What it is
The Salesmotion connector already runs its twelve workflows from plain text ("account plan for Honeywell") in any MCP client. The /salesmotion skill is a convenience on top: it puts the same workflows in Claude's slash menu, so you type /salesmotion, then what you want.
It is open source and free: github.com/salesmotion/claude-skills. The workflow text is identical to what the connector uses, generated from the same source.
The skill has no data of its own. The Salesmotion connector must be enabled in the chat; the skill drives it. Set that up first: Getting started.
Install in claude.ai or Claude Desktop
- Download salesmotion-claude-skill.zip.
- In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities → Skills and upload the zip.
- In any chat with the Salesmotion connector enabled, type
/salesmotionand pick it from the menu.
Install in Claude Code
git clone https://github.com/salesmotion/claude-skills.git
cp -r claude-skills/salesmotion ~/.claude/skills/salesmotion
Or with the Vercel Skills CLI, which also installs into Cursor, Codex, and Copilot:
npx skills add salesmotion/claude-skills
Use it
/salesmotion Honeywell → one-page brief
/salesmotion account plan for Honeywell → strategic plan
/salesmotion value pyramid Honeywell → value pyramid
/salesmotion qualify the Bayer deal with MEDDIC → MEDDIC scorecard
/salesmotion who decides at Hitachi → stakeholder map
/salesmotion meeting with Jane Doe at Honeywell → meeting prep
/salesmotion email the CFO at Bayer about earnings → outreach draft
/salesmotion what's new this week → pipeline review
A bare company name gives you the brief; a person plus a company gives you meeting prep. Everything else is matched on intent — you do not need the workflow names. Not sure what to ask? Type /salesmotion on its own and it shows the menu of twelve with an example each, then asks which company.
What is inside
| File | Purpose |
|---|---|
SKILL.md | The router: matches your request to a workflow and carries the shared rules (sourced claims, no invention, labelled inference) |
workflows/*.md | The twelve workflows: which Salesmotion tools to call, in what order, and what the output must contain |
Read them on GitHub if you want to see exactly what each workflow does — or adapt them. They are MIT-licensed.
Keeping it current
When we change a workflow, the connector picks it up immediately (it is server-side). The skill zip is a snapshot; grab the latest from the GitHub releases page or this page and re-upload. The version is in the release name.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need the skill?
No. "Account plan for Honeywell" typed into a chat with the connector does the same thing. The skill is for people who like the slash menu.
Does it work in Copilot?
The connector's workflows do (they are exposed as a tool). The skill package is Claude-specific; Copilot users just type the request.
Is anything sent to Salesmotion when I install it?
No. Installing the skill only adds text instructions to your Claude. Data flows only when a workflow calls the connector, exactly as it would without the skill.
