AI Lead Generation & Prospect Finder

Generates ideal customer profiles (ICP), lead acquisition strategies, LinkedIn and Google search formulas, structured lead lists, and cold outreach connectio...

Security Scan

The skill is an instruction-only lead-generation template generator that requests only user inputs and contains no installs, credentials, or external endpoints — its declared purpose matches what it actually does.

Purpose & Capability

The name/description (lead generation, ICP, search strings, templates) aligns with the provided files (SKILL.md, prompt.txt, README, config). No unrelated credentials, binaries, or system paths are requested. The outputs (Boolean strings, X-Ray queries, CSV/Sheets export templates) match the stated purpose.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md/prompt specify only generation of templates, queries, scoring rubrics, and example rows from user-provided inputs. There are no instructions to read files, environment variables, local config, or to call external network endpoints or run commands. The skill explicitly states it does not scrape live contact data and tells users to verify contacts and comply with privacy laws.

Install Mechanism

There is no install spec and no code files to execute — the skill is instruction-only. This minimizes risk since nothing will be downloaded or written to disk by the skill itself.

Credentials

The skill declares no required environment variables, credentials, or config paths. The manifest output_format mentions export options (csv, notion, google_sheets) but the skill does not request or store credentials for those services.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false and disable-model-invocation is false (normal). The skill does not request persistent privileges or modify other skills or system-wide settings. It is user-invocable only.

Assessment

This skill appears low-risk and does what it says: generate ICPs, Boolean strings, X-Ray queries, and lead-list templates from the inputs you provide. Before you use outputs: 1) do not paste or share sensitive customer PII into prompts; 2) verify contact information manually and obey GDPR/CCPA and LinkedIn Terms before outreach; 3) be cautious if you link this to other skills/tools that send emails or scrape data (those tools may require credentials and have higher risk); 4) review any connected skill (e.g., the AI Cold Email & LinkedIn Outreach Generator) to see what permissions or credentials it asks for before connecting them.

Generate a complete B2B lead generation playbook in minutes — ideal customer profiles, LinkedIn Boolean search strings, Google X-Ray queries, structured lead list templates, and cold outreach connection tips. Built for founders, SDRs, and growth teams who need a pipeline fast.
