Documentation

How the team works under the hood

Each card opens the plain-language story of one engine that makes your team smart. This is the backstage view: what runs where, why it is fast, and how it learns you.

API registry

The tools the team plugs into

Every outside service and internal capability the team uses: what it does, whether its key is live, the free-tier ceiling, what it costs, and which teammates call it. Internal endpoints are tools your team owns; each wraps one or more outside providers so any agent can reach a capability without new wiring.

Pipeline documentation

How the Pharos Lumen team works

This is the operating manual for your team. It explains, in plain language, what each teammate does, how a lead travels from "company we have never heard of" to "signed agreement," why the system exists, what it took off your plate, and exactly what it costs to run. No jargon required.

The short version

  • You have a team of ten specialists that runs your outreach pipeline for you, end to end.
  • They work in four stages (find, reach out, follow up, close), with one lead (Chief-of-Staff) that reports up to you.
  • The cheap, repetitive work runs for free on a model on your own machine (Qwen). The work that needs real judgment or your voice runs on a paid model (Claude).
  • You stay at the top. Nothing goes to a real person without your say-so; the team does the legwork and hands you decisions, not chores.

Why we built this

Running outreach by hand has a leak: the boring-but-critical steps (chasing follow-ups, fact-checking claims, tracking who went quiet) are exactly the ones a busy person drops first. That is what killed momentum before. The team exists to make those steps automatic and reliable, so the pipeline keeps moving even on the days you are heads-down on client work.

Before: you personally found companies, researched each one, wrote every email, checked every fact, remembered every follow-up, triaged every reply, prepped every call, and drafted every proposal. The pipeline only moved when you had time.

After: the team does the finding, drafting, checking, chasing, and prep. You do the judgment: approve a draft, take the call, make the final call. The pipeline moves whether or not you had a free hour.

How the pipeline works, end to end

A lead moves through four levels. Each teammate hands its output to the next, like a relay.

  • Level 1 - Find. The Researcher watches the market for companies showing buying signals (new funding, AI hiring, tool churn). The Prospector takes those signals, confirms each company is a real fit, and writes a research profile.
  • Level 2 - Reach out. The Personalizer writes the cold email and warm close in your voice, tuned to that company's specific gap. The Fact-Auditor then checks every claim in it against a source and blocks anything it cannot verify, so nothing wrong ever reaches a prospect.
  • Level 3 - Follow up. The Pipeline-Monitor watches every deal and your inbox daily and flags what needs action. When a follow-up comes due, the Sequencer drafts it in your voice. When a reply lands, the Reply-Handler sorts it and drafts a response. This level is what stops deals from going cold.
  • Level 4 - Close. The Closer-Prep turns a prospect into a one-page discovery-call brief (the likely pain, the questions to ask). After the call, the Proposer turns your notes into a finished statement of work.
  • The lead. Above all four levels, the Chief-of-Staff reads what everyone did and gives you one short briefing: what the team did, what needs you, what is in flight. If nothing needs you, it stays quiet.
The level tag on each card (LEAD, L1 to L4) tells you which teammates belong on the same rung. If you rearrange the flow map, that tag is how you know which ones are supposed to sit next to each other.

The team, one by one

TeammateLevelWhat it does for you
Chief-of-StaffLeadReads the whole team's work and gives you one daily briefing. Surfaces only what needs you.
ResearcherL1Scans the market daily for companies showing buying signals and writes a weekly read on where the opportunity is.

What runs on what, and the cost

AI models charge by the "token," which is roughly a chunk of a word the model reads or writes. Two kinds of model run this team:

  • QWEN A model running on your own machine. It is free to run, no matter how many tokens. Best for high-volume, repetitive, lower-stakes work.
  • CLAUDE A paid model (billed per token), used where quality, your voice, or careful judgment is worth paying for.

The rule of thumb we follow: free local model first, pay for Claude only where it clearly earns its keep (your voice in client-facing copy, or judgment where a mistake is costly).

Consumption audit: where we could move work to the free model

This is a review of every teammate using paid Claude today and whether the free local model could do the job instead.

TeammateRuns on todayCould Qwen do it?Recommendation
ResearcherQwen daily + Claude weeklyDaily yes; weekly is a judgment callKeep as is. The free model already does the daily scan; the weekly "where is the opportunity" call is worth Claude.
ProspectorClaudePartlyHybrid Let Qwen draft the profile; keep Claude for the fit decision so we do not chase bad-fit companies.
PersonalizerClaudeNoKeep Claude. This is your voice going to a real prospect. Quality is the product.
Fact-AuditorClaudeNoKeep Claude. This is the guardrail that catches wrong claims. Do not weaken it to save pennies.
Pipeline-MonitorCode + QwenAlready freeNo change. Already optimal.
SequencerTiered (Qwen / Haiku / Sonnet)Already smart about itNo change. Uses the cheapest model that can hold your voice.
Reply-HandlerQwen sort + Claude draftAlready splitNo change. Sorting is free; only the reply draft pays for voice.
Closer-PrepClaudeYesMove to Qwen. It is an internal brief only you read, so the cost of a small miss is low. Good free-model candidate.
ProposerClaudeMostlyHybrid Let Qwen fill the statement of work; an optional light Claude polish before it goes out.
Chief-of-StaffQwen daily + Claude weeklyLikely yesTry Qwen weekly too. The numbers are calculated in code; the model only phrases them, which the free model handles well.
Bottom line: the clean wins are Closer-Prep and the Chief-of-Staff weekly briefing, both internal and low-stakes, which can move to the free model now. Prospector and Proposer are good hybrids (free draft, paid where it counts). The three that should stay on paid Claude are the ones carrying your voice to prospects (Personalizer) and the fact-checking guardrail (Fact-Auditor), plus the Researcher's weekly judgment. Everything else is already running as cheaply as it sensibly can.

How you drive it

  • The dashboard (this page) shows every teammate grouped by level, lit up live when working.
  • Flow view (bottom-right button) opens the pipeline as a map you can explore and rearrange, with each teammate's connections to the others.
  • The directive console (inside any teammate's panel) lets you hand a teammate a custom job. It queues a real run; nothing is faked.
End-to-end workflow

Agent team workflow

How the team actually brings in clients, stage by stage: who does what, what runs on its own, what you trigger, and exactly how to start. This is the single reference for the whole pipeline.

The one rule

You only ever talk to the Chief-of-Staff. You never open another teammate's card to make it work. You tell the Chief-of-Staff what you want or what happened, in plain language, and it works the team and brings results back to you. Every output lands in your review queue. Nothing reaches a real person without your approval.

The funnel, stage by stage

"Auto" runs on a schedule without you. "You trigger" means you ask the Chief-of-Staff, or it prompts you first.

How a company becomes a tracked prospect

This is the seam between research and the automated machine, and it is manual today. The team only works prospects that exist as records (with a contact email and a status). A company becomes one of those in two ways:

  • You add it through the dashboard or pipeline, with a contact email (from your own research or a tool like Hunter.io). Profiling a company with Prospector produces a research document, not a record, so adding it is a separate step.
  • It comes in inbound through the website contact form, and you promote it to a prospect from the inbox.
Once a company is a tracked prospect with an email, everything from outreach onward (stages 3 to 10) runs as described. The unbuilt piece is auto-sourcing: a feed that discovers fit companies and creates these records for you. Until then, you bring the list.

What runs on its own

Every morning, 8:00 AMThe whole teamResearcher, Pipeline-Monitor, Reply-Handler run; Sequencer drafts due follow-ups; Chief-of-Staff writes the daily brief

Mondays, 8:30 AMChief-of-Staff weeklyA higher-altitude weekly read
So the team works the pipeline every morning on its own, and reacts to replies and your instructions within 5 minutes through the day.

Automated vs you

Automated, no action from you: daily market research, watching who is due and drafting the follow-up, pulling in replies and pre-drafting a response, fact-checking every prospect-facing draft, the daily brief and live "what needs you" list, and advancing a prospect's stage when you tell it what happened.

You decide and you trigger: which companies to target (you ask Prospector), approving and sending every email (nothing auto-sends), asking for a cold email, call prep, or a SOW, and telling the Chief-of-Staff what happened so it can move a prospect forward.

Rule of thumb: the team does the legwork and the drafting; you make the calls and you press Send.

What you can test now vs what waits for a reply

The true end to end only completes when a real prospect replies. But the entire front half can be run today, with no prospect needed.

  • Testable now (front half): source targets (Prospector), read angles (Researcher in the brief), draft outreach (Personalizer), send from the inbox Drafts tab, and confirm the auto follow-ups appear once a prospect is marked Sent.
  • Waits for a real reply (back half): the reply comes in and Reply-Handler drafts a response, you log the discovery call and the Chief-of-Staff offers the SOW, Proposer drafts it, and you log "signed" or "passed" to close it out.

How to start (first run)

Do this in order. Each is one message to the Chief-of-Staff unless noted.

  • 1. Pick targets. Read Researcher's suggested sectors in the Daily Brief, and decide which companies to go after. Optionally have Prospector profile a few ("profile [company]") to sharpen your angle.
  • 2. Add them to the pipeline. Add each chosen company as a prospect with a contact email (dashboard, or promote an inbound one). This is the manual step that puts them on the machine.
  • 3. Draft the first emails. "Draft outreach to [company]" for each. Each comes back fact-checked.
  • 4. Send. In the inbox Drafts tab, review and click Send. Send one to yourself first to confirm the path.
  • 5. Let the team carry it. Once a prospect is marked Sent, follow-ups draft themselves on schedule; you review and send each when it appears.
  • 6. React through one door. Replies show in your Replies tab with a suggested answer. After a call, tell the Chief-of-Staff "had a discovery call with [company]" and it walks you to the SOW.

Honest status

  • Real and tested: sending an email lands in your Sent (verified live). The daily cycle, the 5-minute runner, reply pull-in, stage automation, and the brief are wired.
  • Real but not yet run on real output: Personalizer (cold email), Closer-Prep (call brief), and Proposer (SOW) were wired recently; their engines work but the actual drafts have not been judged on a real prospect.
  • Still manual / not built: auto-sourcing new fit companies from market feeds is the biggest unbuilt piece, so you bring the target list. Turning a researched company into a tracked prospect record is a manual add. The full chain from cold email to signed SOW has not run against a live reply, because that needs a real person to reply.
  • The plan: bring a first batch of prospects in by hand, run the outreach and follow-ups, refine the drafts from what you see, and let the back half prove out as replies arrive. Auto-sourcing comes after the rest is proven.
