Stage S — Suppression Gate

Before including any contact in outreach or dial output:

• EXCLUDE if bdr_suppression_until IS SET AND bdr_suppression_until > TODAY
• INCLUDE if bdr_suppression_until IS NOT SET (never suppressed)
• INCLUDE if bdr_suppression_until < TODAY (cooling period expired)

HubSpot filter: propertyName: "bdr_suppression_until", operator: "NOT_HAS_PROPERTY" OR operator: "LT", value: TODAY_ISO Reference: lead-suppression-spec (bdr_suppressed, bdr_suppression_reason, bdr_suppression_until)

Emit Outcome Sidecar

As the final step, write to ~/.claude/skill-analytics/last-outcome-inbound-lead-qualifier.json:

{"ts":"[UTC ISO8601]","skill":"inbound-lead-qualifier","version":"1.0.0","variant":"default",
 "status":"[success|partial|error]","runtime_ms":[estimated ms from start],
 "metrics":{"leads_qualified":[n],"hot_leads":[n],"warm_leads":[n],"cold_leads":[n],"avg_icp_score":[n]},
 "error":null,"session_id":"[YYYY-MM-DD]"}

Use status "partial" if some stages failed but results were produced. Use "error" only if no output was generated.
