## What it does

This skill guides contact discovery across open web sources such as LinkedIn, company websites, GitHub, and Twitter/X. It does not call paid data APIs automatically. Instead, it constructs targeted search queries, suggests where to look, and validates public findings against strict verification rules.

The skill provides query templates in `references/search-queries.md`, compliance guidelines in `references/compliance.md`, and output layouts in `references/output-templates.md`. It detects company email patterns from known addresses, assigns confidence levels, and formats records for export as CSV, JSON, vCard, or CRM files for HubSpot and Salesforce.

Without your own search tools or API subscriptions, the skill cannot pull private records on its own. It relies on publicly verifiable information and cross-referencing before saving any data field.

# Contact Hunter

Find and enrich publicly available contact information from multiple sources with full source attribution.

This skill guides the search process and organizes results. It does not directly access paid APIs; it produces structured queries, suggests where to look, then validates and formats what is found.

## Contents
- `references/search-queries.md` — per-target search briefs and reusable query patterns
- `references/output-templates.md` — data collection template, contact card, bulk CSV, email-pattern report, export formats
- `references/compliance.md` — allowed/not-allowed rules, best practices, verification steps

## Workflow

1. Identify the search type: person, company, role, email verification, or bulk enrichment.

2. Gather search parameters: name, company, job title, location, industry, LinkedIn URL, email domain, and any other identifiers.

3. Select sources to check: LinkedIn, company website (About/Team/Contact/Leadership), GitHub (developers), Twitter/X, professional directories, public databases, and any paid tools the user has access to (ZoomInfo, Apollo.io, Hunter.io, RocketReach).

4. Build the search plan using the query patterns in `references/search-queries.md`. Produce a per-target brief with LinkedIn, Google, company-website, email-pattern, and GitHub queries.

5. Detect the company email pattern from confirmed addresses, then derive candidate emails. See the email-pattern report in `references/output-templates.md`.

6. Collect and verify results. Cross-reference multiple sources and run the verification steps in `references/compliance.md` before recording any field.

7. Format output using the templates in `references/output-templates.md`: data collection template, individual contact card, or bulk CSV. Export as CSV, JSON, vCard, or CRM-specific CSV (Salesforce, HubSpot) as requested.

8. For enrichment of existing contacts, refresh: current job title, company changes, updated contact info, social profiles, company information, reporting structure, and recent activity.

## Quality bar

Ensure every contact record includes all available fields, cites its sources, carries a confidence/verification level and freshness date, follows data-privacy law, is formatted consistently, notes contact preferences, provides role context (tenure, team), flags uncertainties, and suggests verification steps. Operate only within the rules in `references/compliance.md`.

## Example triggers
- "Find the VP of Sales at Acme Corp"
```
