Agents

Agents let AI operate Starlight for you. Open the panel with the Agents button (or press A) on any page to chat with an assistant that can search leads, judge their fit, draft outreach, and — with your sign-off — send it. You can also create virtual SDRs: persistent agents that run on a schedule and work even while you sleep.

Chat

The Chat tab is a command surface for everything in Starlight. Ask things like "find 10 leads that match our ICP and judge their fit" or "draft personalized outreach to my best unsent contacts." The agent uses the same tools you do — every search lands on the Search page, every draft waits in Messages.

Before recommending any send, the agent runs an independent quality judge over each draft. It will always ask for your explicit confirmation in the conversation before approving anything for sending.

Virtual SDRs

The My Agents tab manages persistent agents. Each one has a goal, an ideal customer profile, a drafting brief, a weekly lead quota, and a schedule. On each run the agent:

1. Plans a fresh search query that advances its goal (varying the angle from past runs)

2. Scores every result 0–100 against the ICP and keeps only strong fits (50+ by default)

3. Adds the keepers to Contacts and drafts a personalized sequence for each

4. Scores every draft for personalization grounding, tone, and spam signals

Every run produces a timeline you can audit — the searches it ran, the judge scores, and why leads or drafts were rejected.

Autopilot

By default, everything an agent drafts waits in Messagesfor your review — nothing sends without you. Flip an agent's Autopilot toggle and it will approve and send drafts that pass its quality bar on its own:

• Email sends from your connected Gmail or Outlook account on the normal schedule
• LinkedIn requires the Chrome extension with its own Autopilot toggle enabled — while Chrome is open, the extension sends approved LinkedIn messages automatically, capped at 25 per day to protect your account

Use Starlight from Claude Code, Codex, and other AI tools

Starlight ships a hosted MCP server, so any MCP-capable AI tool can run your prospecting and outreach. In Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http starlight https://joinstarlight.com/api/mcp

Your browser opens, you sign in to Starlight (or create an account), and approve the connection. Then just ask your AI tool things like "find 20 leads for my company" or "draft personalized outbound to 20 leads." Drafts are created for review; sending always requires the assistant to confirm with you first.

Credits

Agents use the same credit balance as the rest of Starlight. A scheduled agent that can't afford its next run skips it and retries on the next schedule.
