Implementation Reference
- src/index.ts:1463-1495 (handler)Handler function for the 'track_competitor_activity' tool. Validates input, generates mock competitor social media data (posts, engagement, promotions), and returns formatted tracking report. Currently uses simulated data; production would integrate real API tracking.
case 'track_competitor_activity': { const competitors = String(args?.competitors || ''); const metrics = String(args?.metrics || 'posts,engagement'); if (!competitors) { return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: `ā Please provide competitor page names to track.` }] }; } const competitorList = competitors.split(',').map(c => c.trim()); const metricsList = metrics.split(',').map(m => m.trim()); // Mock competitor data const mockData = competitorList.map(comp => ({ name: comp, postsThisWeek: Math.floor(Math.random() * 10) + 3, avgEngagement: Math.floor(Math.random() * 200) + 50, recentPromotion: Math.random() > 0.5 ? 'Yes - Sale on brushes' : 'No recent promotions' })); return { content: [{ type: 'text', text: `š Competitor Activity Tracking\nš Metrics: ${metricsList.join(', ')}\n\n${mockData.map(comp => `š ${comp.name}\n š Posts this week: ${comp.postsThisWeek}\n š¬ Avg engagement: ${comp.avgEngagement}\n šÆ Promotions: ${comp.recentPromotion}` ).join('\n\n')}\n\nš” Note: This is a demonstration feature. In production, this would track public competitor pages to help you stay competitive.` }] }; } - src/index.ts:499-510 (schema)Tool schema definition including input validation for competitors (required) and optional metrics.
