  The handler logic for 'get_cold_email_template' in the CallToolRequestSchema switch statement. Extracts template_type arg, looks up COLD_EMAIL_TEMPLATES, and returns the template with rules.

  case "get_cold_email_template": {
    const templateType = args?.template_type as string;
    const template = COLD_EMAIL_TEMPLATES[templateType as keyof typeof COLD_EMAIL_TEMPLATES];
    return {

        type: "text",
        text: JSON.stringify({
          module: "Cold Email Templates",
          rules: [
            "Keep subject lines under 5 words",

            "Under 100 words total"
          ],
          template: template
        }, null, 2)
      }]
