# Consultant and Agency Skills Pack

Five installable agent skills that carry one client engagement from first call to handoff: discovery brief, scope of work, change request, client status update and project close. Each skill is a folder with a SKILL.md in the Agent Skills format, so your agent loads it when the task comes up instead of you pasting a prompt. Plus a read-only checker for any skills folder.

## 1. What this is, and how it differs from our other packs
- **Price, pitch and follow up** (pp-founder-sales) is a set of prompts for pricing a service, writing an offer and proposal, and following up with leads. Use it before the client signs.
- **Agency Open-Loop System** (pp-agency-open-loops) turns meeting notes into team commitments and gives the owner one internal weekly report of what is still open.
- **This pack** starts after the first call and lives inside the engagement: it writes the brief, the scope with its out-of-scope list, checks each new client ask against that scope, writes client-facing updates mapped to the scope's deliverables, and closes the project against each done test. No pricing prompts and no lead follow-up, so it does not repeat the other two.

Every skill follows the same three rules: use only facts from your files, write [ASK: ...] where a fact is missing, and never send, post o

## Test record

- Date: Oct 30, 2026
- What was run: The install line on a copy of the pack, a second run over an edited file, the skills-ref 0.1.1 validator on the five skills, skill_check.py from the pack text on the skills and on one planted fault per code K01 to K10. Linux, Python 3.13.5.
- Result: Install wrote identical files and kept the edit; validator found no errors; PASS on the skills; 10 of 10 planted faults caught alone; exit 2 on a missing folder; fixtures unchanged.
- Not run: The skills inside Claude Code or another agent on real client notes. Windows.

## Questions

**How is this different from Price, pitch and follow up and the Agency Open-Loop System?** Those cover pricing, proposals and lead follow-up (pp-founder-sales) and turning meetings into internal team commitments (pp-agency-open-loops). This pack covers the engagement itself: brief, scope, change requests, client updates and close.
