Coffee Chat Playbook Generator

This skill helps you prepare for professional coffee chats by gathering intelligence on the person and generating personalized conversation guides.

Prerequisites

Before using this skill, set up the following. Only Apify CLI is required for X scraping — everything else is optional.

1. Apify CLI (required for X/Twitter scraping)

Apify CLI is used to run the tweet scraper actor.

Install:

npm install -g apify-cli

Authenticate:

apify login
# Paste your Apify API token when prompted
# Get your token at: https://console.apify.com/account/integrations

Verify:

apify info
# Should show your username and token

Free tier includes $5/month of compute credits. Scraping 10 tweets costs ~$0.004, well within free limits.

2. Notion Integration (optional — for saving playbooks to Notion)

Create an integration:

1. Go to https://www.notion.so/my-integrations
2. Click "New integration"
3. Give it a name (e.g. "Coffee Chat Skill")
4. Copy the Internal Integration Token

Set the API key:

export NOTION_API_KEY="secret_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"
# Add to your shell profile to persist:
echo 'export NOTION_API_KEY="secret_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"' >> ~/.zshrc

Share your Notion page with the integration:

1. Open the Notion page where you want playbooks saved
2. Click "..." → "Add connections" → select your integration
3. Copy the page ID from the URL:
   • URL: https://notion.so/My-Page-abc123def456...
   • Page ID: abc123def456... (the part after the last -)

Update NOTION_PAGE_ID in the Notion Push section of this skill.

3. Web Search & Fetch (required for company and background research)

This skill relies on web search and web fetch to research the target's company, industry, and background in Steps 2 & 3. Your AI agent needs access to these tools.

If using OpenClaw or Claude Code:

• Web search and WebFetch are built-in — no setup needed

If using another agent framework, make sure it has access to:

• A search API (e.g. Brave Search, Serper, Tavily, You.com) for querying company news, funding rounds, founder backgrounds
• A web fetch / scrape tool for reading pages (company websites, LinkedIn profiles, news articles)

Without these tools the agent will fall back to training knowledge only, which may be outdated. Research quality will drop significantly.
