Match the reason for contact
Use the available Run form or CLI command for the play you choose. Not every play has both surfaces. Queue-only plays are invoked through drain. Voice and SMS motions have different target requirements from email.
x-amplify-dm produces text for you to copy into X and send by hand. Mark sent records the touch; generating the draft does not send it.
Review before sending
A draft should connect the person’s real signal to a useful offer. Your product brief and founder facts supply the context; blank credentials or evidence should not be invented. Review lint flags, recipient identity and sender routing before approving. Institutional plays require institutional context. For example,sources-sought uses a specific notice and agency. design-partner-loi moves from conversation to a scoped pilot to a non-binding letter of intent, and rejects owner-operator buyer types before drafting.
Manage the conversation
Many plays attach a cadence: a value follow-up and a final breakup message, with timing editable from Plays. Runcadence advance to poll inbound and fire due steps.
Recorded email replies stop live cadences for the prospect. You can stop a cadence manually and record why. Bad timing and other eligible stops may enter breakup-revive after the configured cold window; not-a-fit and do-not-contact remain excluded.
LinkedIn replies can also stop email cadences through Mark LinkedIn reply or the reply webhook. Connection acceptance alone is not a reply.
