This was built for a B2B SaaS org running a multi-channel motion. Set these to your stack:
Use whatever fit score you already trust. The quality read cross-checks it against an independent signal only if you connect one, otherwise it reports on the score you bring.

Everything the skill does, in full.
Reads your pipeline and answers three questions. Do I have enough, coverage and activity by channel against target. Who do I work next, five ranked lists of the accounts worth a touch this week, each with a reason and an angle. Is this month's pipeline any good, a quality read that scores the new-deal cohort on a composite fit score, catches the accounts your scoring got wrong, and compares this month to a trailing baseline. Run coverage and prioritization together off a weekly snapshot; run the quality read once a month.
- 1Pick the mode that matches the question. Coverage and prioritization usually run together off a snapshot. The quality read is a monthly deliverable.
- 2Mode A: pipeline coverage and activity
Do we have enough pipeline, and is it converting?
1. Coverage and health. Total pipeline created, current vs target. Pipeline by channel (Inbound, Outbound, Product, Expansion), each with current, target, variance. Coverage ratio, total pipeline over remaining target (healthy at 3x or more, concerning below 2x). Channel mix, balanced or over-reliant on one channel.
2. Activity metrics. Compare actual activity to target to find the bottleneck: accounts engaged, meetings booked, qualified leads, qualified opportunities, each current vs target vs percent to target, broken out by channel. Ask whether activity is converting to pipeline at the expected rate.
3. Stage distribution. Count accounts by stage (New, Engaged, Cold, Nurture, Disqualified) and break down by channel within each. Red flags: Cold outnumbering Engaged (a re-engagement problem), New accounts piling up without moving to Engaged (an activation problem), too many in Nurture (pipeline sitting idle).
4. Engagement velocity. How fast do New accounts become Engaged? What share of Engaged accounts reach an opportunity? Are Cold accounts being re-engaged or just accumulating?
- 3Mode B: account prioritization (the five lists)
Turn the account list into five ranked top-10 lists. Each list holds the top 10 accounts, and for each account give: account name, channel source, fit tier, status, notes, and a suggested engagement angle of one or two sentences drawn from the account's website (for product accounts, reference actual usage).
- List 1, top 10 New accounts to go after. Filter to New. Sort by account fit (Excellent to Good to Moderate), then channel diversity. Fresh accounts nobody has touched, best-fit first.
- List 2, top 10 Cold accounts to re-engage. Filter to Cold. Sort by fit, then how recently they went cold. They showed interest then fell off, re-engagement beats cold outreach because context exists.
- List 3, top 10 Inbound accounts to prioritize. Filter to Inbound. Sort by fit, then stage (Engaged to New to Cold). They raised their hand, best-fit first maximizes conversion.
- List 4, top 10 Outbound accounts to prioritize. Filter to Outbound. Sort by fit, then stage (New to Engaged to Cold). Outbound costs more effort per account, spend it on the highest-fit accounts.
- List 5, top 10 Product accounts to prioritize. Filter to Product. Sort by both product fit and account fit (a great product fit with poor company fit is still a poor bet). These accounts already use your product, the angle is expansion, reference real usage.
Deterministic selector (for reproducible output off a snapshot). Filter to stage in {Engaged, New}, then sort by (1) blended fit score descending, (2) open opportunity count ascending, (3) days since last activity ascending. Cap at three per channel so no single channel dominates. Two runs against the same snapshot produce the same top 10.
Crafting angles. Visit the account's website and write one or two sentences that reference something specific (industry, size, recent news, tech stack), connect it to a relevant value prop, and for product accounts reference which features they use and where the expansion opening is. Good: "Mid-market recruiting firm running high-volume outreach, position sequences as a way to scale candidate engagement without adding headcount." Bad: "They might benefit from us."
- 4Mode C: monthly ICP-quality read
How good is this month's pipeline? Answer three questions: is the volume real, is it good ICP, and what to keep doing vs fix. Build it from CRM ground truth, cross-scored against an independent fit signal if one is connected, compared to a trailing baseline, laid out as a leadership talking script.
Cohort. Score the new qualified-opportunity cohort for the target month (exclude renewals). Keep a parallel qualified-lead cohort to sanity-check funnel movement and catch opportunities created late-month that have not yet advanced. If your primary cohort field is inconsistently populated, fall back to created-date and document the fallback.
Channel attribution. Use one canonical channel field that rolls up to Inbound / Outbound / Product / Expansion. Do not mix in free-text or inconsistent source fields.
Composite fit scoring. Use two independent signals when available: your own account fit score, and an independent ICP verdict from a scoring tool (for example an ICP-qualification service). Grade the cohort:
- Top grade: the independent verdict is Strong, regardless of your own score.
- Mid grade: the independent verdict is Moderate, or Strong while your own score has no read.
- Off-ICP: the independent verdict is Weak or Bad at any score.
Override flags, the highest-value output. A false negative is your score Low while the independent verdict is Strong, you almost passed on a real fit. A false positive is your score High while the independent verdict is Weak or Bad, you prioritized a non-fit. Name each one at the deal level with the account and the dollar amount. If you only have one signal, say so and skip the cross-check.
Trailing baseline. Same cohort definition over the prior three months. Report per-month detail and the three-month average. Flag any anomalously low month and offer a trimmed-baseline alternative.
Deal-health overlay. For every target-month opportunity still open, compute days since it qualified, run the qualification-vs-stage gap check (see
deal-intelligence), and surface concentration risk (which rep owns more than 40% of the cohort by amount).Velocity reality-check. Compare target-month closed-won to pipeline created. If closed-won grew much slower than pipeline, flag it and note expected forward-quarter conversion (trailing win rate times cycle time).
Report structure (nine sections, in order, the leadership talking script).
- At a glance: four metric cards (pipeline, closed-won, strong-fit percent, misclassified amount).
- What the month proved: two callouts side by side, "keep doing this" and "fix this immediately," each naming specific accounts and amounts.
- Channel breakdown: one card per channel with amount, opportunity count, strong-fit count, weak/bad amount, fit alignment, average deal size, closed-won, plus a short narrative.
- Score vs independent verdict: a table of every account where the two disagree, flagged false negative or false positive, with a callout summarizing the systemic finding. This is the headline insight.
- Every opportunity ranked by composite grade: a full sortable table with override flags inline.
- Rep breakdown: per-rep cards plus a coaching callout naming the highest-leverage save or post-mortem.
- Vs trailing average: per-month detail, average row, target-month row, delta row, with a callout if velocity drops despite volume rising.
- Action plan: five to seven specific actions, each with a named owner and a due date. No abstractions.
- Methodology: cohort definition, channel attribution, scoring rules, baseline definition, and a reconciliation block if your dashboard total differs from the report total.
- Coverage claims show the ratio and the target behind them, never a bare "healthy."
- No fit claim in the monthly read without showing both signals, or a note that only one was available.
- Every false negative and false positive gets a deal-level call-out: the account, the amount, and what the disagreement means for action.
- A reconciliation block is mandatory when dashboard totals differ from the pulled totals. State the ground-truth figure first, then explain the difference.
- The baseline includes a trimmed alternative when one month had fewer than two opportunities.

The coverage bands (3x healthy, below 2x concerning), the Engaged window (14 days), the concentration cutoff (40% of the cohort by one rep), and the trailing baseline (3 months) are defaults, not laws. They suited a mid-market SaaS motion. If your cycle runs longer or your channels behave differently, re-tune them. The logic does not change. The thresholds are yours.
Where an operator takes this next.
This read is a once-a-month pull today. Here's what it looks like running on its own.
The three questions don't change month to month. What changes is how fast you get the answer.
A scheduled Claude task pulls the new-opp cohort from Salesforce and rebuilds the nine-section report before the pipeline review is even scheduled.
Connect an ICP-scoring tool so every new opportunity gets cross-scored the day it's created, and disagreements DM the deal owner in Slack.
Push the five ranked top-10 lists into Salesforce as tasks with the engagement angle attached, so "who do I work next" is answered before the rep opens their laptop.
One skill is the on-ramp.
A single skill does one job. Chained into a playbook, or run as a full build, it becomes a system. Here is where this one plugs in.
