Saber Skills

Saber Skills is an open-source GTM skills library built by Saber. It gives revenue and GTM teams 26 skills covering the full outbound motion — from market mapping and ICP extraction to native fit + urgency scoring, personalised outreach, and pipeline review.

Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, and any agent that supports skills. Most skills work without any special tools. Skills that benefit from the Saber CLI will say so — and every one of them offers a meaningful path without it.

How it works

Saber Skills covers three stages of the GTM motion:

1. Understand  →  Who is your market? Who is your buyer? What signals matter?
2. Activate    →  Build lists. Run signals. Score and prioritise accounts.
3. Engage      →  Research accounts. Write outreach. Manage deals. Sync to CRM.

Each skill is a focused prompt that guides your agent through a structured workflow. Skills hand off to each other naturally — signal-discovery feeds build-account-list, which feeds score-accounts, which feeds write-outreach.

Skills

Signal foundations

Skill	What it does
signal-discovery	Guided entry point — loads org context, runs extract-icp then generate-signals in sequence. Start here.
extract-icp	Researches a company domain and extracts a structured ICP: target profile, buying committee, pain points, buying triggers.
generate-signals	Turns a structured ICP into 12–15 weighted research signals with scoring rules across icp_fit, urgency, and buying_signal categories.

Market and persona intelligence

Skill	What it does
market-map	Maps a target market — segments, company density, key players, adjacent verticals, and recommended entry points.
persona-research	Builds a deep profile of a buying persona: motivations, challenges, buying behaviour, language they use, where to find them.
competitive-intel	Maps the competitive landscape, profiles key competitors, and builds battle cards for deals where they come up.

List building

Skill	What it does
build-account-list	Builds a target account list using Saber, Apollo, HubSpot, or manual research. Runs signals if Saber is available.
build-contact-list	Builds a target contact list using Saber, Apollo, LinkedIn, or manual research. Runs signals if Saber is available.
enrich-contacts	Finds email and phone for contacts using Apollo, Cognism, Hunter.io, or any connected enrichment provider.

Research and qualification

Skill	What it does
research-account	Builds a full account brief — signals, hiring, funding, news, tech stack, and a call prep summary.
qualify-inbound	Qualifies an inbound lead from native fit + urgency scores when Saber is available; falls back to manual scoring otherwise.

Scoring and prioritisation

Skill	What it does
extract-signal-templates	Clusters historical ad-hoc signals into reusable templates so they can be referenced by scoring rules. One-shot migration.
configure-scoring	Sets up native scoring — profile, rules, assignments. Bridges the weighted model from generate-signals into the platform.
manage-scoring	Inspects and tunes scoring — list profiles and rules, edit point values, manage assignments, recompute, debug score contributions.
score-accounts	Ranks a list by current fit + urgency scores via the Saber CLI. Falls back to client-side weighted scoring for Apollo, HubSpot, or pasted data.

Signal activation

Skill	What it does
create-company-signals	Activates company-level signal tracking via Saber subscriptions. Without CLI, outputs a research playbook.
create-contact-signals	Activates contact-level signal tracking via Saber subscriptions.
manage-signals	Lists all signal subscriptions — pause, resume, trigger, or review results.

Outreach

Skill	What it does
write-outreach	Writes personalised cold email and LinkedIn messages. Pulls signal results from Saber if available; works from any signal data.
build-sequence	Designs a multi-step outreach sequence with signal-triggered message variants across email and LinkedIn.
objection-handler	Builds an objection library for your ICP — common objections mapped to the real concern, with response frameworks.

Pipeline and deal management

Skill	What it does
deal-coaching	Analyses a specific deal — health assessment, risk flags, stakeholder map, and recommended next steps.
pipeline-review	Audits pipeline health from HubSpot or pasted data — at-risk deals, forecast analysis, and a weekly focus list.
find-expansion-accounts	Runs expansion signals against existing customers to surface upsell and cross-sell opportunities.

CRM

Skill	What it does
import-from-hubspot	Pulls a HubSpot company list, view, or segment into Saber as a target account or contact list.
sync-to-hubspot	Pushes Saber signal results back to HubSpot as contact or company properties.

Example: from ICP to prioritised pipeline

You:     signal-discovery

Saber: Loading org context...
         Running extract-icp on saber.app...

         ICP — saber.app
         TARGET COMPANY: 25–500 employees, Series A–C
         PAIN POINTS: No real-time signal layer, disconnected sales stack
         BUYING TRIGGERS: New VP Sales hired, funding round, CRM migration

         Generating signals...
         14 signals across icp_fit / urgency / buying_signal — confirmed.

You:     configure-scoring

Saber: Translating the 14-signal model into a native scoring profile...
         Profile: ICP scoring (company)
         Rules: 9 in fit, 5 in urgency
         Bulk-assigned to 340 accounts on 'EMEA SaaS'.
         Auto-trigger is on — scores will recompute as signals fire.

You:     build-account-list

Saber: No Saber CLI detected. What prospecting tools do you have available?
         → User: Apollo

         Searching Apollo: B2B SaaS, 25–500 employees, DACH...
         Found 340 matching companies. Exported to list.

You:     score-accounts

Saber: Reading native scores for 340 accounts (ICP scoring profile)...

         High priority (combined ≥ 70): 12 accounts
         (Δ shows score change since the previous compute.)
         1. Kombo — fit 86 / urgency 82 (Δ +8) — New CTO, hiring 6 SDRs
         2. Liro  — fit 78 / urgency 80 (Δ +4) — Series B 3 months ago, HubSpot migration

You:     write-outreach   [for Kombo]

Saber: Subject: saw you're scaling the sales team at Kombo

         Hi [Name], noticed Kombo brought on a new CTO last month and is
         actively hiring across the sales team — usually means the GTM motion
         is being rebuilt from scratch...

The Saber CLI

Most skills work without the Saber CLI. The CLI unlocks:

• Automated signal runs — run research questions across hundreds of accounts on a schedule
• Contact-level signals — research individuals by LinkedIn URL
• List management — create, filter, and import company and contact lists at scale
• Credit-based pricing — only pay for what you run

Install the CLI and connect it to your Saber account at saber.app. Run saber init-claude in your project to configure CLAUDE.md with your org context.

Contributing a skill

1. Create a directory under skills/ named after your skill
2. Add a SKILL.md with YAML frontmatter and the skill prompt:

---
name: my-skill
description: One-line description shown in the session header.
---

# My Skill

What Claude should do when this skill is invoked. Skills should work without
the Saber CLI where possible and offer a meaningful fallback when they can't.

3. Open a pull request — skills are picked up automatically from the skills/ directory.

See any existing skill in skills/ for reference.
