pp-smartlead

Original：🇺🇸 English

Translated

Every SmartLead API feature, plus a local mirror that answers campaign-health, silent-lead, and cross-campaign... Trigger phrases: `check my smartlead campaigns`, `which leads went silent`, `is this domain already pitched`, `rank my sender accounts`, `use smartlead`, `run smartlead`.

SmartLead — Printing Press CLI

Prerequisites: Install the CLI

This skill drives the

smartlead-pp-cli

binary. You must verify the CLI is installed before invoking any command from this skill. If it is missing, install it first:

Install via the Printing Press installer:

bash

npx -y @mvanhorn/printing-press-library install smartlead --cli-only

Verify:
```
smartlead-pp-cli --version
```
Ensure
```
$GOPATH/bin
```
(or
```
$HOME/go/bin
```
) is on
```
$PATH
```
.

If the

npx

install fails (no Node, offline, etc.), fall back to a direct Go install (requires Go 1.26.3 or newer):

bash

go install github.com/mvanhorn/printing-press-library/library/sales-and-crm/smartlead/cmd/smartlead-pp-cli@latest

--version

reports "command not found" after install, the install step did not put the binary on

$PATH

. Do not proceed with skill commands until verification succeeds.

When to Use This CLI

Use this CLI when an agent or operator needs to audit cold-email outreach in SmartLead: checking which campaigns are healthy, building follow-up lists of silent leads, deduplicating leads across campaigns before launch, or ranking sender accounts by deliverability. It is the right tool when the question spans multiple campaigns or needs week-over-week history, because those answers come from the local mirror rather than a single API call.

Unique Capabilities

These capabilities aren't available in any other tool for this API.

Local state that compounds

health
— One-shot scorecard for every campaign — bounce rate, reply rate, silent-lead count, sender count, and a stale flag — without clicking through the dashboard.
Reach for this first when an agent needs to know which campaigns are healthy before drilling into any one of them.
bash
```
smartlead-pp-cli health --json
```
silent
— Finds leads that were emailed but have not replied within N days — the exact set to follow up with or retire.
Use this to build a follow-up list instead of paging the whole lead set and diffing timestamps by hand.
bash
```
smartlead-pp-cli silent --campaign 12345 --days 7 --json
```
dupes
— Scans the whole lead mirror for emails or domains that appear in two or more campaigns; --domain prints the full pitch ledger for one site.
Run this before adding leads to a campaign to avoid double-contacting a prospect already in flight.
bash
```
smartlead-pp-cli dupes --domain example.com --json
```
drift
— Computes week-over-week reply, open, and bounce deltas for a campaign by querying analytics one seven-day window at a time.
Use this to catch a campaign decaying over time rather than judging it from a single point-in-time stat.
bash
```
smartlead-pp-cli drift --campaign 12345 --weeks 4 --json
```

Deliverability intelligence

sender-health
— Ranks every email sender account by a composite of inbox-warmup landing rate, SMTP/IMAP connection health, and sending utilization.
Reach for this to find which sender accounts are dragging deliverability before they tank a campaign.
bash
```
smartlead-pp-cli sender-health --json
```
warmup-gate
— Checks each sender account against warmup thresholds (--min-days, --min-inbox-rate); with --strict it exits non-zero when any account fails — a scriptable launch gate.
Call this in a launch script to block attaching a sender account that is not warmed up yet.
bash
```
smartlead-pp-cli warmup-gate --account 6789 --json
```

Finding the right command

When you know what you want to do but not which command does it, ask the CLI directly:

bash

smartlead-pp-cli which "<capability in your own words>"

which

resolves a natural-language capability query to the best matching command from this CLI's curated feature index. Exit code

means at least one match; exit code

means no confident match — fall back to

--help

or use a narrower query.

Recipes

Morning campaign triage

bash

smartlead-pp-cli sync && smartlead-pp-cli health --json

Refresh the mirror, then get the all-campaigns health scorecard in one structured payload.

Pre-launch dedupe check

bash

smartlead-pp-cli dupes --domain prospect-site.com --json

See every campaign, category, and last-contact date for a domain before pitching it again.

Build a follow-up list

bash

smartlead-pp-cli silent --campaign 12345 --days 10 --json

Pull leads emailed but silent for 10+ days to feed into a follow-up sequence.

Trim a verbose campaign payload

bash

smartlead-pp-cli campaigns list --agent --select id,name,status

SmartLead campaign objects are large; --agent with --select narrows the response to just the fields an agent needs.

Gate a launch on sender warmup

bash

smartlead-pp-cli warmup-gate --account 6789 --json

Returns a typed exit code so a launch script can block on a sender that is not warmed up.

Auth Setup

SmartLead authenticates with an API key passed as the api_key query parameter. Set SMARTLEAD_API_KEY in your environment (find the key under Settings -> API in the SmartLead app). No OAuth, no login flow.

Run

smartlead-pp-cli doctor

to verify setup.

Agent Mode

Add

--agent

to any command. Expands to:

--json --compact --no-input --no-color --yes

Pipeable — JSON on stdout, errors on stderr
Filterable —
```
--select
```
keeps a subset of fields. Dotted paths descend into nested structures; arrays traverse element-wise. Critical for keeping context small on verbose APIs:
bash
```
smartlead-pp-cli campaigns list --agent --select id,name,status
```
Previewable —
```
--dry-run
```
shows the request without sending
Offline-friendly — sync/search commands can use the local SQLite store when available
Non-interactive — never prompts, every input is a flag
Explicit retries — use
```
--idempotent
```
only when an already-existing create should count as success, and
```
--ignore-missing
```
only when a missing delete target should count as success

Response envelope

Commands that read from the local store or the API wrap output in a provenance envelope:

json

{
  "meta": {"source": "live" | "local", "synced_at": "...", "reason": "..."},
  "results": <data>
}

Parse

.results

for data and

.meta.source

to know whether it's live or local. A human-readable

N results (live)

summary is printed to stderr only when stdout is a terminal AND no machine-format flag (

--json

--csv

--compact

--quiet

--plain

--select

) is set — piped/agent consumers and explicit-format runs get pure JSON on stdout.

Agent Feedback

When you (or the agent) notice something off about this CLI, record it:

smartlead-pp-cli feedback "the --since flag is inclusive but docs say exclusive"
smartlead-pp-cli feedback --stdin < notes.txt
smartlead-pp-cli feedback list --json --limit 10

Entries are stored locally at

~/.smartlead-pp-cli/feedback.jsonl

. They are never POSTed unless

SMARTLEAD_FEEDBACK_ENDPOINT

is set AND either

--send

is passed or

SMARTLEAD_FEEDBACK_AUTO_SEND=true

. Default behavior is local-only.

Write what surprised you, not a bug report. Short, specific, one line: that is the part that compounds.

Output Delivery

Every command accepts

--deliver <sink>

. The output goes to the named sink in addition to (or instead of) stdout, so agents can route command results without hand-piping. Three sinks are supported:

Sink	Effect
`stdout`	Default; write to stdout only
`file:<path>`	Atomically write output to `<path>` (tmp + rename)
`webhook:<url>`	POST the output body to the URL ( `application/json` or `application/x-ndjson` when `--compact` )

Unknown schemes are refused with a structured error naming the supported set. Webhook failures return non-zero and log the URL + HTTP status on stderr.

Named Profiles

A profile is a saved set of flag values, reused across invocations. Use it when a scheduled agent calls the same command every run with the same configuration - HeyGen's "Beacon" pattern.

smartlead-pp-cli profile save briefing --json
smartlead-pp-cli --profile briefing campaigns list
smartlead-pp-cli profile list --json
smartlead-pp-cli profile show briefing
smartlead-pp-cli profile delete briefing --yes

Explicit flags always win over profile values; profile values win over defaults.

agent-context

lists all available profiles under

available_profiles

so introspecting agents discover them at runtime.

Exit Codes

Code	Meaning
0	Success
2	Usage error (wrong arguments)
3	Resource not found
4	Authentication required
5	API error (upstream issue)
7	Rate limited (wait and retry)
10	Config error

Match the user query to the best command from the Unique Capabilities and Command Reference above.

Execute with the

--agent

flag:

bash

smartlead-pp-cli <command> [subcommand] [args] --agent

If ambiguous, drill into subcommand help:
```
smartlead-pp-cli <command> --help
```
.
