Connections Optimizer

Reorganize the user's network instead of treating outbound as a one-way prospecting list.

This skill handles:

• X following cleanup and expansion

• LinkedIn follow and connection analysis

• review-first prune queues

• add and follow recommendations

• warm-path identification

• Apple Mail, X DM, and LinkedIn draft generation in the user's real voice

When to Activate

• the user wants to prune their X following

• the user wants to rebalance who they follow or stay connected to

• the user says "clean up my network", "who should I unfollow", "who should I follow", "who should I reconnect with"

• outreach quality depends on network structure, not just cold list generation

Required Inputs

Collect or infer:

• current priorities and active work

• target roles, industries, geos, or ecosystems

• platform selection: X, LinkedIn, or both

• do-not-touch list

• mode: light-pass, default, or aggressive

If the user does not specify a mode, use default.

Tool Requirements

Preferred

• x-api for X graph inspection and recent activity

• lead-intelligence for target discovery and warm-path ranking

• social-graph-ranker when the user wants bridge value scored independently of the broader lead workflow

• Exa / deep research for person and company enrichment

• brand-voice before drafting outbound

Fallbacks

• browser control for LinkedIn analysis and drafting

• browser control for X if API coverage is constrained

• Apple Mail or Mail.app drafting via desktop automation when email is the right channel

Safety Defaults

• default is review-first, never blind auto-pruning

• X: prune only accounts the user follows, never followers

• LinkedIn: treat 1st-degree connection removal as manual-review-first

• do not auto-send DMs, invites, or emails

• emit a ranked action plan and drafts before any apply step

Platform Rules

X

• mutuals are stickier than one-way follows

• non-follow-backs can be pruned more aggressively

• heavily inactive or disappeared accounts should surface quickly

• engagement, signal quality, and bridge value matter more than raw follower count

LinkedIn

• API-first if the user actually has LinkedIn API access

• browser workflow must work when API access is missing

• distinguish outbound follows from accepted 1st-degree connections

• outbound follows can be pruned more freely

• accepted 1st-degree connections should default to review, not auto-remove

Modes

light-pass

• prune only high-confidence low-value one-way follows

• surface the rest for review

• generate a small add/follow list

default

• balanced prune queue

• balanced keep list

• ranked add/follow queue

• draft warm intros or direct outreach where useful

aggressive

• larger prune queue

• lower tolerance for stale non-follow-backs

• still review-gated before apply

Scoring Model

Use these positive signals:

• reciprocity

• recent activity

• alignment to current priorities

• network bridge value

• role relevance

• real engagement history

• recent presence and responsiveness

Use these negative signals:

• disappeared or abandoned account

• stale one-way follow

• off-priority topic cluster

• low-value noise

• repeated non-response

• no follow-back when many better replacements exist

Mutuals and real warm-path bridges should be penalized less aggressively than one-way follows.

Workflow

• Capture priorities, do-not-touch constraints, and selected platforms.

• Pull the current following / connection inventory.

• Score prune candidates with explicit reasons.

• Score keep candidates with explicit reasons.

• Use lead-intelligence plus research surfaces to rank expansion candidates.

• Match the right channel:

X DM for warm, fast social touch points

• LinkedIn message for professional graph adjacency

• Apple Mail draft for higher-context intros or outreach

• Run brand-voice before drafting messages.

• Return a review pack before any apply step.

Outbound Rules

• Default email path is Apple Mail / Mail.app draft creation.

• Do not send automatically.

• Choose the channel based on warmth, relevance, and context depth.

• Do not force a DM when an email or no outreach is the right move.

• Drafts should sound like the user, not like automated sales copy.

Related Skills

• brand-voice for the reusable voice profile

• social-graph-ranker for the standalone bridge-scoring and warm-path math

• lead-intelligence for weighted target and warm-path discovery

• x-api for X graph access, drafting, and optional apply flows

• content-engine when the user also wants public launch content around network moves
