send_sequenceDispatch a built sequence.

Once a sequence is built and reviewed, the agent needs to actually send. send_sequence dispatches the sequence through your connected sender (email provider, X DM, LinkedIn-via-MCP) on the schedule baked into the sequence, with throttling and tracking. Two credits. Returns a job id you can poll with sequence_status.

When to call this tool

Always after a human or higher-confidence agent has reviewed the sequence. The tool will fail-fast if the connected sender isn't authorised, if the recipient lacks a contact channel, or if the recipient is on the suppression list. It is intentionally a single-purpose dispatcher — sequence editing happens in the build step.
