6-Step SDR Pipeline — Active (Permission-Only Cost APIs)
NOT GATED ANYMORE. Cost-bearing APIs (treg `/call/` categories: lead_enrichment, image_generation, video_generation, ai_generation; IONOS SMTP email; Apify budget >0) are ACTIVE but will ONLY run with explicit user request / permission — agent asks before any spend call. Cal.com scheduling and non-metered services remain open. Default budget display shows 0 for visibility, but agent must confirm with user before executing any cost call.

Cold Outreach — 6 Steps (Active, Permission-Only Cost)
The pipeline runs from `treg` SKILL.md + `apify-engagers` SKILL.md. Step 3 (`Apify` — `POST_REACTIONS` actor) extracts engagers. Step 4 (`treg` enrichment proxy) enriches via audited `/call/<catalog-id>` endpoints (`apollo/people/match`, `hunterio/combined/find`, `pdl/v5/person/enrich`). Step 5 (`LLM` personalization — custom AI emails using enriched data + ICP + client's `pages.dev` site research + Hormozi-style $100M Offer template from user's 10-lead demo messages). Step 6 (`Cal.com` — scheduling / appointment lock after positive reply). Scheduling is NOT cost-metered.
Cost-Bearing Categories — All OFF by Default
Per `treg.json` (`line 90-96`) and `apify-engagers` budget disclosure (`line 170-176`):
- lead_enrichment (`enabled: false`, `limit: 0`, max $0.0015/call — `apollo`/`hunterio`/`pdl` via treg `/call/`)
- image_generation (`enabled: false`, `limit: 0`, max $0.015/call — `meigen` / `higgsfield` via treg)
- video_generation (`enabled: false`, `limit: 0`, max $0.56/call — `higgsfield/video` via treg)
- ai_generation (`enabled: false`, `limit: 0`, max $0.10/call — LLM reasoning/personalization)
- email_outreach_ionos (`enabled: false`, `limit: 0`, `max_emails_per_day: 10`, `IONOS_SMTP` — defensive cap vs spam/block)
- scheduling (`enabled: true`, `metered_by_treg: false` — `Cal.com`; NOT metered)

Hormozi $100M Offer / 10-Lead Template (Reference)
Copy style: outcome-first language, data-heavy claims, "before vs. after" framing, direct CTAs with stakes ("early adopters gain compounding advantage"). For any URL mentioned: full uppercase (e.g. WWW.THEGRAHMFIRM.COM). Template drawn from user's 10 enriched lead demo messages (numbered 1-10: Highway Logistics LLC, Metro Courier Services, Speeedy Courier, Reliable Couriers, Orbi Express US, Priority Express Parcel, Allstates WorldCargo, C.H. Robinson, K&M Last Mile LLC / Amazon DSP, Lightning Express / FedEx Contractor) — saved as design reference (not embedded in SKILL.md output; agent draws from it for customized AI-generated emails). Per taste (`taste.md`): ≤6-word headlines, specific beats clever, no hype without proof, verb-first specific CTA per message.
Skills Stack
- `treg` (agent-tool proxy, budget-gated)
- `apify-engagers` (engager extraction — kept separate per user instruction)
- `monid` (data discovery — treg proxy alt)
- `ai-slop-defeat` (treg layer note added)
- `tastemaker` (`treg_proxy:` option in `mcp:` block)
- `higgsfield` (budget-gated imagery/video; treg can proxy)
Live Site
Deployed: sdr-neon-guide.pages.dev (`#big` anchor)
`sdr-final.html` pipeline (6 steps) preserved. `Cal.com` scheduling (`Step 6`) — appointment lock after positive reply; scheduling cost tracked separately (NOT through `TREG_BUDGET_LIMIT`).
Verification Gate — Evidence Before Deploy
📌 Deployed (project `cold-outreach-cc` — own slug): `https://cd6af1a7.ig-prompt-gen.pages.dev/` via `wrangler pages deploy cold-outreach-cc --branch=main --commit-dirty=true`. Budget default `0`; `.secret/ionos_smtp` required before IONOS SMTP; user must approve before any `treg /call/`, Apify spend, or LLM cost. Evidence: `treg/SKILL.md` gates / `apify-engagers` budget disclosure / `.mcp.json` `treg` entry. Pstack: 3 slices (design/deploy/verify-cost) done; `.decisions/` log saved; `.backup-*` preserved; how-critic audit passed. Hormozi reference: outcome-first, number, stakes CTA — line 105-106 section.- `treg/SKILL.md:2` — name: treg; `line 4`: version 1.0.0; `line 14`: budget-metered tag; `line 16`: `mcp_url`

- `apify-engagers/SKILL.md:170-176` — budget disclosure (`Apify` ONLY enabled; `treg` proxy; `LLM` separate; direct enrichment GATED OFF; `IONOS` SMTP gate — max 10/day defensive; scheduling separate/non-metered; session-spend confirmation — "no hidden/unmentioned spend")
- `.mcp.json` (`python -c` JSON parse confirmed this session) — `treg` entry (`streamableHttp`, URL `https://treg.to/mcp/`) + `higgsfield` (`:-0`) + `meigen`/`monid`/`retell`/`firecrawl` present; `.herenow.env` masked (`# TREG_TOKEN` — no literal); `.secret/` empty (user provides live token); memory (`treg-skill.md`) saved.
- `PSTACK AGENT` (`pstack-rigor` SKILL.md — 387 lines, feature/debug/autonomous/interrogate/playbooks; `subagent_type: "pstack-how-critic"` used; `subagent_type: "pstack-agent"` unavailable locally per upstream docs `line 361`; manual verification completed — no hidden spend confirmed).
- `GATE 1 — ENRICH ARENA` (verified 2026-09-17): `treg/SKILL.md:101-103` (apollo/hunterio/pdl endpoints); `SKILL.md:89` (default_credits:0); `index.html:105-106` (10 lead profiles verified: Highway/Metro/Speeedy/Reliable/Orbi/Priority/Allstates/C.H. Robinson/K&M/Lightning); `.mcp.json:41-50` (treg entry `enabled:false` budget `:-0`); `.secret/` MISSING (prerequisites unfulfilled); `.decisions/deploy-state.tsv:7` (GATE 1 evidence row); NO `/call/` executed; design DNA (`line 11-13`) preserved; identity (`line 6`, `49`) preserved; anti-slop (`line 9`) preserved; backups (`.backup-cold-*` 3 dirs) preserved.

3-Step PSTACK Workflow
- SLICE 1 — Design: Lock design tokens (`--bg`, `--surface`, `--accent`, `--pop`, `--warn`, `--ok`), verify `.backup-cold-outreach-cc-*` preserved, confirm `.secret/ionos_smtp` + budget prerequisites.
- SLICE 2 — Deploy: Run `wrangler pages deploy cold-outreach-cc --branch=main --commit-dirty=true` (deployed to https://cd6af1a7.ig-prompt-gen.pages.dev).
- SLICE 3 — Verify cost APIs with user permission: Confirm `.decisions/deploy-state.tsv` state; agent asks before any `treg /call/`, Apify spend >5, IONOS SMTP (>10/day defensive cap), or LLM spend.
Persistence / prerequisites: `C:\Users\stgco\cold-outreach-cc\.decisions/deploy-state.tsv` (decision log) · `.backup-cold-outreach-cc-20260917/` (pre-deploy) · `.secret/ionos_smtp` (credentials) · budget confirmation (`TREG_BUDGET_LIMIT`, `APIFY_ENGAGERS_BUDGET_LIMIT`) required before any cost call.
