Install and Authenticate Instantly Tooling

Overview

Establish a reproducible server-side client without leaking a key or granting unnecessary scopes. Record assumptions, evidence, approval state, and rollback ownership so another operator can reproduce the result.

Prerequisites

• The target repository, Instantly workspace, environment, and accountable owner
• Current security, privacy, compliance, capacity, and change-control requirements
• An approved API v2 key only when a bounded live verification is necessary

Tool Discipline

Use Read, Glob, and Grep to inspect code, configuration, and evidence. Use WebFetch only for current first-party Instantly documentation and package metadata. Use Write or Edit only when implementation was requested and exact target files are known; never write credentials, lead data, email content, or unrestricted environment output.

Current Contract

• The official TypeScript SDK is @instantlyai/sdk beta and requires Node.js 22 or later.
• The official CLI is @instantlyai/cli and supports INSTANTLY_API_KEY for non-interactive use.
• API v2 keys are displayed once and are not compatible with API v1.

Authentication

Use an API v2 key as Authorization: Bearer <key> against https://api.instantly.ai/api/v2. Grant only the endpoint-specific scopes needed, inject the key from an approved server-side secret manager, and never print, persist, commit, or place it in a URL. Treat key creation, rotation, revocation, member changes, workspace delegation, and production access as owner-approved actions.

Instructions

1. Inspect the repository runtime, package manager, lockfile, and existing Instantly client.
2. Choose HTTP, SDK, or CLI deliberately and verify current first-party installation guidance.
3. Pin a compatible version; use the SDK beta tag only while the first-party docs require it.
4. Create a key with only the exact endpoint scopes and store it in an approved secret manager.
5. Verify with one bounded read-only request and distinguish 401 from 403.
6. Record versions, workspace identity, scopes, evidence, rotation owner, and rollback.

Approval Boundaries

Do not create, rotate, reveal, or revoke keys; invite or remove members; delegate across workspaces; connect sending accounts; create or activate campaigns; import or delete leads; change suppression or retention; register, patch, resume, or delete webhooks; alter plans or paid capacity; transmit diagnostics; or perform another production mutation without explicit approval from the accountable owner. Keep diagnosis read-only unless implementation was requested.

Output

Return the workspace-safe scope, files and contracts inspected, exact API v2 routes and required scopes, evidence collected, validation result, sensitive fields redacted, remaining risk, accountable owner, approval state, and rollback or next action.

Error Handling

Examples

Use a compact handoff that makes scope, mutation authority, and evidence reviewable.

Input:

client=sdk; runtime=node22; scopes=campaigns:read

Expected handoff:

package=@instantlyai/sdk; auth=pass; key=redacted
