When a founder needs to write cold emails or LinkedIn messages to prospects, partners, or investors. Activate when the user mentions cold email, outbound, prospecting, LinkedIn outreach, or needs help getting replies from people who don't know them.

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

# Cold Outreach

## When to Use
Activate when a founder needs to write cold emails or LinkedIn messages to prospects, potential customers, investors, or strategic contacts. Also use when the user says "nobody replies to my emails," "how do I reach out to X," "write me a cold email," or "help with outbound."

## Context Required
From `startup-context` or the user:
- **Target prospect** — Name, role, company, and why them specifically
- **Research signals** — Recent news (funding, launches, hires), LinkedIn activity, company growth data, or role/industry context
- **Sender positioning** — Who you are, what you offer, your unique credibility
- **Platform** — Email, LinkedIn, or both
- **Batch size** — Single prospect or multi-prospect campaign

Work with whatever the user provides. A strong research signal and clear value prop is enough to draft. Note what would strengthen the message but do not block on missing inputs.

## Workflow
1. **Gather context** — Read startup-context if available. Ask for missing info on prospect, value prop, and proof points.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add maudeunfledged834/startup-founder-skills/cold-outreach@sha256:cceed6b216ca6183

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260403.b0c6483, 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.
