Installieren

Wählen Sie Ihren Client

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json · Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lessie-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/LessieAI/lessie-skill",
        "~/.claude/skills/lessie-skill"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Öffne Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Nach dem Speichern neu starten.

~/.cursor/mcp.json · .cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lessie-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/LessieAI/lessie-skill",
        "~/.claude/skills/lessie-skill"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Cursor nutzt das gleiche mcpServers-Schema wie Claude Desktop. Projektkonfiguration schlägt die globale.

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lessie-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/LessieAI/lessie-skill",
        "~/.claude/skills/lessie-skill"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Klicken Sie auf das MCP-Servers-Symbol in der Cline-Seitenleiste, dann "Edit Configuration".

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lessie-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/LessieAI/lessie-skill",
        "~/.claude/skills/lessie-skill"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Gleiche Struktur wie Claude Desktop. Windsurf neu starten zum Übernehmen.

~/.continue/config.json

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "lessie-skill",
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/LessieAI/lessie-skill",
        "~/.claude/skills/lessie-skill"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Continue nutzt ein Array von Serverobjekten statt einer Map.

~/.config/zed/settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "lessie-skill": {
      "command": {
        "path": "git",
        "args": [
          "clone",
          "https://github.com/LessieAI/lessie-skill",
          "~/.claude/skills/lessie-skill"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

In context_servers hinzufügen. Zed lädt beim Speichern neu.

claude mcp add lessie-skill -- git clone https://github.com/LessieAI/lessie-skill ~/.claude/skills/lessie-skill

Einzeiler. Prüfen mit claude mcp list. Entfernen mit claude mcp remove.

Anwendungsfälle

Praxisnahe Nutzung: lessie-skill

Build a B2B prospect list for a sales sequence

👤 Founders, SDRs, agency owners running targeted outreach ⏱ ~45 min intermediate

Wann einsetzen: You need 50 qualified contacts for a specific campaign without a Sales Navigator seat.

Voraussetzungen

Skill cloned + Lessie account — git clone https://github.com/LessieAI/lessie-skill ~/.claude/skills/lessie-skill; sign up at lessie for API key

Ablauf

Define the ICP

Use lessie-skill — find Engineering Managers at SaaS companies, 50-500 employees, using Stripe, HQ in EU.✓ Kopiert

→ Lessie find-people call with filter JSON, not generic search
Enrich contacts

Enrich the top 25 with verified email.✓ Kopiert

→ Emails plus validation status returned
Draft personalized emails

Draft individualized openers using each person's recent company news. No spam phrases.✓ Kopiert

→ Per-contact personalization, not copy-paste

Ergebnis: A usable prospect list with personalized opener drafts.

Fallstricke

Treating 'verified' email as guaranteed deliverable — Warm your sending domain and monitor bounces — verification is probabilistic

Kombinieren mit: github

Source engineering candidates for a specific role

👤 Recruiters and hiring managers on small teams ⏱ ~30 min intermediate

Wann einsetzen: You need a shortlist before pinging a recruiter.

Ablauf

Search

lessie-skill — find Senior Rust engineers in Berlin or remote EU, with distributed systems background.✓ Kopiert

→ Targeted list with signals (seniority, stack evidence)
Qualify

For the top 10, summarize each in two sentences: strongest fit signal + one reservation.✓ Kopiert

→ Honest summaries, not just enrichment fields

Ergebnis: A human-readable shortlist ready for outreach.

Werkzeuge

Was dieses MCP bereitstellt

Werkzeug	Eingaben	Wann aufrufen	Kosten
find-people	title / company / domain / location filters	Starting from ICP filters	Lessie plan-dependent
enrich-contact	person id or profile	Shortlist narrowed and ready to contact	Per-enrichment credit
find-company	company name or domain + optional filters	Account research before outreach	Plan-dependent
send-email	Gmail/Outlook account + to/subject/body	Only after you review drafts — don't auto-send at scale	Uses your own mailbox

Kosten & Limits

Was der Betrieb kostet

API-Kontingent: Depends on Lessie plan — the skill itself is just the prompt wrapper
Tokens pro Aufruf: Moderate; responses can be large when listing 50+ contacts
Kosten in €: Free — skills are local files. Lessie's data API is paid; consult current plans.
Tipp: Filter aggressively before enrichment; every enrichment call costs credits.

Sicherheit

Rechte, Secrets, Reichweite

Credential-Speicherung: Lessie API key in env var; Gmail/Outlook via OAuth if you use send-email

Datenabfluss: Queries go to Lessie's API. Email sending goes via your provider.

Contact enrichment must comply with GDPR / CAN-SPAM / local laws — Lessie provides data, compliance is on you.
Don't automate bulk sends without warming; volume without domain reputation = spam folder.

Fehlerbehebung

Häufige Fehler und Lösungen

Skill not invoked — Claude offers generic LinkedIn advice

Say 'use lessie-skill' explicitly.

Prüfen: ls ~/.claude/skills/lessie-skill/SKILL.md

SKILL.md frontmatter wrong

Re-clone; description drives activation.

Prüfen: head ~/.claude/skills/lessie-skill/SKILL.md

Wrong trigger keywords — enrichment runs before filtering narrows the list

Explicitly: 'first find-people, then I'll pick who to enrich'.

Alternativen

lessie-skill vs. andere

Alternative	Wann stattdessen	Kompromiss
Apollo.io / Clay	You want a full GTM suite with sequencing tools	Much heavier platforms; pricier
LinkedIn Sales Navigator	LinkedIn-native prospecting with InMail	Expensive, no agent integration
