Runs a single end-to-end execution of an existing automation against a mock conversation, returning success/failure plus the channel target and duration. Mirrors a real production firing.
Behavior:
- Sends REAL messages by default: posts the configured webhook, sends the configured email, posts the Slack message, or writes the HubSpot record. Use override_email (email channels) or override_webhook (webhook channels) to redirect delivery to a safe test target.
- Each call fires another real delivery.
- Errors when the perspective or automation is not found, or you do not have access. Webhook URLs (configured or override) are validated.
- Mock conversation defaults: trust score 85, status complete, "Test Participant" / test@example.com. Override participant_name, summary, and tags via test_data.
- Returns success: true also when the automation's condition skips delivery (e.g., tag/trust filter doesn't match the mock). The error field is populated only on real delivery failures.
When to use this tool:
- Verifying a freshly-created automation actually delivers before relying on it. PREFER override_email/override_webhook to avoid spamming real recipients.
- Reproducing a delivery failure surfaced in automation_list (last_error).
When NOT to use this tool:
- Listing what's configured — use automation_list.
- Changing config — use automation_update.
- Removing the automation — use automation_delete.
