Find and qualify speakers for a technical event outside the open call for papers - the proactive channel running alongside or instead of a CFP. Covers program gaps worth filling by invitation, sourcing channels (referral asks, expert and speaker directories, prior-talk review, community scouting), international sourcing by region and language, evidence-based Hot/Warm/Cold/Skip qualification, and a ranked shortlist carrying the "why" behind each name. Use whenever the user mentions finding speakers, a keynote or invited-speaker shortlist, sourcing international or under-represented speakers, or a programme a CFP did not fill - even if they never say "sourcing". Do NOT use to write the invitation - use samber/dev-event-organizer-skills@event-speaker-cold-outreach instead.

Read https://sourceweft.com/skills/gh-samber-dev-event-organizer-skills-event-speaker-sourcing/install.md and install the skill it describes. Before installing, show me its source, license and whether it ships scripts, and wait for my OK. Ask me before changing anything else on my machine.Install it yourself from a terminal
For Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and other local agents. The SourceWeft CLI fetches the skill from its source repository at the commit scanned here, and verifies every file against the hashes recorded when the skill was scanned. If anything differs, nothing is written.
npx @sourceweft/cli skills install @samber/event-speaker-sourcingAdd --agent claude-code, codex, cursor or universal to choose which agent gets it (Claude Code by default).
