Fetch Signals

The /linkt-signals skill fetches recent business signals from your configured monitoring tasks, enriches company data, and identifies relevant contacts—giving you timely opportunities for outreach.

Purpose

Business signals indicate buying intent or organizational change:

A company announces AI initiatives (technology adoption)
A startup raises funding (budget availability)
A team is hiring aggressively (growth phase)
Leadership changes occur (new decision makers)

The signals skill surfaces these events with actionable contact information, enabling timely, relevant outreach.

3. Enrich companies

For each signal, Claude looks up company details including size, industry, and recent activity.

4. Find contacts

Claude identifies relevant contacts at each company based on your targeting criteria.

5. Display results

Results are formatted with signal context, company information, and contact details.
