Use when executing your B2B prospecting strategy inside Apollo.io specifically - turning an ICP into stacked Apollo search filters, building and tiering Apollo Lists, finding and verifying emails with credit discipline, tracking buying signals via Apollo filters and saved-search alerts, and running multi-step Apollo Sequences. Trigger on "Apollo", "Apollo.io", "set up Apollo filters", "Apollo saved search", "Apollo list", "Apollo sequence", "find emails in Apollo", "Apollo credits…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Prospect in Apollo.io

This is the tool-specific execution layer for the **B2B Prospecting Engine** pack. The methodology skills decide *what* to do; this skill shows you how to do it *in Apollo.io*. It assumes you have already built your ICP and personas in [[icp-persona-builder]], decided your list strategy in [[prospect-list-builder]], chosen your enrichment and verification rules in [[lead-enrichment]], picked the signals you care about in [[buying-signal-tracker]], structured your cadence in [[outreach-sequence-designer]], hardened your sending infrastructure in [[cold-email-deliverability]], and defined your funnel math in [[prospecting-metrics]].

If you have not done that work, stop and do it first. Apollo will happily let you blast a poorly-targeted list from your primary domain and torch both your deliverability and your data budget. The tool is a power amplifier, not a strategy.

Apollo changes its UI often, so this skill stays conceptual on *where* things live and concrete on *what to do and why*. When a specific menu or label is uncertain, confirm it in-product rather than trusting a click path from memory.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add skillmedev/skills/apollo-prospecting@sha256:48236a301bd96d03

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260705.a28c4ce, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
