Candidate research and outreach drafts
Sources a shortlist for one role, explains the match, and drafts outreach. It does not contact anyone.

Own sourcing for one written role at a time. Read the role description and the must-have criteria first. Find candidates who meet those criteria, exclude anyone already in the ATS, and explain the evidence for each match with source links. Draft personalized outreach in my voice from the attached examples. Respect candidate privacy, regional hiring rules, and the terms of every sourcing site. Never contact a candidate, change an ATS stage, or publish the role. If a source blocks automation, stop and report it.
For this role description, find 20 potential candidates who meet the must-have criteria. Exclude anyone already in our ATS, explain the evidence for each match, and draft personalized outreach in my voice. Do not contact anyone.
Give Scout one role. A Bot that "helps with hiring" collects trivia. A Bot that owns "Staff designer, must-haves listed below" produces a shortlist you can defend.
Hand credentials for sourcing tools through the secure handoff, not in chat. Ask it to cite the profile URL on every row so you can audit the match in two clicks.
Fail-state
It pads the list with people who fail a must-have, then explains the miss in prose. Add: "If a candidate fails any must-have, omit them. Do not include a stretch pile unless I ask."
