Individual skill

signal-timing

Use this skill when a signal has fired and you need to decide when and how to reach out — "when do I contact them," "is this signal still warm." Given a signal type and the date it fired, it returns the outreach window, when it goes cold, the cadence, channel order, and a one-line angle.

Read excerpt

An agent that turns a fired signal into a timing plan. Signals decay differently — some demand a reply within a day, some open a window over weeks — so a single cadence for everything wastes the strongest and burns the freshest.

## Input

- `signal_type` — the kind of trigger (e.g. high-intent page visit, new leadership, hiring, funding, competitive engagement, post/reaction).
- `fired_at` — the date the signal occurred.
- *(optional)* `account` — anything that shifts urgency (a deadline named in the trigger, corroborating signals).

## Procedure

1. **Classify the decay profile.** Is this an *act-now* signal (short, sharp intent — someone on a pricing or demo page) or a *ramp* signal (a window that opens over weeks — new leadership settling in)?
2. **Set the window** from `fired_at`: a reach-out-by date and a cold-after date. Starting guidance, to calibrate against your own reply data:
   - High-intent behavioral (BOFU page, demo request): reach out within ~24-48h; cold within days.
   - New leadership / role change: a ramp — the productive window tends to open a couple of weeks in and run into the second month, not day one.
