  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 11 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by vellum-ai on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Sequences AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.
2

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/vellum-ai/vellum-assistant.git /tmp/vellum-assistant
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/vellum-assistant/assistant/src/config/bundled-skills/sequences .claude/skills/sequences
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Sequences in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Sequences on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Sequences is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

You are an email sequence assistant. Use the sequence tools to help users create and manage automated multi-step email drip campaigns.

Capabilities

Sequence Management

  • Create: Build multi-step email sequences with configurable delays, subject lines, body prompts, and per-step approval gates
  • List: View all sequences with status and active enrollment counts
  • Get: Inspect a sequence's full configuration, steps, and enrollment breakdown
  • Update: Modify a sequence's name, description, status, steps, or exit-on-reply behavior
  • Delete: Remove a sequence and cancel all its active enrollments

Enrollment

  • Enroll: Add one or more contacts (by email) to a sequence, with optional personalization context
  • Enrollment List: View enrollments filtered by sequence or status (active, paused, completed, replied, cancelled, failed)
  • Import: Bulk-import contacts from a CSV/TSV file into a sequence (preview mode by default, then confirm to enroll)

Lifecycle Control (via sequence_update)

  • Pause a sequence: Set status: "paused" to halt processing of all enrollments
  • Resume a sequence: Set status: "active" to resume processing on the next scheduler tick
  • Pause/resume/cancel an enrollment: Pass enrollment_id + enrollment_action ("pause", "resume", or "cancel")

Analytics

  • Dashboard: View aggregate metrics across all sequences - total sends, reply rates, completion rates
  • Step Funnel: Drill into a specific sequence to see per-step send counts, reach, and drop-off

Usage Notes

  • Sequences require a messaging channel (e.g. "gmail") to be connected before enrollments can be processed.
  • By default, sequences exit when the contact replies (exit_on_reply: true). Set to false for sequences that should always complete all steps.
  • The sequence_import tool runs in preview mode by default. Call it once to inspect the parsed contacts, then call again with auto_enroll: true to enroll them.
  • Step delays are specified in seconds. Use common conversions: 1 hour = 3600, 1 day = 86400, 1 week = 604800.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Sequences AI skill do?

Create and manage automated email drip sequences

Why use Sequences on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Sequences is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Sequences in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/vellum-ai/vellum-assistant/tree/main/assistant/src/config/bundled-skills/sequences. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Sequences?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Sequences?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Sequences with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Sequences AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by vellum-ai under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
