The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
2 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 1 is very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈1
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
1
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 95
Only include the CALL SPINE line for sales-shaped calls (an early-stage opportunity, a quote visit, a first conversation).
- Very specific: line 112
Read-only: Don't log or send anything as part of prepping.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Prep For Call
The operator has a call coming up and 5 minutes to get ready. Pull the whole picture — the person, the deal, the history, what was said last time, what's outstanding — and hand them the one outcome to drive. One read, walk in ready.
Step 1 — Identify the call
Resolve which call, in this order:
- "My 2pm" / "next call" / "today's call" →
mcp__trustpager__list_bookingsfor today, pick the one they mean (confirm if several).get_booking(id)for the attendee + linked opportunity. - A named person / company →
search_contacts/search_opportunitiesto find the opportunity.
The opportunity is the hub — once you have its id, everything else hangs off it. If there's genuinely no opportunity (cold first call), prep off the contact
- whatever the booking carries, and say it's a first conversation.
Step 2 — Pull the picture (parallel reads)
For the opportunity + its contact, gather:
get_opportunity(id)— stage, value, type, owner, custom fields.get_opportunity_activities(id)— the recent history (calls, emails, notes).list_transcriptsfor this deal/contact — the last call's transcript is the single most valuable input; skim it for what was promised and where it left off.get_opportunity_tasks(id)— what's open / owed to them.get_contact(id)— name, role, contact details, relationship age.get_opportunity_products(id)— what's been quoted, if anything.
Skip cleanly what isn't there; don't stall on a missing piece.
Step 3 — Hand over the brief
📞 Prep — <Contact name>, <role> @ <company> · <call time>
Deal: "<name>" — <stage>, <value> · owner: <owner>
WHO THEY ARE
<1-2 lines: role, relationship length, anything personal on record>
WHERE IT'S AT
<1-2 lines: current stage, what's been quoted, deal health>
LAST TIME (from <date> <call type>)
<what was discussed + what was promised — pulled from the last transcript/notes>
OPEN / OWED
→ <open task or commitment 1>
→ <unanswered question / thing we said we'd do>
⚠️ WATCH FOR
<any risk: gone quiet N days, overdue item they'll mention, declined quote>
🧭 CALL SPINE
<for discovery/quote/sales calls: run it on the discovery arc
(business-method.md §12.5). Pre-fill from the record: what they've tried
(from history), the arrival in THEIR words (from the last transcript), and
any concern already on the table (from the last log).>
🎯 OUTCOME TO DRIVE
<the single most useful result from this call — book next step / close / unblock>Only include the CALL SPINE line for sales-shaped calls (an early-stage opportunity, a quote visit, a first conversation); service and delivery check-ins don't get it. Clinic shapes: the arc structures logistics and care-plan conversations only, never the clinical recommendation (§12.5, §15).
End with the one outcome — not a menu. Default outcome when nothing more specific applies: the next step booked before the call ends. If useful, offer: "Want me to draft a quick agenda message to send them before the call, or pull the last proposal?"
Hard rules
- The last transcript is gold — always check for one and use what was actually said, not a generic guess at the relationship.
- Use their real data + the operator's stage/product names — never invent history or a relationship detail that isn't on record.
- One outcome, not five options. The operator has a call to walk into.
- Read-only. Don't log or send anything as part of prepping; offer the
follow-on (
/draft-reply, pull the proposal) and wait. - First-call honesty — if there's no history, say "first conversation" and prep off what little there is rather than padding.
Output shape

Does it work?
Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.
No reviews yet
People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.
- It worked
- Partly
- It didn't
Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
