suede-cold-email
Suede-owned B2B cold-email discipline for evidence-based personalization, subject lines, opening lines, concise bodies, one clear CTA, and bounded follow-up sequences. Use when writing or repairing outbound email to qualified prospects. NOT FOR: building or qualifying the prospect list (use suede-prospecting), lifecycle or nurture email (use suede-emails), or broader sales collateral (use suede-sales-enablement).

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Suede Cold Email Writing Use this Suede cold-email playbook to write concise, evidence-grounded outreach that sounds human and respects the recipient. ## Before Writing **Check for product marketing context first:** If `.agents/product-marketing.md` exists (or `.claude/product-marketing.md`, or the legacy `product-marketing-context.md` filename, in older setups), read it before asking questions. Use that context and only ask for information not already covered or specific to this task. Understand the situation (ask if not provided): 1. **Who are you writing to?** — Role, company, why them specifically 2. **What do you want?** — The outcome (meeting, reply, intro, demo) 3. **What's the value?** — The specific problem you solve for people like them 4. **What's your proof?** — A result, case study, or credibility signal 5. **Any research signals?** — Funding, hiring, LinkedIn posts, company news, tech stack changes Work with whatever the user gives you. If they have a strong signal and a clear value prop, that's enough to write. Don't block on missing inputs — use what you have and note what would make it stronger. --- ## Writing Principles ### Write like a peer, not a vendor The em

Where does this skill come from?
From JasonColapietro/suede-creator-skills, a repository with 165 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
