lead-scout

lead-scout is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from spinabot/brigade. It costs 84 tokens per session (934 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for finding and checking business leads, especially businesses that do not have their own website. It defines a website as an official domain and excludes social pages, directories, and map listings.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find businesses in a chosen niche and city, verify whether each has an official website, and identify prospects for website services.
Why use it?
It reduces false leads by requiring a web search for the business name instead of assuming that a map listing proves the business has a website. It also avoids requiring an API key.

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

lead-scout 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 4d 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.

Lead Scout

Goal: a verified lead = a business that has NO website of its own, confirmed by searching for it — the use case is selling websites to businesses that don't have one. Keyless: web_search + the browser do all the work, no API key.

The rule — what counts as "having a website"

A business has a website only if it has its own site: an official domain (e.g. cafeborkar.com, artjuna.in). These do NOT count as a website:

  • Social pages — instagram.com, facebook.com
  • Aggregators / directories — zomato, swiggy, justdial, tripadvisor, magicpin, dineout
  • Its Google Maps / Google Business listing

So if searching for the business surfaces only those, it has no website → it's a lead.

Method — decide by SEARCH, never by a map button

  1. Get candidate names — web_search FIRST (don't drive Maps unless search is unavailable):
    • web_search "<niche> in <city>" returns businesses + their domains. Often this single search already answers it — a business appearing only on aggregators/social with no own domain is your lead.
    • ONLY if web_search is down/rate-limited: browser navigate to https://www.google.com/maps/search/<niche>+in+<city>, then one snapshot (snapshotFormat:"text")/evaluate to read the whole list at once (never screenshot or click each listing). scroll (to:"bottom") + snapshot again for more.
  2. Decide per business with a search — THIS is the step that determines "no website":
    • web_search "<business name> <city>". (If web_search is rate-limited, run the same query in the browser: navigate to a Bing / DuckDuckGo-html / Google results URL, then snapshot.)
    • Scan the results: is any result the business's own domain (per the rule above)?
      • Yes → it HAS a website — skip it, not a lead.
      • Only social / aggregator / Maps results → no website → it's a lead.
    • Not sure which result is theirs? Open the top non-social hit and snapshot to confirm whose site it is.
  3. Report each lead with the evidence: name, area/address + phone if found, and why it's a lead — e.g. "searched 'Cafe Borkar Panaji' — only an Instagram page and a Zomato listing came up, no own website."

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.
