Logging Activity After a Call
You just finished a call and need to record what happened — the key takeaways, any decisions made, and any follow-up actions — without switching tabs or filling out forms.
What to say to Claude
"Log a call with Sarah Chen. We discussed the Northvale role — she's interested but wants to wait until after her bonus in April. Schedule a follow-up call for April 15."
What happens
- loxo_search_candidates — Claude searches for "Sarah Chen" and finds her person ID

Tips
- Log different activity types: "Log an email with Marcus Rivera about the Greenfield offer" or "Log a meeting with the Northvale hiring manager"
- Link to a company: "Log a call with Sarah Chen at Ridgepoint Partners about the Northvale role" — Claude will associate the activity with both the candidate and the company
- Batch multiple activities: "Log calls with Sarah Chen, Marcus Rivera, and Priya Nair — here's what we discussed with each..."
- Skip the job link if it's a general check-in: "Log a call with David Park — just a quick intro, he's open to hearing about opportunities"
