🗣 Say this to your agent

“Build a sales forecast for [period]”“Create a pipeline model for [team/business]”“Help me build a bottom-up revenue forecast”“What is our forecast for Q[N] based on current pipeline?”

What to give it

Business type — SaaS / Transactional / Services / Marketplace
Forecast period — monthly / quarterly / annual
Sales motion — inbound / outbound / channel / PLG / mixed
Current pipeline data — number of deals, stages, values — rough is fine
Historical conversion rates — if available — otherwise model will flag as assumption
Average deal size and sales cycle length

✅ The bar it holds itself to

Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.

Forecast methodology is stated (not just a number)
Stage conversion rates are based on historical data or flagged as assumptions
Coverage ratio is calculated
Three scenarios are modelled (not just one number)
Assumption log is explicit and dated
Activity sanity check confirms the forecast is achievable with current capacity

⚠️ What it refuses to do

Do not present a single forecast number without scenario analysis — a forecast without upside and downside cases hides risk
Do not use 100% confidence on conversion rates that are not backed by historical data — flag them as assumptions
Do not skip the activity sanity check — a forecast number that requires unreachable activity levels is not credible
Do not use top-down quota as the only forecast method when pipeline data exists — bottom-up is more accurate and defensible
Do not omit the coverage ratio — without it, stakeholders cannot assess whether the pipeline is sufficient to hit target
