## What it does

The plugin connects Claude Code to Overloop API v2 using the `overloop-cli` utility. The agent can inspect lists, register prospects, organize company profiles, and trigger outbound sequences. Every command outputs JSON data. This format makes parsing straightforward for language models.

Authentication relies on an Overloop API key. You can store credentials in `~/.overloop/config.json` via `overloop login` or provide the `OVERLOOP_API_KEY` environment variable. The CLI is currently in beta, so tool signatures may change across releases.

Campaign steps created individually require the `--previous-step-id` parameter to chain sequentially. If omitted, steps fail to display in the Overloop web UI. Defining inline step sequences directly inside `campaigns:create` avoids manual linking errors.

## Install

# Overloop CLI

[![npm version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/overloop-cli.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/overloop-cli) [![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)

> ⚠️ **Beta Notice:** This CLI is currently in beta. APIs and tool interfaces may change between versions. Please report any issues on [GitHub](https://github.com/sortlist/overloop-cli/issues).

**Sales automation CLI for developers and AI agents** — Manage prospects, campaigns, sourcings, and more from the terminal.

The Overloop CLI provides a command-line interface to the Overloop API v2, enabling developers and AI agents to automate sales outreach workflows programmatically.

---

## Installation

```bash
npm install -g overloop-cli
```

### For AI Agents

Install the Overloop skill for your AI agent (Cursor, Claude Code, etc.):

```bash
npx skills add sortlist/overloop-cli
```

This installs the SKILL.md which gives your agent full knowledge of the CLI commands, patterns, and workflows.

---

## Authentication

The recommended way to authenticate is the interactive login command:

```bash
overloop login
```

This prompts for your API key (get it from **Settings > API Keys** in your Overloop dashboard), validates it, and saves it to `~/.overloop/config.json`.

Alternatively, set the `OVERLOOP_API_KEY` environment variable (takes priority over saved config):

```bash
export OVERLOOP_API_KEY=your_api_key
```

To remove saved credentials:

```bash
overloop logout
```

## Commands

### Prospects

```bash
overloop prospects:list [--page N] [--per-page N] [--sort field] [--search text] [--filter '{"key":"value"}'] [--expand relations]
overloop prospects:get <id>                  # ID or email address
overloop prospects:create --email john@example.com --first-name John --last-name Doe
overloop prospects:create --data '{"email":"john@example.com","first_name":"John"}'
overloop prospects:update <id> --first-name Jane
overloop prospects:delete <id>
```

### Organizations

```bash
overloop organizations:list [--search text] [--filter '{"country":"US"}']
overloop organizations:get <id>
overloop organizations:create --name "Acme Corp" --website https://acme.com
overloop organizations:update <id> --name "New Name"
overloop organizations:delete <id>
```

### Lists

```bash
overloop lists:list [--search text]
overloop lists:get <id>
overloop lists:create --name "Hot Leads"
overloop lists:update <id> --name "Warm Leads"
overloop lists:delete <id>
```

### Campaigns

```bash
overloop campaigns:list [--filter '{"status":"on"}']
overloop campaigns:get <id> [--expand steps,sourcing]
overloop campaigns:create --name "Q1 Outreach" --timezone "Etc/UTC"
overloop campaigns:create --name "Q1" --auto-enroll --sourcing-id <id>   # auto-enroll sourced prospects
overloop campaigns:create --data '{"name":"Q1 Outreach","steps":[{"type":"delay","config":{"days_delay":5}}]}'
overloop campaigns:update <id> --status on
overloop campaigns:update <id> --auto-enroll       # enable auto-enrollment
overloop campaigns:update <id> --no-auto-enroll    # switch back to manual

# Replacing the steps of a campaign prospects are enrolled in disenrolls them
overloop campaigns:update <id> --data '{"steps":[...]}' --confirm-disenroll
overloop campaigns:delete <id>
```

### Campaign Steps (require `--campaign`)

> **Important:** When creating steps individually, you **must** chain each step to the previous one using `--previous-step-id`. Without chaining, steps will not appear in the Overloop UI. The recommended approach is to use inline steps with `campaigns:create --data '{"steps":[...]}'`.

```bash
overloop steps:list --campaign <id>
overloop steps:get <step_id> --campaign <id>

# Preferred: inline steps in campaigns:create (chaining is automatic)
overloop campaigns:create --data '{"name":"My Campaign","steps":[{"type":"delay","config":{"days_delay":1}},{"type":"email","config":{"generate_with_ai":true}}]}'

# Individual creation — must chain with --previous-step-id
