Ghost Agent is an AI assistant built into Ghost. Ask a question or ask for an outcome in plain English, and it looks things up and does the work: finding contacts, building campaigns, drafting messages, updating your Pipeline and scheduling posts. It asks before it changes, sends or spends anything.
Ghost Agent is available to everyone with a Ghost account. Everything it can do is also available from Claude, ChatGPT and other assistants through the Ghost MCP server.
Where to find it
- The Ghost Agent button at the bottom right of every page opens a side panel. It knows which page you're on, so "summarise this" on the Inbox means your inbox. Remove the page chip if you don't want that.
- Sidebar → Agent → Ghost Agent opens the full page with your past conversations.
What you can ask
- "What needs my attention today?"
- "Find 25 new contacts that match my ICP for my Q4 campaign."
- "How are my campaigns performing this week?"
- "Summarise replies I haven't answered yet."
- "Which deals need a follow-up this week?"
- "Set up a new campaign for my ICP and draft the messages."

How it checks with you
| Card | When you see it |
|---|---|
| Question | Your request could mean different things, or a detail is missing. Pick an option, type your own answer, or skip. |
| Plan | For bigger jobs, it shows the steps it intends to take. Approve plan, Cancel, or type to change the plan. |
| Approval | Before any change, send, launch, credit spend or delete. The card shows exactly what will happen: how many records, which LinkedIn profile sends, the credit cost and balance after, and who will be skipped. You can edit the message text, then Approve edited. |
Look-ups and drafts run straight away and appear as lines in the conversation, with a link to the record they touched.
Approval cards expire after 15 minutes and only cover exactly what was on the card.
What always asks, and what you can relax
Always asks: sending a message or email, launching or resuming a campaign, adding people to a campaign, importing or deleting contacts, spending credits, scheduling or publishing posts, posting comments, and removing deals.
Routine changes (deal updates, notes, tasks, edits) ask by default. In Ghost Agent settings (the cog icon) you can choose:
- Before every change (default)
- Only before sends, launches, spend and deletes: routine changes run straight away, unless the request involved reading prospects' messages.
On a routine card you can also click Approve and don't ask again this session.
Workspace owners and admins can switch on Team members: lookups and drafts only, so teammates can ask and draft but not change, send or spend.
Undo
Many changes have an Undo button for 24 hours: adding contacts to a campaign, creating deals, notes, tasks and campaigns, updating deals and lead statuses, pausing campaigns, deleting contacts, and ICP changes. Sent messages and published posts can't be undone.
Press Stop at any time. Anything already done stays done.
Safety
- Blacklisted contacts, contacts in Trash, daily LinkedIn limits and your credit balance are enforced by Ghost, so the agent can't work around them.
- Text written by prospects (replies, emails, profiles, posts) is treated as information, never as instructions.
- Messages the agent sends are labelled Ghost Agent in your Inbox.
- Activity log lists everything the agent did in your workspace and who approved it. Filter by Changes only or All runs, and by person.
Limits
- Up to 25 actions per request
- Messages up to 20,000 characters
- The agent only works when you ask. It doesn't run on its own. For scheduled prospecting, use the ICP Agent.
Ghost Agent uses Claude Sonnet 5.5.
FAQ
Will Ghost Agent send messages without asking me?
No. Sends, launches, credit spend, deletes and public comments always show an approval card, whatever your settings.
Does Ghost Agent cost extra?
No. It's included on every plan. Actions it takes use your normal credits and daily limits, the same as doing them yourself.
