outreach-draft

outreach-draft is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from msolecki/founder-os. It costs 38 tokens per session (2,797 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A draft for a first-contact or follow-up message based on a prospect's problem. It uses the deal history, target-customer definition, offer, and the founder's writing examples.

In plain words
What is it for?
Writing outreach when a deal needs a next action, following up after a conversation goes quiet, checking that the prospect fits the target customer, and avoiding repeated or irrelevant messages.
Why use it?
It avoids messages that mainly describe the sender or ask for a vague response such as "just checking in." The result gives the prospect a clear reason the conversation may matter.

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

outreach-draft 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 5d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 217 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Outreach Draft

The founder's outreach fails for one reason: it is about the founder. It opens with who they are, describes what they do, and asks the prospect to work out whether any of it is relevant to them. The prospect does not do that work. They do not do it for anyone.

The second reason is "just checking in" — a message that asks the recipient to invent a reason for the conversation on the founder's behalf. Its reply rate is why the founder believes their market is cold. The market is fine. The message was empty.

When to use

When pipeline-review produced a next action that is an outreach. When a deal has gone quiet and the founder wants to follow up. When the founder is about to send something at 11pm because a prospect crossed their mind.

Inputs

Read first, in order — house rule 1:

  • pipeline.md — this prospect: what has already been sent, when, and what they said. Repeating an angle they already ignored is worse than silence.

  • offer.md — the ICP and the trigger. If this prospect does not fit the ICP, say so before drafting a word.

  • voice.mdread this before you write a sentence, not after. ## Samples is the founder's actual sent mail; ## Tells is what makes it recognisably theirs; ## Never is the phrase list that gets a message deleted on sight; ## Register says how cold outreach differs from a mail to a client of two years — this is the coldest register in the file and the least forgiving of a wrong one.

    If ## Samples is empty, say so out loud in the handoff — "no voice samples on record; this is written in a default register and will read like it" — and hand the founder voice-capture (Brand Editor). Drafting silently on an empty voice file is how a message that is correct about the prospect still reads like every other automated email in the inbox. Do not reconstruct a voice from content.md, from published posts, or from the founder's description of themselves.

  • network.md — is this person already the Network Manager's? If there is no deal, they are, and cold outreach against a warm relationship burns it.

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.
