Agent setup prompt

Replace HubSpot/Salesforce with Twenty (preferred) or Krayin CRM, plus n8n.

- Model companies, people, and one pipeline that matches how the team actually sells.
- n8n: new inbound form → CRM record; stage=won → Resend + Slack.
- Import CSV from HubSpot. Do not recreate every custom object on day one.
