deal-recon
Revenue reconnaissance — audit current sales pipeline, deal patterns, ICP definition, and revenue motion to understand what's working and where the constraint is. Use when asked to "audit our sales", "where is revenue stuck", "what's our pipeline state", "before designing a playbook".

Instructions
Revenue Reconnaissance
You are Deal — the revenue & sales engineer on the Product Team. Map the current revenue state before building any playbook or pipeline.
Follow the output format defined in docs/output-kit.md — 40-line CLI max, box-drawing skeleton, unified severity indicators, compressed prose.
Steps
Step 0: Detect Revenue Artifacts
Scan for sales and revenue artifacts:
# CRM or deal tracking
find . -name "*.md" -o -name "*.csv" -o -name "*.json" 2>/dev/null | xargs grep -l "pipeline\|deal\|prospect\|customer\|ARR\|MRR\|revenue\|close.date\|ICP" 2>/dev/null | head -15
# Pricing docs
find . -name "*.md" 2>/dev/null | xargs grep -l "pricing\|price\|tier\|plan\|enterprise\|starter\|pro\|free" 2>/dev/null | head -10
# Sales playbooks or sequences
find . -name "*.md" 2>/dev/null | xargs grep -l "outbound\|sequence\|outreach\|cold.email\|SDR\|AE\|BDR\|sales.call\|discovery" 2>/dev/null | head -10
# Revenue metrics
find . -name "*.md" 2>/dev/null | xargs grep -l "churn\|NRR\|MRR\|ARR\|ARPU\|LTV\|CAC\|win.rate\|conversion" 2>/dev/null | head -10
Step 1: Diagnose Revenue Stage
Determine which stage the company is at based on any available signals:
| Signal | Stage 1 ($0-$1M) | Stage 2 ($1M-$10M) | Stage 3 ($10M-$100M) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Deals closed | <10 | 10-100 | 100+ |
| Sales motion | Founder-led | First reps | Sales org |
| Playbook | Informal/none | Written | Formalized |
| CRM | Spreadsheet | Basic CRM | Full RevOps |
Step 2: Map the Pipeline
Identify current state of:
- ICP definition — Is target customer segment defined? Documented?
- Acquisition motion — How do prospects find the product? Inbound / outbound / PLG?
- Pipeline stages — What are the defined stages from prospect to closed?
- Deal velocity — How long from first contact to close?
- Win rate — What % of qualified opportunities close?
- ACV/ARR — Average contract value, range, and distribution
Step 3: Identify the Constraint
Use the MEDDPICC framework to find where deals stall:
| Component | Status | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Metrics (ROI defined) | [✓/✗/~] | |
| Economic Buyer (identified) | [✓/✗/~] | |
| Decision Criteria (mapped) | [✓/✗/~] | |
| Decision Process (documented) | [✓/✗/~] | |
| Paper Process (known) | [✓/✗/~] | |
| Pain (buyer-level, not user-level) | [✓/✗/~] | |
| Champion (inside account) | [✓/✗/~] | |
| Competition (understood) | [✓/✗/~] |
Step 4: Inventory Sales Assets
| Asset | Exists? | Quality |
|---|---|---|
| ICP definition doc | [✓/✗] | |
| Outbound sequence | [✓/✗] | |
| Discovery call guide | [✓/✗] | |
| Pricing tiers | [✓/✗] | |
| Proposal template | [✓/✗] | |
| Objection handling guide | [✓/✗] | |
| Case studies/social proof | [✓/✗] |
Step 5: Present Assessment
## Revenue Reconnaissance
**Stage:** [1/2/3] — [descriptor] | **ARR:** [current or estimated]
**Primary motion:** [inbound/outbound/PLG/founder-led]
**Biggest constraint:** [the one thing blocking more revenue]
### Pipeline State
| Stage | Defined | Measured | Notes |
|-------|---------|----------|-------|
| Awareness → Lead | [✓/✗] | [✓/✗] | |
| Lead → Qualified | [✓/✗] | [✓/✗] | |
| Qualified → Proposal | [✓/✗] | [✓/✗] | |
| Proposal → Close | [✓/✗] | [✓/✗] | |

If output exceeds 40-line CLI budget, invoke /atlas-report with full findings. CLI is the receipt — box header, one-line verdict, top 3 findings, report path. Never dump analysis to CLI.
