Build a verified ABM target list from a campaign brief

<context>
I have a campaign brief and I need a verified ABM target list — the right accounts and the right contacts at each one, enriched with firmographic data and layered with buying signals. The list needs to be campaign-ready: accounts tiered by signal strength, contacts validated, ready for paid, outbound, or personalized outreach.

My campaign brief:
- Campaign name or goal: [e.g. "Q3 pipeline push — mid-market SaaS RevOps"]
- Target industry: [e.g. "B2B SaaS" / "Fintech" / "Multiple — list them"]
- Target company size: [e.g. "200–1,000 employees"]
- Target geography: [e.g. "US and Canada" / "EMEA" / "Global"]
- Target persona: [e.g. "VP of Revenue Operations, Head of Sales Operations, Director of RevOps"]
- Seniority floor: [e.g. "Director and above" / "VP and above"]
- Number of accounts to build: [e.g. "50" / "100" / "as many as possible"]
- Named accounts to include: [PASTE LIST OR "none"]
- Accounts to exclude: [e.g. "existing customers, current pipeline"]
- Slack channel for output: [CHANNEL NAME OR "return as list only"]

<task>
1. Use Lusha to find companies matching the campaign brief criteria:
   - Industry, headcount range, and geography as specified
   - Exclude any accounts listed in the exclusion field

2. For each company found, check Lusha's signals layer for buying activity in the last 30 days:
   - Funding event (Series A or later)
   - New exec hire in the target function
   - Headcount growth 15%+ in the target function
   - M&A as acquirer
   Assign a signal score: HIGH (2+ signals), MEDIUM (1 signal), NONE (no signal)

3. For each account, find the right contact matching the target persona:
   - Most senior verified contact in the target function
   - Secondary contact if available (evaluator or champion level)
   - Verified work email and direct mobile for each

4. Build the ABM target list with three tiers:
   - TIER 1: signal score HIGH + primary contact verified — prioritise for personal outreach and paid
   - TIER 2: signal score MEDIUM or NONE + primary contact verified — include in campaign sequences
   - TIER 3: account matches ICP but contact unverified or below seniority floor — research before activating

5. Return:
   - Full tiered account list with verified contacts, firmographics, signals, and recommended channel per tier
   - Summary: X Tier 1, X Tier 2, X Tier 3
   - Top 10 accounts to activate first — named accounts with named contacts
   - Any named accounts from the brief with no verified contact found

6. If Slack channel specified: post campaign summary — total accounts, tier breakdown, top 10, list attached.
</task>

<constraints>
- Only Lusha-verified contacts. No format guesses, no unverified emails.
- TIER 1 requires both a signal AND a verified decision-maker. Don't inflate the tier.
- Exclusion list applied before any output — don't include existing customers or current pipeline.
- Top 10 must be named accounts with named contacts.
</constraints>
