# pauseContactAi

Pause AI on one contact. mode ALL: no AI employee runs, and workflow AI employee steps that come due are skipped, not deferred; MESSAGES: runs go on but no AI text, email or Slack message is suggested or sent; DRAFTS (AI off): runs and suggestions go on, every AI text, email or contract waits for a person as a card, AI calls are refused, and pausedUntil is refused. A future pausedUntil ends it on its own; null lasts until resumeContactAi. Not Do Not Contact: people can still reach them.
