What this skill does
Cold Email Sequence Generator Craft personalized, value-driven cold email sequences with optimal timing, A/B-tested subject lines, and integrated social proof. The goal of cold email is to start a conversation, not to close the sale in the inbox. Contents references/email-templates.md — Per-position email templates (Emails 1-7), bodies, variables, and social-proof frameworks. references/output-format.md — Delivery structure, flow-and-timing table, sending best practices. references/optimization.md — A/B testing, performance benchmarks, segmentation, pro tips, setup checklist. references/quick-start-templates.md — Vertical-specific subject-line skeletons (SaaS, agency, partnership).

Select the personalization level: Hyper-Personal (unique research per prospect), Account-Based (company-specific), Segment-Based (industry/role), or Volume (template with merge tags). 4.

Build the sequence using the per-position templates in references/email-templates.md. Vary the angle across emails: Introduction, Value Proof, Different Angle, Social Proof, Resource Share, Direct Ask, Breakup. 6. Generate A/B subject-line variations and assign send timing per email, following references/output-format.md. 7. Add personalization guidance, performance benchmarks, and optimization recommendations from references/optimization.md. 8. Assemble the final deliverable in the structure defined in references/output-format.md. Core Rules Always personalize the first line with something specific about the prospect or their company. …
