List the trackers of the account, current versions: configuration, status, keywords, analysts, project and the recalculated cost per survey. Start here to find a tracker id. Filter by project with project_id. The ones still followed come first, then the ones filed away (archive_tracker), each with archived true and its archived_at.

Create a tracker in draft. It measures nothing yet: call start_tracker to launch it against the prepaid credit balance. Validation rules and messages are the same as the app configurator. Omitted, next_survey_at means the first survey runs at start_tracker. For a single reading with nothing running afterwards, set frequency to on_demand: start_tracker runs one survey, and the next ones come from s

Update the configuration of a tracker: only the fields you send change. Keywords, analysts and the title apply in place. Changing the prompts, engines, frequency or resolution of a version that HAS measured creates a new version: the score series continues across versions, and the response carries the new tracker id (version_created says when). A version that has not measured yet is amended in pla

Start or restart the measurement of a tracker against the prepaid credit balance. The first survey runs there and then, whatever the frequency, unless the tracker carries a next_survey_at still in the future: with one set, nothing runs until that moment, which is how a tracker comes back on a date of the person's choosing. Restarting a paused tracker picks its schedule back up, at whatever configu

Run one survey of a measuring tracker right now, on top of its schedule. Its settings stay as they are: same anchor, same frequency, and the next scheduled survey keeps its date. On a tracker whose frequency is on_demand, this is how every survey after the first one happens. It debits the prepaid credit balance like any survey, and the point joins the score series marked on_demand. The answer carr

Pause the measurement of an active tracker. The score series is kept; start_tracker resumes it.

File a finished tracker away: a campaign that ended, a brand that was sold, a trial that is over. It moves to the end of list_trackers with archived true, stops asking for anything, and its measurement pauses in the same call if it was still running, so the spending stops there. Bring it back with archived false: the tracker returns to the list as it was, and start_tracker restarts the measurement

The projects of the account: the folders trackers are filed under (one project per tracker at most; pure organization, no effect on measurement or billing). Each carries its id, name, brand canon with its current version number (canon_version), archived flag and tracker count. The folders still in use come first, then the ones filed away (archive_project). Trackers without a project live under the

Create a project to file trackers under: one project per BRAND, never per language. It can carry the brand canon: the reference wording every publication reuses as is, written in ONE language, its canonical language (carried at creation, it is recorded as canon version 1). The canon is never translated: localized expressions on the pages are outputs, not a second canon. Nothing is filed by this ca

Correct the name of a project: the folder keeps its id, its canon, its trackers, its surfaces and its logbook, and the name shown is the only thing that changes. Names are unique per account: a name another project already goes by answers project_exists with that project, so read it back and settle another name with the user. Case, accents and spacing do not make two different names, which is why

The brand canon of a project and every revision it went through. canon is the CURRENT wording, under the same keys update_project_canon writes (one_liner, short, long, category, language, perks, website, legal_name, address, phone, whatsapp, email), and canon_version its number. history carries each version newest first, with its author, its date, and changes, the fields that version touched with

Revise the brand canon of a project. Field by field: a provided field replaces the current wording (an empty string clears it), an omitted field is kept as is. Any actual change records the NEXT canon version (numbered, immutable; version_created true in the answer); sending identical wording records nothing. The canon lives in ONE language, its canonical language (canon_language): it is never tra

The addresses of the brand that a watched page can link to. Two lists come back. derived: what is already covered without anyone typing it, each row with its source, "canon" (the canonical website of the brand) or "surface" (a page of the surface registry: the site, the LinkedIn or X profile, a directory listing, an app store page). free: the addresses set on the project on top of those. Read it b

Set the addresses of the brand that are neither its canonical website nor a page of the surface registry: a satellite domain the customer does not want to keep aligned, a tracking link, a partner page. They are set ONCE for the project and serve every line of the corroboration registry, present and future, so there is nothing to set line by line. The list you send REPLACES the previous one, and th

File a project away once the folder has served its purpose: a client that left, a brand that was sold. It moves to the end of list_projects with archived true, and stops being offered when filing a tracker. Bring it back with archived false. Nothing is deleted and nothing cascades: the trackers filed under it keep their status, keep measuring and keep showing up in list_trackers, and the answer ca

The surface registry of a project: the pages about the brand where the customer has the FINAL SAY (website, GitHub, LinkedIn, X, YouTube, Wikidata, directories, app stores...). The split with corroborations is control, never who wrote the page: a page the customer can change is a surface, a page where someone else has the final say is a corroboration (list_corroborations). Each surface carries its

Register a surface of a project: one page about the brand where the customer has the final say (their site, their profiles, their listings, wherever they can change the content). The test that settles which registry a page belongs to: if the customer changes the page, does the change stay? Yes means they have the final say, so it is a surface; no means someone else has it, so it is a corroboration

Update the registry sheet of a surface: only the fields you send change (a sent languages list replaces the previous one; an empty label or notes clears it). No journal line is ever written here: an alignment is earned with tick_surface_checklist, cell by cell. Languages ARE the columns of the checklist, so declaring the language of a single-language page renames its column and carries its verifie

Record what a surface actually carries, cell by cell, as many moves as you want in one call. The items are listed by list_surfaces as checklist.items: the template of the surface type (stable keys such as title_tag or llms_txt), then the checks the customer added of their own (add_surface_check), which tick here exactly like the rest, at their key. Most of them are yours to check (a title tag, JSO

Add a check of your own to the checklist of one surface: a requirement the person holds on THAT page, in their words. It becomes REQUIRED for the page to count as aligned, exactly like the canon items of the template, and it is ticked with tick_surface_checklist at the key returned here. Reach for it whenever the person states something a page must carry that is theirs to decide: the pricing block

Correct a check of your own on a surface: its label, and whether it restates the canon. Only what you send changes. The key never moves, being the coordinate of the cells already recorded, so renaming a check keeps every tick it carries. Turning restates_canon on makes a tick recorded without a canon stamp perish, which is the honest reading: the page was never checked against a wording.

Take a check of your own out of the checklist of a surface: it leaves the list, stops holding the page short of aligned and stops accepting ticks. Use it when the requirement no longer applies to that page. Nothing is lost: the check and the cells it carries are kept, read back in checklist.custom with deleted true, and restore_surface_check brings both back, so a check taken out by mistake costs

Bring a check of your own back to the checklist of a surface, with the cells it had: it becomes work again, so the page needs it verified to count as aligned. The checks to bring back are listed by list_surfaces in checklist.custom, with deleted true. Restoring a check already in the checklist answers the same.

Take a surface out of the registry: the page stops being followed, and the registry stops asking to bring it in phase with the canon. Use it for a page that is gone (account closed, listing removed) or for a line that had no place there. The sheet and the alignment journal are kept, and restore_surface brings the surface back with them, so a line taken out by mistake costs nothing. Taking out an a

Bring a surface back to the registry, with its sheet and its alignment journal as they were. Call list_surfaces with deleted set to "only" to find the surfaces to bring back. Restoring a surface already in the registry answers the same.

Move the page to the corroboration registry: someone else has the final say on it (the customer lost, or never had, the hand on the content). Nothing is retyped: url, label and notes travel, the publication date stays unknown (set it with update_corroboration when known). The surface leaves its registry for the trash, alignment journal attached, and the reverse move exists (convert_corroboration_t

The corroborations recorded for a project: the pages about the brand where someone else has the FINAL SAY, each with its exact address, the source it sits on (domain), the publication date when known, and free notes. Live ones first, then the ones taken down (archived true). The twin registry of Surfaces, where the customer has the final say: the split is control, never who wrote the page or who p

Record a page about the brand where someone else has the final say. URL-FIRST: the exact address of the page is the only thing needed, the source on the map and the display name are derived from it. It is a statement of fact: only record a page you have actually read, and confirm with the user. A page the customer controls (their own profile, their own listing) belongs to Surfaces instead: use cre

Update the sheet of a corroboration: only the fields you send change (an empty label goes back to the derived one, an empty notes or published_on clears it). Correcting the url ALWAYS recomputes the source: the two never drift apart. It also carries monitoring, the cadence at which the page is read again on its own, which is why watching a page needs no tool of its own. To say a page is gone, use

Record that the page is no longer there (article unpublished, link dead), or put it back live with archived false. Nothing is deleted: the line stays, and so does the history, because "they talked about us from March to July" is information. A page taken down stops counting as a presence on that source. Only take down after actually re-reading the address and finding it gone.

Read the page again and report what it says today. One pass returns two findings, dated, and included at no cost. On the MENTION: the passage around the brand is archived on the line (the sentence that names it, one before, one after), and the finding says unchanged, changed (the passage moved, worth re-reading), figures (the passage moved on NUMBERS only, such as a rank or a counter: a fact to re

Move the page to the surface registry: the customer has, or takes, the final say on it (their own profile or listing recorded on the wrong side, or a source that became a reliable channel). Nothing is retyped: url, label and notes travel, the publication date is copied into the notes, the type derives from the address and the canon (a host that is neither the canon website nor a known place lands

The MENTIONS a search engine has shown the brand in, found in the text the engine itself returned next to each address. The list is recomputed on every read from the raw payloads of the latest surveys, and surveys_scanned says how many were read. Pages already filed in either registry (corroborations or surfaces) are left out. Each row carries the excerpt as proof, matched_by ("website" means the

Refuse a suggested page: it is never proposed again for this project. Use it when the excerpt matched something else than the brand, or when the page is not worth recording. Nothing is created or deleted. Accepting is the opposite move and has no tool of its own: call create_corroboration with the url of the candidate, or create_surface when the customer has the final say on it (if they change the

The logbook of a project, newest first: every dated move, composed from two sources. source=tool events are derived from the suite itself (canon moved to a version, surface marked aligned, corroboration recorded); source=manual entries are actions the customer recorded (only these carry an id, a category, a label and notes). Each move also lands as an annotation on the citation curves of the track

Record an action in the logbook of a project: what was done, and WHEN it was done. occurred_at is the date of the ACTION itself, not of the recording: recording after the fact is the normal case ("record: site translated into Spanish yesterday" means occurred_at is yesterday). The entry joins the tool events in the logbook and lands as an annotation on the citation curves of the trackers of the pr

Edit a manual logbook entry: only the fields you send change (empty notes clear them). It is the customer's own logbook: a typo or a wrong date is simply corrected. quest_id files an entry under a quest after the fact, and null files it back under the project alone. Tool events cannot be edited: they are derived from the canon and surface registries.

Take a manual logbook entry out of the logbook, and the annotation it placed on the curves with it. Only do it when the user asked for it: it is their logbook. The entry waits in the trash, so restore_logbook_entry brings it back with its annotation. Tool events stay as they are: they are derived from the canon and surface registries.

Bring an entry back to the logbook, with the annotation it placed on the curves. Call get_logbook with deleted set to "only" to find the entries to bring back. Restoring an entry already in the logbook answers the same.

What there is to do for the GEO work, and where to resume it. Lists the quests of the account: moves the customer (or you, on their behalf) decided and recorded, open by default, newest first; status=done or dismissed reads the closed history, which answers with its quests, each one reopened with reopen_quest. Every project by default; scope to one project with project_id. Alongside the open file,

Add a quest to the file of a project: a next move the customer decided, kept where the work resumes ("get our MCP server listed on the AI tool directories"). title says the move; notes carry context and links. Adding is idempotent on the project and title while the quest is open: calling again returns the quest already in the file instead of a second copy, so a retry is safe. A closed quest with t

Edit a quest: only the fields you send change (empty notes clear them). It is the customer's own file: a typo or a sharpened wording is simply corrected. The status changes through its own moves, complete_quest, dismiss_quest and reopen_quest.

Mark a quest done: the move happened. Sets the state and the closing date; calling it again leaves it done, so a retry is safe, and a dismissed quest that was done after all becomes done (the last move is what the file remembers). The quest stays readable in the closed history of list_quests, and reopen_quest puts it back in the file.

Set a quest aside: the customer decided the move is off. Sets the state and the closing date; calling it again leaves it dismissed, so a retry is safe. The quest stays readable in the closed history of list_quests, and reopen_quest puts it back in the file.

Put a closed quest back in the file: it returns among the open moves with its sheet as it was, the date it was added, its author and its notes, so a quest closed by mistake or taken up again keeps its own history. Clears the closing date; calling it again leaves it open, so a retry is safe. Call list_quests with status done or dismissed to find the quest to reopen.

The score series of a tracker: one row per analyst, keyword, engine, tracker version and survey period, in chronological order. Depending on the analyst, a row carries citation_rate and weighted_score, share_of_voice, or sentiment counts.

The raw answers of ONE AI engine for a tracker, newest surveys first, paginated. Every answer carries its cited sources and keyword mentions, plus uncited_sources (the pages the engine read without citing them) and searched (whether the engine went to the web to write that answer; null when undetermined). Set include_raw to add the full engine payload; heavy, ask for it only when needed.

The keyword suggestions DISCOVERED on a tracker: domains the surveyed engines cite as sources again and again, that no tracked keyword covers. Recomputed on every read, from the recurrences the surveys have accumulated. Also carries dismissed, the domains this tracker has set aside: what was refused stays readable, so you can restore one with restore_keyword_discovery if the user changes their min

Accept one discovered suggestion (domain) or a batch (domains): each becomes a tracked keyword of the tracker, in place, and its series starts at the next survey. Refused with keyword_cap_reached when the batch would exceed the keyword cap, and with not_found when a domain is not currently suggested (the batch is all-or-nothing, nothing is added then). The answer carries keyword for a single domai

Dismiss one discovered suggestion (domain) or a batch (domains): the domains are never proposed again on this tracker, and appear in the dismissed list until restored. All-or-nothing on unknown domains: one that is not currently suggested refuses the whole batch (not_found). Dismissing an already dismissed domain is fine, it does not fail the batch. The answer carries dismissed as the domain for a

Restore one dismissed domain (domain) or a batch (domains): it leaves the tracker dismissed list and becomes eligible for discovery again, suggested anew while the engines keep citing it (accepting it stays a distinct move). The counterpart of dismiss, for when the user changes their mind. Idempotent and never refused: restoring a domain that was not dismissed simply leaves it eligible. The answer

The competitor scans of the account, newest first: a basket of up to 5 companies of one market, asked to one engine, from which the scan returns THE PLACES that corroborate them. `status` says where each one stands: draft (questions still open, nothing charged), measuring, ready (there is a list to read), failed. `rescan_cadence` says whether it repeats. Without the list of places, which the fiche

One scan and its list of PLACES: the domains the engine cited while answering about the basket, ranked by how many of its companies each place covers (`subjects`, the number that carries the tool) then by AI Authority. Each place carries `reach`, the way in: self_serve (open your own page there), participate (a forum or a community), ask (a third-party editorial site, the most frequent), registry

Prepare a competitor scan on a basket of up to 5 companies of the same market. Three or more is what the scan is built for: from there the places rank by RECURRENCE, that is by how many companies of the basket each one covers. It is created as a DRAFT: nothing is charged, and the questions it derives come back in the answer for you to read before arming it with start_competitor_scan. Each subject

Arm a prepared scan: the engine is asked, and the prepaid balance is debited by the amount `estimated_cost_minor` announced on the scan. SPENDS: read that amount to the person and get their go-ahead before calling. The answers land within a few minutes; read the places back with get_competitor_scan. Safe to replay: a scan already armed answers with itself instead of paying for a second one.

Correct a scan still in draft, and set the cadence of one already armed. `questions` is where the measurement is won: send the questions to KEEP, with the wording you want asked. A question of the scan left out of the list is removed, and the amount announced by `estimated_cost_minor` follows, so this is also how the person spends less. Nothing is charged until start_competitor_scan, so rewriting

The Atlas: the sources the AIs cite when they answer YOUR trackers. Each entry is a domain with its AI Authority on each AI, a 0 to 100 scale over the last 30 days where 100 is the source that AI cites the most. An engine with no value has not cited the domain lately, which is not a zero. Each AI has its own leader, so its own scale: each column ranks the sources on its own AI, the rankings being

One entry of the Atlas, read by its id: the domain and its AI Authority on each AI. Call list_sources to find a source id, or to read the same entries filtered and ranked.

The channels behind one source of the Atlas: who published the videos the AIs cited when answering the questions of this account, with their videos and the questions that surfaced each one. The unit of the Atlas is the registrable domain, so a video host is one source however many people publish on it; this reads the level below, the one where the work happens, since a channel is what you contact.

The settings of the account: the legal name, billing country, postal address and intra-EU VAT number printed on its invoices, plus the language we write to it in and the time zone its hours are shown in. `member` names the person the language and the time zone belong to. Read it before update_account_settings: the answer gives every setting as it stands, so you change the one the user named and le

Change the settings of the account. Send only what the user is changing: every setting you leave out keeps its value. `billing_country`, `billing_address` and `intra_eu_vat_number` clear when you send null; `name`, `language` and `timezone` keep their value on null, so name the language or the time zone you want. A postal address and a VAT number travel with `billing_country`: send the country in

The prepaid credit balance of the account: available credits, which never expire, and the amount reserved by surveys in progress with the detail of each reservation. Read it before starting a tracker, or when a call fails with insufficient_credits. It also carries what a top-up is worth here, so you never have to work it out: `monthly_estimate_minor` is what the account has set up to consume in a

What the account SPENDS: one call, three answers, and they must never be mixed up. (1) THIS MONTH, a FORECAST: `this_month_forecast` gives `total_minor` for the month in progress, which is `spent_minor` (already debited) plus `remaining_minor` (what the active trackers and monitored corroborations will still run before month end, counted as real occurrences and recomputed from their configuration)

Prepare a top-up of the prepaid credit balance and return the hosted payment link. Nothing is charged by this call: hand payment_url to the user, the payment happens there, and they approve the amount on that page. When the user names an amount, that amount wins: pass it as `amount`, exactly the number they said. Amounts are always in the wallet currency of the account, which get_credits gives: if
