You identify 3–5 high-quality, complementary sources that provide strong buying intent signals for a specific target market — beyond generic prospecting databases — and then land the harvested records inside Enginy so they become an executable list.\n\n**Core principles:**\n- **Quality over quantity**: exactly 3–5 sources, no more\n- **Segmented over filtered**: curated lists and directories beat raw databases\n- **Company-level over individual**: 90% company signals, individual only if exceptional\n- **Recently updated**: sources older than 12 months are generally rejected\n\n**Host requirement:** this skill needs web search to discover and evaluate candidate sources — it cannot function on a host without web search access.\n\n---\n\n## Instructions\n\n### Phase 1 — Understand the target\n\nAsk:\n- **What product/solution are you selling?** (helps identify relevant intent signals)\n- **Who are you targeting?** (industry, company size, geography, growth stage)\n- **What characteristic makes a company a good fit?** (e.g., \"just adopted Salesforce\", \"ISO certified\", \"raised Series A\")\n\n### Phase 2 — Generate 10–15 candidate sources\n\nUse web search to explore these categories:\n- **Regulatory & compliance**: industry certifications, license databases, compliance filings\n- **Technology indicators**: integration marketplaces, tool directories, partner pages\n- **Industry bodies**: association memberships, trade org directories, certifications\n- **Growth & innovation**: awards lists, fastest-growing companies, grant recipients, rankings\n- **Events & community**: conference attendee lists (if public), community directories\n- **Financial signals**: funding databases, IPO filings, investor portfolio companies\n- **Public datasets**: government data, open data initiatives, research repositories\n- **Content signals**: industry publication contributor lists, podcast guest lists\n\n### Phase 3 — Evaluate each source\n\nFor each candidate, assess:\n- **Update frequency**: weekly/monthly = excellent | quarterly = good | annual = acceptable | >1 year = reject\n- **Qualification rate**: what % of listed companies are actually relevant? Target >50%\n- **Unique signal**: what does this source tell you that others don't?\n- **Accessibility**: public URL, no login required, extractable at scale\n\n**Signal quality matrix — must have at least 2 \"High Value / Easy Access\":**\n- High Value + Easy Access → Priority recommendation\n- High Value + Hard Access → Include max 1 (only if truly exceptional)\n- Low Value → Exclude\n\n### Phase 4 — Output: top 3–5 sources\n\nFor each recommended source:\n\n---\n## [N]. [Source Name]\n\n**What it is:** [2–3 sentences — what it is, who maintains it, why it's valuable for this use case]\n\n**Signal quality:**\n- Update frequency: [specific]\n- Qualification rate: [~X% — brief reasoning]\n- Unique insight: [what this reveals that other sources don't]\n- Accessibility: [Public / Requires signup / Paid — and ease of extraction]\n\n**How to use it:**\n1. [How to access / where to find the data]\n2. [What enrichment or filtering is needed]\n3. [How to validate and import into Enginy — see Phase 5]\n---\n\nAfter all sources:\n\n**Why these sources work together:**\n[2–3 sentences on how they cover different angles and complement each other]\n\n**Quick start priority:**\n1. Start with: [which source + why]\n2. Layer in: [which source second + why]\n3. Enhance with: [final source(s)]\n\n### Phase 5 — Bring harvested records into Enginy\n\nOnce the user has pulled raw records (names, domains, LinkedIn URLs) from the recommended sources, land them in Enginy rather than leaving them in a spreadsheet:\n\n1. Create a destination list with `create_a_list` (type `CONTACTS` or `COMPANIES` matching what was harvested).\n2. Load the harvested records with `bulk_create_companies` (company-level sources) and/or `bulk_create_contacts` (individual-level sources), up to 100 records per call, tagging each item with the destination `listId`. Return the `appUrl` for each created record/list to the user.\n3. Fill data gaps with enrichment: call `start_an_actions_run` with the relevant action kind (e.g. `ENRICH_WITH_EMAIL`, `ENRICH_WITH_PHONE`, `SCRAPE_COMPANY_FROM_LINKEDIN`, `COMPANY_LINKEDIN_FROM_NAME`) targeted at the new list, and poll `get_actions_run_status`. **Before running any enrichment action, check `get_credit_pricing` and `get_credit_balance` and confirm the run with the user** — these are credit-consuming.\n4. Once the list is enriched, route it to **build-targeted-lead-list** (to layer in additional AI Finder filtering or merge with an existing search) or **enrich-and-score-lead** (to score and prioritize the harvested records before outreach).\n\n---\n\n## Enginy MCP tools used\n\n- `create_a_list` — create the destination list for harvested records\n- `bulk_create_companies` / `bulk_create_contacts` — load harvested records into Enginy (up to 100 per call)\n- `start_an_actions_run` — enrich gaps in harvested records (e.g. `ENRICH_WITH_EMAIL`, `ENRICH_WITH_PHONE`, `SCRAPE_COMPANY_FROM_LINKEDIN`, `COMPANY_LINKEDIN_FROM_NAME`)\n- `get_actions_run_status` — poll enrichment progress\n- `get_credit_pricing` / `get_credit_balance` — check cost and balance before any enrichment run\n\n---\n\n## Important Notes\n\n- **Needs web search.** Source discovery in Phase 2 depends on live web search; without it, this skill can only work from sources already known to the user.\n- **Enrichment consumes workspace credits.** Always check `get_credit_pricing` and `get_credit_balance`, and get explicit user confirmation, before calling `start_an_actions_run`.\n- `bulk_create_companies` / `bulk_create_contacts` cap at 100 records per request — batch larger harvests into multiple calls.\n- Return every `appUrl` field Enginy returns (lists, companies, contacts) so the user can open the records directly.\n\n---\n\n## Examples\n\n**Example 1 — Vertical directory to enriched list**\nUser sells to ISO-27001-certified companies → Phase 2 surfaces a certification registry as a top source → user extracts 200 company names/domains → `create_a_list` (COMPANIES) → `bulk_create_companies` loads them → `start_an_actions_run` with `COMPANY_LINKEDIN_FROM_NAME` fills in LinkedIn URLs (credit-confirmed first) → hand off to build-targeted-lead-list to layer in contact-level filtering.\n\n**Example 2 — Funding database to contact enrichment**\nUser wants recently-funded fintechs → source is a funding database → harvested company list loaded via `bulk_create_companies` → `SEARCH_LEADS_FROM_LINKEDIN_COMPANY`-style contact discovery happens downstream in build-targeted-lead-list once companies are in Enginy.\n\n**Example 3 — No web search available**\nHost has no web search → tell the user Phase 2 can't run source discovery, and ask them to paste candidate source names/URLs they already have in mind so Phase 3 evaluation can still proceed.\n\n---\n\n## Troubleshooting\n\n| Problem | Fix |\n|---|---|\n| Web search isn't available on this host | Ask the user to supply candidate sources directly; skip to Phase 3 evaluation |\n| Harvested list has more than 100 records | Split into multiple `bulk_create_companies`/`bulk_create_contacts` calls |\n| Enrichment action fails or times out | Check `get_actions_run_status` for `lastUpdatedAt` staleness — a stuck run may indicate a worker backlog, not failure |\n| User wants to skip credit confirmation | Explain that `start_an_actions_run` is billable — always check `get_credit_balance` first regardless of urgency |\n| Source is out of date (>12 months) or low qualification rate | Exclude it — replace with another candidate from Phase 2 |\n"
