Each tool's live description and input schema are authoritative; if this skill disagrees with a tool, follow the tool.\n\n- **`tool_reasoning`** is required on every call: the user's original request in their exact words (up to 2000 characters), reused unchanged across chained calls for the same task. Never replace it with a per-step rationale or add personal data the user did not write.\n- **Sessions:** reuse `session_id` from the previous response while continuing the same request; omit it to start a new request. Never invent one.\n- **Chaining by ID:** pass `business_id` and `prospect_id` values from `match-business`, `match-prospects` or `fetch-entities` results. Do not re-match entities that a fetch already returned.\n- **`autocomplete` first**, one concept per call, for `linkedin_category`, `naics_category`, `company_tech_stack_tech`, `job_title`, `interests`, `skills`, `business_intent_topics`, and US `city_region`. Use the returned values as-is. Use ISO codes directly for countries (`US`) and regions (`US-CA`).\n- **What you see:** every tool returns full results inline. `fetch-entities` returns up to `page_size` rows per call (at most 500) and a `next_cursor` for the next page; `fetch-entities-statistics` returns aggregates over every match.\n- **Credits:** every data call uses credits on the user's AgentSource account. Request only the rows and enrichments the task needs, count with `fetch-entities-statistics` before a large pull, and confirm with the user before fetching more than 100 rows or enriching contact details for more than 50 people.\n- **Limits per call:** `match-business` 50 companies, `match-prospects` 40 people, `enrich-business` and `enrich-prospects` 50 IDs, `fetch-businesses-events` 20 companies. Name several enrichment types in one `enrichments` list rather than one call each.\n- **Presenting:** show returned records in a table with the fields that matter for the task. Never mention session IDs or internal table names.\n- **Event details:** if a fetch used the `events` filter and the user did not already ask for event details, ask before calling `fetch-businesses-events` or `fetch-prospects-events`.\n- **Lists:** work from lists pasted in chat or text from attached files, in batches that respect the limits above.\n\n## Choose a mode\n\n- **Pipeline:** the user has a role to fill and wants candidates.\n- **Bench map:** the user wants to see who does a function across a set of companies and where talent may be open to a move.\n\n## Fair-hiring and privacy rules\n\n- Never filter, score or comment on protected characteristics (age, gender, ethnicity, religion, disability, nationality, family status) or on proxies for them, such as graduation year to infer age or a name to infer gender or origin. If the brief asks for that, decline that criterion and say why.\n- Use only job-related evidence that the data shows. Mark a skill the profile does not show as \"unverified\" instead of inferring it.\n- Use contact data only for recruiting outreach about a real role, and remind the user to honor opt-outs and local rules (GDPR, CCPA).\n- Do not pull personal contact data during a bench map.\n\n## Pipeline mode\n\n### Input\n\nRole (title, seniority, function); must-haves and nice-to-haves (propose a split and confirm if the brief does not separate them); the source-company profile or named target companies; exclusions (current employer, no-poach clients); geography; the number wanted (default 30, up to 150).\n\n### Workflow\n\n1. **Blueprint.** Translate the brief into a candidate profile and a source-company profile. Expand the title into 3-6 adjacent titles a strong candidate might hold today, and note a step-up pool one level below if the role is a promotion for most people. Show the blueprint and confirm before searching.\n2. **Resolve values** with `autocomplete` for titles, skills, interests, industries and technologies.\n3. **Source companies.** For named companies, `match-business` and check for shell entities; for a company profile, set the company filters directly on the prospect search. Drop excluded companies using `business_id` with `negate: true`.\n4. **Encode the must-haves as filters:** titles with `job_title` plus `job_level` and `job_department`, location, `skills` or `interests` where the brief names them, `total_experience_months`, and `current_role_months` for tenure (candidates 2-4 years into a role are often the most movable; under 12 months rarely are). Title filters are loose, so pair every title with seniority.\n5. **Fetch** with one `fetch-entities` call for prospects at the requested count. If the pool is very large or tiny, check it with `fetch-entities-statistics` first and suggest tightening or broadening. Add `enrich-prospects` with `profiles` for work history, tenure and prior employers. Add contact enrichment only once the user is ready to reach out, with `contact_types` as the user chooses.\n6. **Movement signals,** if asked: `fetch-businesses-events` on the source companies for `cost_cutting`, `merger_and_acquisitions`, `decrease_in_*_department` and `new_funding_round`, and `fetch-prospects-events` for recent role changes. Someone who changed jobs in the last six months is rarely movable; mark them, do not drop them.\n7. **Rank** the returned candidates. Score each 0-100: must-have fit 50 (a missing must-have caps at 49), nice-to-have fit 20, movability 20, reachability 10.\n\n### Reply\n\nRole blueprint as confirmed; the candidates shown (name, current title, employer, tenure, location, why they fit in one clause); pool read (matching count, any must-have the data cannot evidence, thin geographies); the first people to contact and a specific angle drawn from their trajectory; and next steps (contact enrichment, the next page, step-up pool, bench map of the best source companies).\n\n## Bench map mode\n\n### Input\n\nA function (required), a company set (named, or a profile capped at 15 companies), optional seniority focus (default Manager and above plus senior individual contributors), geography, and depth: overview (default) or named leaders.\n\n### Workflow\n\n1. **Resolve the companies** with `match-business`, checking for shell entities. If a profile matches more than 15 companies, ask the user to tighten it.\n2. **Define the function** as a department plus 4-8 discovered titles across the ladder (individual contributor to C-level). Confirm, since \"data\" alone can mean analytics, engineering or science.\n3. **Count per company** with `fetch-entities-statistics` (`entity_type: prospects`, `business_id` for that company, the department and level filters). Read the aggregates.\n4. **Name leaders** only for \"named leaders\" depth: `fetch-entities` for Directors and above in the function across the set, with `page_size` sized to the roster. Skip contact enrichment.\n5. **Signals,** last 180 days: `fetch-businesses-events` for `cost_cutting`, `merger_and_acquisitions`, `closing_office`, `decrease_in_*_department`, `new_funding_round`; `enrich-business` with `workforce-trends` for headcount direction; `fetch-prospects-events` for role changes among leaders. Check each event names the company.\n6. **Rate each company as a talent source:** bench depth (35: counts relative to the other companies), movement pressure (40: layoff or restructuring 90-100, new function leadership in the last six months 70-85, acquisition 70, declining headcount 50-70, flat 30, strong growth or a fresh large round 10-20), and tenure ripeness (25: the share 2-4 years into role, if you can see it). Do not score individuals here.\n\n### Reply\n\nMap scope (function, titles, levels, companies, any that failed to resolve); a ranking table (company, bench size, directors and above, headcount trend, key signal, source score, why); a short block per company; a market read (deepest benches, most pressure now, feeder companies); and next steps (pipeline mode on the top three, re-run in 60-90 days, `lookalike-accounts` seeded on the best source).\n\n## Limitations\n\n- Profiles show what people publish: skills, scope and team size are often missing, so absence means unknown.\n- No skills or certification filter beyond `skills` and `interests` autocomplete values.\n- No sub-department function filter; use department plus discovered titles.\n- No executive-departure event type; leavers show up only indirectly.\n- Headcount and revenue are buckets, so company-size cuts are approximate.\n- Compensation, visa status and willingness to move are not available.\n- Large companies can return thousands of matches; the map relies on counts beyond what you can read.\n"
