Build personalized cold outreach sequences for LinkedIn and email. Use when someone needs to reach prospects, warm up cold leads, or build a systematic outreach engine. Covers research, connection requests, follow-ups, and conversion.

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 Sequence

Here's what I've learned about cold outreach: the word "cold" is the problem.

Spray-and-pray templates don't work. 10 minutes of research + a specific reference = not cold anymore. This skill builds the second kind.

---

## Mode

Detect from context or ask: *"One message, full sequence, or full outreach system?"*

| Mode | What you get | Best for |
|------|-------------|----------|
| `quick` | 1 connection request + 1 follow-up for a single prospect | Testing an angle, one-off outreach |
| `standard` | Full 4-touch sequence for a single prospect | Active pipeline, individual targets |
| `deep` | Multi-prospect sequence system + A/B variants + tracking framework | Launching an outreach campaign |

**Default: `standard`** — use `quick` if they give you one name and say "draft something." Use `deep` if they're building a repeatable outreach engine.

---

## Context Loading Gates

**Before writing any message, collect:**

- [ ] **Prospect name and company** — full name, company, role/title
- [ ] **Research signals** — run tool calls first (see below); do not write without them

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add brianrwagner/ai-marketing-claude-code-skills/cold-outreach-sequence@sha256:898710bceb062a0b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260308.1c3e1fe, 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.
