How to add

1. New company

import pandas as pd
from datetime import date

df = pd.read_csv('$CRM_PATH/contacts/companies.csv')

# Check for duplicate
if 'example.com' in df['website'].values:
    print("Company already exists!")
else:
    new_row = {
        'company_id': 'comp-example',
        'name': 'Example Inc',
        'website': 'example.com',
        'type': 'company',
        'industry': 'Technology',
        'geo': 'USA',
        'created_date': str(date.today()),
        'last_updated': str(date.today())
    }
    df = pd.concat([df, pd.DataFrame([new_row])], ignore_index=True)
    df.to_csv('$CRM_PATH/contacts/companies.csv', index=False)

2. New contact

# First make sure the company exists!
companies = pd.read_csv('$CRM_PATH/contacts/companies.csv')
if 'comp-example' not in companies['company_id'].values:
    print("Add the company first!")

people = pd.read_csv('$CRM_PATH/contacts/people.csv')

new_person = {
    'person_id': 'p-example-001',
    'first_name': 'John',
    'last_name': 'Doe',
    'email': '[email protected]',
    'company_id': 'comp-example',
    'role': 'CEO',
    'created_date': str(date.today()),
    'last_updated': str(date.today())
}

3. New client (relationship)

# Company and product must exist!
clients = pd.read_csv('$CRM_PATH/relationships/clients.csv')

new_client = {
    'client_id': 'cli-example-001',
    'company_id': 'comp-example',
    'product_id': 'prod-labeling',
    'status': 'active',
    'contract_start': str(date.today()),
    'primary_contact_id': 'p-example-001',
    'created_date': str(date.today()),
    'last_updated': str(date.today())
}

Validation (REQUIRED!)

Before saving:

• ID is unique
• company_id exists in companies.csv (for people, relationships)
• product_id exists in products.csv (for relationships)
• person_id exists in people.csv (for primary_contact_id)
• No duplicates (check by email, website, name)
• created_date and last_updated are filled in

After changes:

• Run change-review skill before PR
