| name | log-outreach |
| description | Manually log an outreach that was sent outside the plugin (e.g. a LinkedIn message, an in-person conversation, an email sent from a phone). Appends a row to crm/outreach.md without invoking any send. Use this to keep the outreach log honest as the spine of the recommendation engine. |

Log Outreach
Manual entry into the outreach log. The send-outreach skill calls this implicitly on send; this skill exists for everything that didn't go through the plugin.
Inputs
$ARGUMENTS — interactive if missing, otherwise:
--company=<name-or-slug>--contact=<name>--channel=<email|linkedin|intro|event|referral|other> (default email)--template=<template-name-or-freeform>--status=<sent|replied|meeting-booked|meeting-done|stalled|closed-won|closed-lost> (default sent)--date=<YYYY-MM-DD> (default today)--next-action=<freeform>--notes=<freeform>
Procedure
1. Resolve config + path
${CAREER_DATA_DIR}/config.json → WORKING_FOLDER. Confirm ${WORKING_FOLDER}/crm/outreach.md exists; if not, copy from the plugin template.
2. Gather missing fields
Use AskUserQuestion for any missing required fields:
- company (free text → resolve to slug)
- contact (free text)
- channel (enum)
- template (free text — for off-platform outreach the user may write a custom phrase like "linkedin DM, custom" — that's fine)
- status (enum, default
sent)
- next-action (free text)
Date defaults to today. Notes are optional.
3. Resolve company slug
If <company> is in crm/companies.md, use that slug. Otherwise:
- Compute slug from name (kebab-case).
- Append a new row to
companies.md with status engaged, last-touch today.
4. Append row
To ${WORKING_FOLDER}/crm/outreach.md:
| <date> | <company-slug> | <contact> | <channel> | <template> | <status> | <next-action> | <notes> |
Append at end of the table; never rewrite history.
5. Update CRM company row
Set crm/companies.md row's last-touch to the date.
6. Print confirmation
logged: <company-slug> / <contact> / <channel> / <status>
file: crm/outreach.md
Guardrails
- Append-only. Never edit existing rows. (Use
track-status for state changes.)
- Slug discipline — same slug across companies.md, outreach.md, and research/ dir.
- Don't infer status. If user said "I emailed them yesterday" but didn't say replied, default to
sent.
Failure modes
crm/outreach.md missing → restore from plugin template before appending.
Idempotency
- Re-running with same args creates a duplicate row (this is correct — multiple outreach attempts to same contact are different events).
- If the user wants to update an existing row, use
track-status instead.
