Agent Operations
Create, run, pause, review, and tune agents with clear ownership and review habits.
Purpose
Agents turn workspace inputs into reviewable work. Use this guide when creating, running, pausing, reviewing, and tuning agents.
Prerequisites
- A defined offer and ICP.
- Connected sender accounts for any workflow that will send or sync messages.
- A review owner who can inspect first-run prospects and recommendations.
Steps
- Create the agent with one primary goal and a narrow first-run scope.
- Add only the topics, profile signals, or discovery settings needed for that workflow.
- Run the agent manually before relying on schedule-based work.
- Review runs, candidates, prospects, and analytics before expanding volume.
- Pause or mark draft when ownership, senders, or targeting are no longer valid.
Verification
- The next run time and status match the operating plan.
- Prospects created by the agent are visible in the queue or prospect list.
- Rejected candidates teach you what to tune before the next run.
- Analytics explain whether the agent needs more inputs, better qualification, or a smaller scope.
Common mistakes
- Letting a draft agent stay active after its offer or ICP changes.
- Adding broad signals before reviewing the first run.
- Reading analytics without checking the underlying prospects and timeline events.
