All notable changes to this repo are documented here. Format loosely follows Keep a Changelog.
No skill count change (still 41: 23 stage + 10 initiative + 8
intelligence). Retrofitted all 41 skills to the current prompt shape in 9
batches: bant, improve-demo, deep-discovery; meddicc, meddpicc,
faint, sandler, challenger; pain-finder, next-step-commitment,
sell-the-dream, first-call-rampup; persona-based-discovery,
technical-discovery, meeting-to-qualify, sql-to-qualify,
qualify-to-poc; poc-success, pilot-to-conversion,
negotiation-closing, new-business-registration,
end-client-registration; churn-prevention, customer-success,
upsell-expansion, onboarding-journey; prospect-pipeline-check,
qualify-pipeline-check, evaluation-pipeline-check, deal-risk-digest;
poc-pilot-pipeline-check, negotiation-pipeline-check,
won-pipeline-check; mutual-action-plan, champion-tracker,
deal-highlights, follow-up-email-drafter; win-loss-brief,
executive-briefing, competitor-battlecard, adoption-leaderboard.
Documented the
gtm-context.md convention and closed the remaining skill gaps. Added
illustrative self-authored evals (not Tier 3, see evals/SCORECARD.md)
for the last skills still missing them, completing illustrative eval
coverage across all three shapes (A, B, C) for all 41 skills.
No skill count change (still 41: 23 stage + 10 initiative + 8
intelligence). Removed README's "Coverage" table (duplicated the Available
skills table's Stage/Initiative info with no added signal); "Where this
stops" moved down to sit right above FAQ. check-docs-sync.sh and its
fixture tests updated to match (one fewer check, one fewer test case).
No skill count change (still 41: 23 stage + 10 initiative + 8
intelligence). Added illustrative self-authored evals (not Tier 3, see
evals/SCORECARD.md) for the 8 remaining Shape B (CSV pipeline-sweep)
skills: evaluation-pipeline-check, negotiation-pipeline-check,
prospect-pipeline-check, qualify-pipeline-check,
poc-pilot-pipeline-check, won-pipeline-check,
end-client-registration, new-business-registration. Reworked README's
"See it work" section to cover all three output shapes (transcript-audit,
CSV pipeline-sweep, document-writer) with real isolated runs and a
generalized "try any skill" instruction.
41 Agent Skills (up from 32 at 2.1.0), 23 stage + 10 initiative + 8 intelligence.
New intelligence dimension (8, all new): mutual-action-plan,
deal-risk-digest, deal-highlights, follow-up-email-drafter,
win-loss-brief, executive-briefing, champion-tracker,
competitor-battlecard. These write something forward (a plan, a digest, a
drafted email) instead of grading a call against a rubric, so neither
stage nor initiative fit — see MAINTAINING.md's "Two dimensions" for
the frontmatter contract and the Coverage-table exemption they get.
New initiative skill (1): sell-the-dream, anchored on Andy Raskin's
publicly published "5 Elements of a Great Sales Narrative" (no canonical
"sell the dream" framework exists — see the skill's provenance note).
Also lands the Tier 0 eval framework (evals/framework/*, isolated
RUN/GAP/LEARN stages, judge.py never sees SKILL.md) and evals/gt-web/, a
web-sourced ground-truth mechanism using real published call critiques in
place of hand-labeled transcripts, since Tier 3 gold-label recall stays
blocked on having no in-house labeler. Four illustrative self-authored
evals (meddicc, challenger, deal-risk-digest, champion-tracker) ship
labeled explicitly as not Tier 3.
32 Agent Skills (up from 29 at 2.0.0), 23 stage + 9 initiative.
New stage skills (3): poc-success (a completed POC/pilot's exit
review — success criteria verdicts, end-user validation, sponsor sign-off,
production-readiness blockers), new-business-registration (a new-logo
deal-registration record for completeness), end-client-registration (a
partner/reseller's end-client deal registration, kept distinct from direct
pipeline).
Also: README's "How these fit together" skill map moved off a Mermaid/d2 diagram to a plain ASCII flowchart in a fenced code block — the rendered image scaled down to unreadable at README width; the fixed-width text version doesn't have that failure mode.
29 Agent Skills (up from 16 at 1.0.0), 20 stage + 9 initiative, plus the
process this repo now ships work through: ROADMAP.md tracks what's built
and what's next, work lands on dev and ships to main in batched,
fully-gated releases (this entry is the first one cut that way).
New initiative skills (4): meddpicc, faint, sandler, challenger.
New stage skills (9): sql-to-qualify, qualify-to-poc,
persona-based-discovery, and the deal-stage pipeline-check family —
prospect-pipeline-check, qualify-pipeline-check,
evaluation-pipeline-check, poc-pilot-pipeline-check,
negotiation-pipeline-check, won-pipeline-check. The pipeline-check six
are a new input class for this repo: no transcript mode, they read a .csv
deal export and flag deals that can't pass their own stage's exit test,
citing the column and cell value behind every flag.
Also ships:
ROADMAP.md— every phase-1 skill tracked as a checkbox, machine-checked againstskills/*/byscripts/check-docs-sync.sh'sroadmap-in-syncrule so this file can't silently drift the way this changelog once did.devas the integration branch for skill PRs;mainonly moves in batched, fully-validated releases via the newgtm-releaseskill.scripts/check-pr-diff-identity.py— scans every PR's actual diff for the operator's own git identity or a home-directory path right aftergh pr create, since the PR is already public by the time a pre-push gate could catch it.
16 Agent Skills across two axes — deal stage and cross-stage initiative — each auditing a transcript or CRM export against a GTM rubric with a quote or timestamp behind every finding.
Stage (11): deep-discovery, meeting-to-qualify, technical-discovery,
improve-demo, pilot-to-conversion, negotiation-closing,
first-call-rampup, onboarding-journey, customer-success,
churn-prevention, upsell-expansion.
Initiative (5): meddicc, bant, pain-finder, next-step-commitment,
adoption-leaderboard.
A third axis, vertical-context (industry reference packs for
cybersecurity, healthcare, fintech), was built but held back from this
release pending domain-expert review — see the vertical-context branch.
Also ships:
validate-skills.sh,scripts/check-docs-sync.sh,scripts/scan-content.py— zero-dependency local checks, all three run in CI on every PR, backed by a fixture test suite (tests/run-checks-tests.sh) that proves each one actually catches what it claims to.- A Claude Code plugin (
/plugin marketplace add zime-ai/zime-gtm-skills), alongside clone-and-copy and git-submodule install paths. EVALS.md's three-tier eval methodology, and a worked example comparing a skill-aided run against an unaided one.CONTRIBUTING.md/MAINTAINING.mddocumenting the full skill-authoring, review, and landing process, and the IP boundary on what's fair to draw from Zime's own product.
