# Sequence Architect Designing a cadence from scratch is harder than it looks because most cadences are 4-5 lightly varied versions of the same message with different subject lines. Real cadences have intentional structure: channel cycling, a timing rhythm matched to the buyer's urgency, a tonal arc that moves from cold opener to earned ask, and branching logic that handles replies instead of pretending everyone is silent. This skill builds that structure before writing a word. ## When to use - Starting a new outbound motion with a defined ICP and offer - Expanding into a new segment (new company size, new role, new vertical) that won't respond to your existing cadence - ICP and offer are locked - this skill consumes their output directly; do not run it before those are clear - Rebuilding an existing sequence that isn't working and you want to start from scratch rather than audit individual touches (for auditing, use `sequence-doctor`) ## When NOT to use - You already have a running cadence and want to find what's broken - use `sequence-doctor` - You're drafting one high-leverage opener for a specific account - use `icebreaker` alone - You don't have a concrete ICP or offer - run `icp-definer` and `offer-clarifier` first; the cadence will be wrong if fed vague inputs ## Use this instead - For drafting an individual high-leverage opener -> `icebreaker` - For auditing and fixing an EXISTING cadence -> `sequence-doctor` - For building the list of people to send the cadenc
