what each search does and does not establish.

Do not: score, rate, pre-qualify, opine on credit appetite, or characterise the company as a good or bad credit. See the credit-decision gate in references/house-rules.md.

This brief is research input. It is not a credit bureau report, not a formal lien search, and not a sanctions, PEP, or adverse-media screen — those obligations are met through the bank's own processes.

When NOT to Use

  • Spreading financial statements — use financial-statement-spread instead.
  • Meeting agenda or call prep built from relationship history — use rm-call-prep-followup instead.
  • Formatting or restyling an existing document — use docx instead.

Quick Start

For "run background on this borrower", resolve the legal entity before collecting records; cite exact searches and limits; if the name is ambiguous, ask instead of choosing a match.

Tool routing

  1. Check actual connector availability; use GetPluginConfig when an expected plugin capability is missing. Do not assume a named vendor or optional Finance skill is connected.
  2. For Microsoft 365 record sets use ExecuteSql; for topic/content discovery use SearchM365. Read located files with ReadFileContent (full for supported document text; download for exact bytes or spreadsheets). Scope reads to the borrower, purpose, and permissions.
  3. Use available configured connector tools for their documented fields. If none supply an item, follow the existing source order and retain the correct gap marker; never claim a tool ran when it did not.
  4. Delegate file construction to xlsx, docx, or pptx as specified below. Inline output is an inline draft, not a saved file. Report a save only from the action tool's successful result.

What ships with it

3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
