Create a lead
Create a lead in Customers & Leads.
MCP tool method_crm_write → create_lead
write
Returns the new contact ID. A lead is not synced to QuickBooks until it becomes a customer, and the call sends nothing to anyone, so it does not wait for your OK. A wrong lead is removed by hand in Method.
