What it does

Upload a CSV of leads + a variants YAML (produced by /campaign-copywriting) to Smartlead as a DRAFT campaign. Handles tag-scoped inbox selection, A/B/C variant assembly, custom field mapping, schedule config, and batch lead upload. ALWAYS creates in DRAFT, you review in Smartlead UI and hit Start manually. Use after /campaign-copywriting, just before the campaign goes live.

Smartlead Campaign Upload

Takes a variants.yaml (written by /campaign-copywriting) and a leads.csv (from your list-building skills) and creates a DRAFT campaign in Smartlead. You review the result in the Smartlead UI and press Start manually.

This skill does NOT ship any email copy. Copy comes from /campaign-copywriting. This skill is the mechanical upload layer, API calls only.

Why DRAFT only

Cold email launches should never happen from a script. You hit Start in the Smartlead UI after reviewing:

  • Subject lines + body previews
  • Inbox assignments (correct tag? correct count?)
  • Lead count and a few random lead rows
  • Schedule (timezone + hours + throttle)

The script sets all of this up in DRAFT so the review is trivial, verify and click Start.

Inputs

leads.csv

Required columns:

  • email
  • first_name
  • last_name
  • company_name

Optional columns (passed through to Smartlead as custom fields):

  • company_domain
  • title
  • linkedin_url
  • situation_line (AI-generated per-lead context)
  • value_line (AI-generated value mapping)
  • cta_line (AI-generated CTA angle)

Additional AI variable columns produced by /campaign-copywriting or /personalization-subagent-pattern, named fields only. The script does NOT accept arbitrary columns; this is intentional. If you need to add a field, update this skill.

variants.yaml

Produced by /campaign-copywriting. Schema is in references/variants-schema.yaml.

Minimum required: name, schedule, inbox_selection, sequences with at least one step.

Usage

export SMARTLEAD_API_KEY=xxx
npx tsx scripts/upload.ts \
  --leads=profiles/<slug>/campaigns/<campaign-slug>/leads.csv \
  --variants=profiles/<slug>/campaigns/<campaign-slug>/variants.yaml
