Looks up a colleague by name, department, job title, or phone number across the company directory and the authenticated RingEX Phone user's personal contacts, disambiguating when more than one match is found. Use when the user asks for someone's extension, title, department, or availability, or wants to find a colleague in the directory or their own contacts.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/ringcentral/ringex-claude-plugin /tmp/ringex-claude-plugin && ln -s /tmp/ringex-claude-plugin/skills/colleague-lookup ~/.claude/skills/colleague-lookup
```

## From README

Colleague Lookup Goal Answer "who is this person / how do I reach them" quickly and correctly, being explicit about which pool of data an answer came from — the company directory is not the same thing as the user's personal address book, and the two tools that read them accept different selectors. Trigger examples "What's John's extension?" "Is Sarah available right now?" "Find Ada Lovelace in the directory." "What team is Priya on?" "Do I have a personal contact saved for +1 415 555 1234?" "Who's the manager of the support department?" Scope boundary Read-only lookup. This skill never edits, adds, or removes a contact or directory entry — there is no such tool exposed on this server. resolvedirectoryperson (company directory) only accepts a name, department, or role (job title) selector — it does not accept a phone number. searchmycontacts (personal address book) accepts name or phonenumber.
