Contact Cache

Track all identified/contacted people across strategies. CSV-backed contact database with dedup by LinkedIn URL or email. Prevents duplicate outreach when running strategies on a recurring cadence.

Data

Contacts are stored in skills/contact-cache/data/contacts.csv. The file is auto-created on first use.

Dedup is by LinkedIn URL (preferred) or email. Both are normalized and hashed (SHA256, first 16 chars) to produce a stable contact_id.

Valid Statuses

new, qualified, contacted, replied, meeting_booked, converted, not_interested
