Server tool list (6)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| list_campaigns | List campaigns in the user's MachFive workspace. CALL THIS FIRST before generate_sequence or generate_batch — you need a campaign ID to generate emails. If the user hasn't specified a campaign, call this and ask them to pick one. Returns JSON array of campaigns with id, name, and created_at. Use the 'id' field as campaign_id in generate calls. |
| generate_sequence | Generate a personalized cold email sequence for ONE lead. This is SYNCHRONOUS — the request takes 3-10 minutes because MachFive researches the prospect and crafts unique emails. Do NOT retry if it seems slow; wait for the response. You must have a campaign_id first. Call list_campaigns if you don't have one. If the request times out, use the returned list_id with get_list_status and export_list to recover results. |
| generate_batch | Submit multiple leads for batch email sequence generation (ASYNC). Returns IMMEDIATELY with a list_id. Processing runs in the background. After calling this, poll get_list_status every 15-30 seconds until processing_status is 'completed' or 'failed', then call export_list. You must have a campaign_id first. Call list_campaigns if you don't have one. |
| list_lists | List lead lists (batch jobs) in the user's MachFive workspace. Useful for browsing past batches, checking what's in progress, or finding a list_id to export. Results are ordered newest first. |
| get_list_status | Check the processing status of a lead list. Use this to POLL after calling generate_batch. Call every 15-30 seconds until processing_status is 'completed' or 'failed'. When completed, call export_list. When failed, submit a new batch. |
| export_list | Download the generated email sequences for a COMPLETED list. Only call this AFTER get_list_status shows processing_status = 'completed'. If the list is not yet completed, you'll get a 409 error — poll first. |
