What this skill does
Instantly Cost and Capacity Governance Overview Produce an evidence-backed capacity and spend recommendation using live workspace billing and pricing sources. 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 Pricing and entitlements are dynamic; never hard-code a monthly price or account allowance. Workspace billing endpoints require workspacebilling read scope. Some endpoints publish independent limits or credit costs, so general API throughput is not a spend model. 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. Define the billing period, business outcome, sending-account inventory, and cost owner. 2. Read current plan and subscription details with read-only billing scope when available. 3. Measure active versus idle accounts, campaign outcomes, verification, and enrichment consumption. 4. Fetch current first-party pricing and contract terms before making a recommendation. 5. …
