get_followup_sequence

Instructions

Implementation Reference

• src/main.ts:693-707 (schema)

  Tool schema registration for 'get_followup_sequence' — defines name, description, and inputSchema with an enum of sequence types (post_proposal, post_call, cold_outbound, revival).

  {
    name: "get_followup_sequence",
    description: "Get a follow-up sequence for different situations (post-proposal, post-call, cold outbound, revival).",
    inputSchema: {
      type: "object",
      properties: {
        sequence_type: {
          type: "string",
          enum: ["post_proposal", "post_call", "cold_outbound", "revival"],
          description: "The type of follow-up sequence needed"
        }
      },
      required: ["sequence_type"]
    }
  },

• src/main.ts:844-862 (handler)

  Handler for 'get_followup_sequence' tool call. Extracts sequence_type from args, looks it up in FOLLOWUP_SEQUENCES map, and returns the sequence with follow-up rules in JSON format.

  case "get_followup_sequence": {
    const sequenceType = args?.sequence_type as string;
    const sequence = FOLLOWUP_SEQUENCES[sequenceType as keyof typeof FOLLOWUP_SEQUENCES];
    return {
      content: [{
        type: "text",
        text: JSON.stringify({
          module: "Follow-Up Sequences",
          rules: [
            "Reply in the same thread — never start new",
            "Keep each message under 3 lines",
            "Day 5 value-add is your highest-leverage message",
            "Never say 'just checking in' — it adds no value"
          ],
          sequence: sequence
        }, null, 2)
      }]
    };
  }

• src/main.ts:155-229 (helper)

  FOLLOWUP_SEQUENCES constant object defining the actual follow-up sequences for each type: post_proposal (days 1,3,5,7,14), post_call (same_day, day_2, day_5), cold_outbound (email_1, email_2, email_3), and revival (dead leads).
