Rank companies or accounts by strategic relevance and opportunity with a clear rationale.

Version 1.0 Updated June 2026 SKILL.md MIT 6 min read

Overview

What this skill does

With more accounts than capacity, the question is not who is a fit but who to work first — and that ordering is easy to get wrong by gut feel.

This skill ranks accounts by strategic relevance and opportunity, assigns a priority score and tier, explains the opportunity rationale with evidence, flags risks, and recommends a next action so effort flows to the best accounts.

When to use it

Best used for

  • Sequencing outreach across many accounts
  • Building tiered account lists
  • Focusing limited capacity on the best opportunities
  • Justifying account priority to a team

Know the limits

When not to use this skill

  • Accounts are not yet qualified for fit
  • You have no relevance or opportunity signal
  • You need contact-level routing (use Persona Classification)

Inputs

Provide these when prompted. The skill asks for anything missing before it runs.

Required

  • A set of accounts
  • Prioritization criteria

Optional

  • Opportunity signals (intent, growth)
  • Strategic weighting
  • Capacity constraints

Outputs

One record per account with a consistent, inspectable schema.

  • priority_score

    A 0–100 priority score.

  • priority_tier

    Tier (e.g. A/B/C) from the score.

  • supporting_evidence

    Evidence behind the priority.

  • opportunity_rationale

    Why the account is an opportunity.

  • risks

    Reasons the priority could be lower.

  • next_action

    The recommended first move.

Example

Example

One account prioritized.

Input

Criteria: ICP fit + growth signals.
Account: Lumen Robotics — high fit; hiring engineers; recent funding.

Output

priority_score: 91
priority_tier: A
supporting_evidence: High ICP fit; hiring; recent funding
opportunity_rationale: Growth + budget signals align with our offer
risks: Incumbent tool may be entrenched
next_action: Multi-thread outreach to platform leadership

Strong fit plus growth signals put this in Tier A with a concrete first move, while the incumbent-tool risk is noted for the pitch.

Required inputs

  • A set of accounts
  • Prioritization criteria

Optional inputs

  • Opportunity signals (intent, growth)
  • Strategic weighting
  • Capacity constraints

Rules

  1. Rank against the supplied criteria and signals.
  2. Use evidence; do not invent intent or growth signals.
  3. Make tiers consistent with scores.
  4. Flag risks that temper the priority.
  5. Recommend a concrete next action.

Process

  1. Parse prioritization criteria and signals.
  2. Score each account for relevance and opportunity.
  3. Assign a tier.
  4. Explain rationale and risks.

Questions

Agent Skill FAQ

What signals does it prioritize on?
Strategic relevance and opportunity signals present in your account data. Without a relevance or opportunity signal it cannot rank meaningfully — qualify for fit first.
How is this different from qualification?
Qualification decides if an account fits; prioritization decides the order to work fitting accounts based on opportunity.
Do I need ProfileSpider to use this skill?
No. The skill works on any compatible data. ProfileSpider is one convenient way to produce that structured input.
Does running this skill send data to ProfileSpider?
No. Downloading or copying the file does not send any data to ProfileSpider. What happens afterward depends on the AI service you load it into.
Are Agent Skills the same as prompts?
No. A skill is a structured, reusable package — task, inputs, rules, process, and output format — so the workflow runs consistently and can be shared, versioned, and edited.
