Feature & Specification Comparison
Tools & Capabilities Breakdown
Signalpipe Tools (20)
signalpipe_get_missions
List pending leads awaiting review — score, role, channel, snippet, draft. Lean by default; opt into `include_context=true` only when drafting.
signalpipe_draft_mission
Get the drafting payload for a single mission so the host LLM can write the reply itself (BYOK path)
signalpipe_upload_draft
Upload a host-LLM-written draft to a mission
signalpipe_approve_mission
Approve a lead and queue it for outreach
signalpipe_reject_mission
Reject a lead with a reason — teaches the per-station RL loop (penalty size adapts to the reason; demotes one noisy feed without dragging the rest of the product down). **Don't** use this when the post is just gone — use `signalpipe_delete_mission` instead.
