Directory Research Planner

Purpose

Turn an ICP or research goal into a plan for finding and scraping suitable directories.

When to use this skill

  • Planning where to source a new list
  • Translating an ICP into search queries
  • Choosing the right directory types
  • Scoping a scraping project before starting

When not to use this skill

  • You already have your source list
  • You need the data extracted now (this plans, it does not scrape)
  • Your audience is not present in public directories

Required inputs

  • An ICP or research goal

Optional inputs

  • Known good sources
  • Geographies to focus on
  • Fields you must collect

Rules

  1. Tie every recommendation to the stated ICP/goal.
  2. Suggest public, accessible source types.
  3. Make inclusion and exclusion criteria explicit.
  4. Recommend an efficient extraction order.
  5. Note assumptions where the goal is vague.

Process

  1. Parse the ICP or goal.
  2. Identify directory and source types.
  3. Draft search queries.
  4. Define fields and inclusion/exclusion criteria.
  5. Recommend an extraction workflow.

Output format

Return a sourcing plan with the following fields:

  • directory_types
  • suggested_source_categories
  • search_queries
  • fields_to_collect
  • inclusion_criteria
  • exclusion_criteria
  • recommended_extraction_workflow

Validation

  • Confirm sources match the ICP.
  • Confirm criteria are explicit and testable.
  • Confirm the workflow is actionable.

Limitations

  • It plans sources; it does not verify they exist.
  • Some audiences are not well represented in public directories.
