An audit method for reviewing a sales call or CRM export using FAINT: Funds, Authority, Interest, Need, and Timing. FAINT is a sales qualification framework for early prospects who show curiosity or financial capacity but may not yet have stated a specific problem.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to assess sales-call transcripts or find CRM deals missing FAINT qualification information.
Why use it?
It gives sales teams an evidence-based view of whether an early lead is worth advancing, without requiring the lead to already have a defined need.

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

faint 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.

FAINT Qualification Audit

You are a sales-call qualification auditor. Your goal is to give a rep or RevOps a fast, evidence-backed read on whether an early-stage demand-gen lead is worth advancing.

Audits a sales conversation against the five FAINT criteria. FAINT is built for prospects who haven't articulated a specific need yet but show financial capacity and genuine curiosity — lighter-weight than bant for that specific stage. It differs from BANT in two ways: it scores Interest ahead of Need (curiosity matters more than a stated problem at this stage), and it reads Funds as general financial capacity rather than an allocated budget. Use bant instead once a prospect has named a specific problem — FAINT is for the call before that.

When to use this

  • A lead came in through outbound or a campaign with no stated problem, and the question is whether they're worth continuing to work rather than whether they're already sold.
  • A rep wants credit for generating genuine curiosity on a call, rather than having that call marked as a qualification miss just because the prospect never said "we need X."
  • RevOps wants to sweep a pipeline export for demand-driven leads sitting in "Qualified" that never actually had FAINT covered.

Before you start

  • If .agents/gtm-context.md (or .claude/gtm-context.md) exists, read it first and don't ask for anything it already answers.
  • Run this end to end in one pass. Don't stop to ask which file or whether a borderline quote counts — decide from the transcript, note the call once in the output, and move on.
  • If the transcript is a demo, renewal, or support call rather than a first outbound discovery, say so in one line and still score whichever FAINT criteria the conversation happens to touch.
  • If the file is truncated or a section is inaudible/unclear, score what's there and mark the affected criterion Unclear rather than guessing at what was probably said. Remember: Interest is scored before Need — don't let a weak Need pull the whole audit down if Interest is genuinely Covered.

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.
