Prepares a focused brief before a sales call or meeting. Pulls CRM history, open deals, recent notes, email threads, and company news. Falls back to calendar and email if the contact isn't in HubSpot yet. ALWAYS use this skill before a call or meeting — "prep me for my call with X", "I have a meeting with \[company\]", "brief me on \[name\]", "what do I know about X before my call", "research X", "who am I meeting with today", "prepping for X", or just a name paired with "call" or "meeting". Trigger proactively when the user seems about to get on a call and hasn't run prep.
