The purpose and workflow passages below are upstream material, organized and translated for reading. They are distinct from the separately labeled Codez editorial analysis.
What this Skill does
Research a specific person using Common Room data. Triggers on 'who is [name]', 'look up [email]', 'research [contact]', 'is [name] a warm lead', or any contact-level question.
How the upstream workflow works
Step 1: Locate the Contact
Common Room supports multiple lookup methods — use whichever the user has provided: If no match is found, respond: "Common Room doesn't have a record for this person." Do not speculate or fabricate profile data.
Upstream passage · L10 ↗Step 2: Fetch Contact Fields
Use the Common Room object catalog to see available field groups and their contents. For full profiles, request all groups. For targeted questions, request only what's relevant. Key field groups to know about: Scores — always return as raw values or percentiles, never labels Recent activity — use Contact Initiated filter (last 60 days) for their actions, not your team's
Step 3: Run Spark Enrichment (If Available)
If Spark is available, use it. Spark provides: Professional background and job history Social presence and influence signals Persona classification: Champion, Economic Buyer, Technical Evaluator, End User, or Gatekeeper
Upstream passage · L33 ↗## [Contact Name] — Profile (Limited Data)
**Data available:** [List exactly what Common Room returned]
[Present only the returned fields]
**Web Search**
[Any findings from searching their name + company]
**Note:** Common Room has limited data on this contact. No activity history, scores, or Spark profile available. I can run deeper web searches or look up their company for additional context.Requirements and setup

Limits and quality checks
Quality Standards
Lookup must use the correct method for the input type — don't guess on email vs. handle Scores as raw/percentile only — never labels
Upstream passage · L119 ↗Start with a safe trial
- Check the supported host and the repository installation instructions. Keep the Skill directory and its referenced scripts, assets and documentation together; SKILL.md alone may omit dependencies.
- Give the agent your real input, desired output and acceptance criteria. Invocation syntax and available tools depend on the host; this site does not assume a universal install command.
- Try the source workflow in a disposable project or on a copy. Review operations that change files, remote services or billable resources before allowing them.
- Validate the output against the source quality checks and your own requirements. A successful trigger or a high repository Star count does not establish a correct result.
