Output Contract

The profile using this skill produces artifact pyramids. The response to any caller is the absolute path to 00-index.md. See artifact-pyramids skill for the specification.

When not to use

• Sales execution and pipeline management — this skill owns acquisition strategy, not running the funnel. CRM operations (contact lookup, deal pipeline views, confirmed stage changes) belong to crm.
• Product strategy and roadmap — product vision, PMF, and prioritization belong to product-strategy and product-methodology.
• Visual brand identity design — logo, palette, and brand systems belong to brand-designer.
• Marketing campaign execution — this skill defines the channel strategy and positioning; operating the channel tools is the corresponding tool skill's job.
