Kai Sdr Reply Triage

kai-sdr-reply-triage - Reply Loop

Classify SDR replies and produce the next safe action. This skill is for inbound responses after outbound, referrals, bounces, opt-outs, objections, and interested replies.

Required Context

Load before triage:

• harness/skill-contracts/sdr-reply-triage.yaml
• harness/skill-contracts/sdr-package.yaml
• harness/references/cold-email-rules.md
• The relevant SDR package folder under workspace/sdr-operator//
• Sender identity, suppression list, message history, and source evidence for the contact

If any required context is missing, write a triage hold note instead of drafting a send-ready response.

Reply Categories

Classify exactly one primary category:

| Category | Action | |---|---| | interested | Prepare meeting handoff and short response. Trigger /kai-sales-meeting-prep. | | objection | Identify objection type and draft one respectful response. | | referral | Capture referred person, source, and permission trail. | | not_now | Draft low-pressure close and future reminder task. | | wrong_person | Ask for routing only when appropriate. Do not pressure. | | opt_out | Suppress globally. Do not draft further outreach except opt-out confirmation if required. | | bounce | Mark invalid contact path and block follow-up on that address. | | complaint | Stop sequence, suppress, and route to human owner. | | unsubscribe_confirmed | Record suppression and no further action. | | needs_human_review | Use for legal, regulated, sensitive, hostile, ambiguous, or high-value replies. |

Triage Workflow

1. Read the reply, original message, account row, contact row, source evidence, and suppression state.
2. Classify category, sentiment, urgency, and risk tier.
3. Identify whether the reply changes consent, suppression, routing, meeting status, objection state, or CRM state.
4. Draft the next message only when allowed.
5. Write CRM handoff notes and proposed tasks. Do not mutate CRM.
6. Update memory candidates for objection pattern, source quality, and message quality.
7. Trigger /kai-sales-meeting-prep when the reply implies a meeting, demo, call, referral intro, or buying conversation.
