# Speaking

Discovers and tracks paid speaking opportunities that fit the topics you list in Config.md. FindOpportunities scrapes conference CFPs and monitors speaker pages, then updates the opportunities list; ShowOpportunities analyzes fit, prioritizes by urgency, and returns recommendations with CFP deadlines; ProposeTalks drafts talk and panel proposals to send an organizer. Paid speaking slots get filled months ahead and the good ones close their CFPs quietly; miss the deadline and the opportunity is gone for a year, so the skill watches the sources, keeps a running list, and flags what fits and what is about to close.

**Topics (the fit test for every intent):** the `## Topics` list in Config.md (§ Data & Config). An event listed under `## Excluded events` there is never tracked or recommended, whatever its fit.

**Urgency windows (every intent):** Immediate (urgent) means the CFP or submission closes within 14 days, or is rolling; High Priority means it closes in 15-30 days; Worth Watching means it closes later or the CFP is not open yet.

## Ideal State

- The tracked list holds only paid (or flagged very-high-prestige) opportunities that fit the Config.md topics, each with its CFP close date, pay tier and next action. Unpaid community meetups appear only when the user asks for them.
- Nothing closes unnoticed: deadlines inside the Immediate window surface as urgent, and past events move to the archive with their outcome instead of disappearing.
- Every recommendation is specific to its opportunity, carries its submission deadline, and carries a URL or contact to act on.
