Then give one https link to the Connect page with the form filled in: `https://marziale.tech/connect#track=TRACK&email=EMAIL&message=SUMMARY` TRACK is `operator` or `talent`. URL-encode EMAIL and SUMMARY. Keep SUMMARY under 3000 characters. Do not put a phone number in it. Tell the person: "Open the link, check the form, then press Send." 8. Do not give a mailto link. Many chat apps block it. 9. Do not say that you sent it if you did not send it. ## With the MCP server 1. Call `get_questions` first. Use its questions and choices word for word. 2. If your app shows pickers, call `ask_with_picker`. If not, ask in chat. 3. Use the opening and the rules for the path in this file. 4. Call `check_draft`. It sends nothing. Show its review and ask the person to confirm it or correct it. 5. Show the three lines from "Summary and send", step 3. Ask: "Do you want me to send this?" 6. Only if the person says yes, call `submit` with `review_shown`, `legal_and_privacy_shown`, and `person_said_yes` set to `true`.
