Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| search_app_storeA | Search Apple App Store apps by keyword. Returns slim results (id, name, developer, rating, price) - use get_app_store_app for the full profile of a specific app. |
| get_app_store_appA | Fetch the full public App Store profile for one app by numeric ID or apps.apple.com URL. Page-sourced fields (subtitle, has_iap, privacy) are best-effort; set include_page_data=false to skip that second request. Set include_raw=true to also get Apple's unmodified lookup payload (large - only when normalized fields are not enough). |
| compare_app_store_appsA | Fetch full profiles for multiple apps (IDs or apps.apple.com URLs) in one batch for side-by-side competitor comparison. Returns the profiles plus per-app errors; apps that fail do not fail the whole call. |
| get_app_store_chartsA | Fetch ranked top-chart apps for a storefront. Best-effort: sourced from an undocumented Apple RSS feed. |
| get_app_store_reviewsA | Fetch recent public customer reviews for an app. Best-effort: sourced from an undocumented Apple feed capped at ~500 reviews per storefront, with a small page-sourced fallback when the feed is empty. Reviews are per-country. |
| digest_app_store_reviewsA | Fetch up to |
| get_app_store_screenshotsA | Fetch an app's App Store screenshots as actual images, so you can
analyze visual positioning, onboarding style, and paywall design
directly. Returns up to |
