AfterLaunch: the agentic growth marketing engine

Accept a move only after the founder says yes. This records one durable preparation attempt and may start the configured worker only when launch_won is true. A repeat never starts another worker. Free; requires the 'act' scope.

Archive a growth move: a lighter dismissal than skip, with no verdict recorded. Free; requires the 'act' scope. Idempotent on an already-archived move.

Create a Founder-tier checkout link for THIS product run, the way to unlock the Founder-only growth controls and more metered marketing work. Returns a checkout_url the founder opens to pay; the upgrade lands automatically once payment succeeds. Reachable on a free trial because it is the path TO Founder. Requires the 'act' scope, and it is always bound to your own enrollment.

Create a credit top-up checkout link for THIS product run, to refill the credits that pay for metered growth marketing work. Pass pack_id: small, medium or large. Returns a checkout_url the founder opens to pay; the credits land automatically once payment succeeds. Requires the 'act' scope and the Founder plan (on a free trial use create_checkout first). Always bound to your own enrollment.

Disconnect a growth data source or distribution channel and delete the credential stored for it (for Google it is also revoked at Google). Idempotent: disconnecting something that was never connected changes nothing. It narrows what the growth engine can measure and where it can distribute, so confirm with the founder first. Free.

Set aside one AI visibility (GEO) gap the founder is not going to act on: a tracked question where rivals get named and this product does not. The same verdict as skip_move, on the AI visibility surface, and it resolves the gap in ONE place: it stops being re-proposed here AND on the growth Feed, and the reason improves what gets ranked next. Free; requires the 'act' scope, and available on every plan because telling the agent "not this one" is never a paid feature. Idempotent: a gap already shipped or archived is left as it is.

The product timeline: what the growth agent and the founder already did and why (drafts, ships, skips, scans, observations, decisions with their rationale), newest first. Read before acting so you never redo recent work. Read-only, free.

Structured business positioning, audience, ICP, pricing, features and competitors, plus growth_strategy: the latest saved stage, bottleneck, bets and non-goals with version, source and date. Read before planning or writing. Strategy is dated judgement, not measured evidence or proof of results; check it against current founder intent. Missing facts or strategy are null. Read-only and free; never generates or revises a strategy.

The claim library: the measured numbers this founder will stand behind in public, for replies, posts and any marketing writing. Each carries the claim in one sentence, the number with its unit, keywords saying when it is relevant, and a caveat stated against the founder's own interest. READ THIS BEFORE CITING ANY NUMBER about this product, and never quote a claim without its caveat: the caveat is what makes the number safe to say. A claim marked held is NOT for use. An empty library is an answer, not an error. Read-only, free.

The competitor roster with the measured stat battery for you and each rival (performance, SEO, Core Web Vitals, authority, G2 and Product Hunt presence, content freshness), plus the founder's own edits. Read before any competitor or outreach work so a rival is never treated as a pitch target. Read-only, free.

Growth content calendar, source drafts, current Feed state and X production switch. Read-only. Check linkage and calendar_sync; saved words are not publication proof.

The product run summary for this growth engine: product_url, tier, trial_ends_at, timezone, whether autonomous work is active, and delivery settings. Credits once metering is live. Read-only, free.

Growth content experiments already run, newest first, with scoped evidence. Read-only; never runs one. Each is an observation, not a rate.

One Memory page by slug, with its full markdown body: the record the growth marketing engine drafts from. Slugs come from list_kb_pages. Read-only, free.

The automated growth marketing loops provisioned for this product (AI visibility, competitors, channel distribution) with their autonomy level, plus runnable_loop_types, what run_loop accepts. A runnable type only runs once a loop of that type is provisioned and enabled here.

One growth move: evidence, source material, instructions and prepared_result. linked_article is earlier work to reuse, not a completed revision. Ready means awaiting review, not published. Closed post-trial access withholds bodies without asserting absence. tracked_link_state explains a null link (no_link, unavailable, withheld); null clicks means unreadable. Read-only, free.

What the shipped growth moves earned: tracked-link clicks per move, shipped counters, the weekly movement scoreboard, and whether GA4 and Search Console are connected. Call it after ship_move. Read-only, free.

Read a queue draft by id. SEO linked_article {id,title,content} adds the full Markdown article. redraft_output edits the queue draft only.

Did the growth work move anything? The proof read for a period: AI visibility (GEO) at the START and the END of the window, the moves shipped between them, the scans that ran, and the receipts with what was verified live and the clicks each earned. ALWAYS read like_for_like before reporting a change: true means both scans asked the same tracked questions so the movement is real, false means the question set changed inside the window so it is a new baseline rather than a rise or a fall, and null means it cannot be proven either way. Never present a delta as a result when like_for_like is not true. Read-only, free.

The site-wide SEO audit: issue groups with severity and affected pages, the weekly score trend, page performance, links and authority, and day-0 search ranks. Read before any SEO work of your own; the Feed seo_fix moves are minted from it. Read-only, free. Pass include_pages for the per-page detail.

The paste-able 'Growth (AfterLaunch)' section for this repository's CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md: how a coding agent should use AfterLaunch for growth, marketing, SEO, AI visibility (GEO), competitor and distribution work, and which tools cost money. Free, read-only. Show it to the founder and add it with their say-so.

The Growth Snapshot this product run started from: positioning, the discoverability score, the prioritised leverage actions, the competitor set, and the day-0 SEO and AI visibility baselines. The stable business context; for live signal data use get_visibility and get_seo. Read-only, free.

The daily growth marketing standup in one call: what recently shipped and what AfterLaunch verified about it (receipts), the top ranked moves shippable now (ready; rank is the full-board position, so gaps mean those ranks are not shippable now), what the engine did on its own in the last 7 days (while_you_were_gone; capped at the account's age), and whether the deep scan is still running. Call this at the START of a session, before list_feed, and relay the message field. Read-only, free.

The measured AI visibility (GEO) results: how ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity and Google AI Overviews answer the tracked buyer questions, plus share of voice, cited sources, competitor-owned gaps, the trend, AI crawlability and the off-site reach fold. Every reading carries its own sample count, and the sampling block says what such a count licenses, so treat a change as indicative unless it says otherwise. Read after refresh_scan and before any AI visibility or GEO work. Read-only, free. Pass prompt_id to drill into one question.

The structured voice every AfterLaunch growth marketing draft is written in: tone, characteristic phrases, vocabulary, sentence style and what it avoids. register says which you got, and they do not sound alike: brand is the website's voice, personal is the founder's own writing, imported came from a brief. has_profile false means that voice is not extracted yet: an answer, not an error. Read-only, free.

Which growth data sources and distribution channels are connected: GA4 and Search Console (the measurement behind SEO and outcomes), Google Business Profile, and the LinkedIn / Reddit posting channels. Each row carries an honest state: connected, not_connected, or not_available with the reason it is shut on this account. Read before start_connection so you never offer a connection that cannot be made. Read-only, free.

The ranked backlog of growth marketing moves prepared for this product across SEO, AI visibility (GEO), competitors and distribution: title, why, area, status, rank, whether readable full-draft material is waiting (has_draft), and draft_kind (a full draft, a brief to complete, or null). It also carries posture: who may do it, act (you can), draft_only (you draft, a person posts) or founder_voice (the founder only). Read it before improvising growth work of your own. The material BODY is not here: call get_move for the one you are working on. Live moves only unless you pass include_resolved; pass since for what is new while the deep scan fills the board. Read-only.

The Memory pages: the shared record the growth marketing engine drafts from (business basics, audience, competitors, voice samples, recent observations). Summaries with a size hint; fetch a body with get_kb_page. Read-only, free.

The drafted marketing and distribution content produced for this product, newest first: id, loop_type, kind, status and title. Use an id with get_output for the body. Read-only, free.

Unclaimed preparation jobs, oldest first. Each row carries job_id and its nullable attempt_id. Call pick_up_job with both exact values before starting. Queue summaries never include prepared_content. Free; requires the 'act' scope.

The buyer questions AfterLaunch tracks: the AI visibility (GEO) question set every measurement is taken against. Returns prompts in tracking order, cap (a hard 15) and used, plus curated: false means AfterLaunch generated them and any can be replaced. Read before track_prompt or untrack_prompt so you never duplicate a question or guess at the room left. Read-only, free, on every plan.

Try to claim one queued preparation attempt. Pass job_id and the exact nullable attempt_id from list_queue. Start work only when the response says claim_won:true. An unchanged result is a non-winner and must not start work. Free; requires the 'act' scope.

Did the founder finish connecting the growth data source you handed them a link for? Pass the poll_token start_connection returned. Reports pending (wait poll_after_seconds and ask again), connected, expired (mint a fresh link) or not_found. Idempotent: nothing is spent or consumed. Read-only, free.

Put a discussion thread you found onto the founder's growth board as a pending move. WHEN: you have read a thread on a community they work (a subreddit, Hacker News, a forum) that the board does not carry, and can say why it is worth their twenty minutes. It lands at the tail of the board, keyed to the thread so a repeat lands on one row, and comes back with its posture: on Reddit or Hacker News that is draft_only, meaning you draft and the founder posts, and you must never post there yourself. Only community_reply and community_answer. Free; 'act' scope; a fixed number a day. A thread already on the board hands back its existing move id. WHAT COMES BACK: the move id and posture, so you can save a draft with update_draft next.

Put one measured number the founder will stand behind in public into the claim library, so every later reply and growth marketing post can cite it with its caveat. WHEN: a real measurement lands and the founder says they would defend it. Record the NUMBER and the caveat together; a number without its caveat is what this library exists to prevent. Never record an estimate, a projection, a rival's figure, or anything you inferred rather than measured. Free; requires the 'act' scope. Recording the same claim twice replaces your earlier wording; a pinned claim is left as it is. WHAT COMES BACK: the top of their board with move ids.

File a growth idea (optional channels, kind, score), original X draft or research outcome. Research appends a result to its idea; send expected_updated_at unchanged from the calendar. It keeps evidence holds and never authorises drafting. Requires 'act' scope; no spend or posting. Keep run_key stable. Drafts need action_kind social_post and one idea_id or source_idea; source_url is evidence. adopt_legacy only reclassifies an exact saved replay (a reply keeps its X destination). Completion uses the move verbs.

Write one durable thing you have learned about this founder or their product into AfterLaunch's Memory, the record every growth and marketing draft is written from. WHEN: the moment the founder tells you something that will still be true next month and that AfterLaunch could not have measured itself. A standing preference, a rule about how they write, a fact not on the site yet, or what a shipped move actually earned. Recording it is part of the job, not a favour: AfterLaunch drafts from Memory, so anything you keep to yourself is a correction the next draft will need again. Record what LASTS. Never record chatter, a passing mood, a restatement of get_snapshot or get_kb_page, or anything you inferred rather than heard. One sentence in the founder's own terms, 10 to 500 characters. Free; requires the 'act' scope. Recording the same insight twice replaces your earlier note; a pinned note is left as it is. WHAT COMES BACK: the top of their board with move ids, so recording hands you your next instruction without a second call.

Replace a drafted marketing output's body before it is shipped. Manual replacement only: the AI redraft stays in the app. A draft carrying an unfilled placeholder or a broken link is refused, and the previous draft is kept as revision history. Free; requires the 'act' scope and Founder tier.

SPENDS MONEY: run an on-demand AI visibility scan (scan='ai_visibility'), the GEO measurement of how the answer engines represent this product against its competitors. Needs the 'write' scope, a paid plan or an active trial, and an Idempotency-Key you mint. Bounded by the credit balance and the per-tenant daily and monthly caps. One scan per type per product per local day; a repeat that day replays the original result, regardless of the key.

SPENDS MONEY: run the growth-move generator on demand to top up the Feed with fresh marketing moves across SEO, AI visibility, competitors and distribution. Needs the 'write' scope, a paid plan or an active trial, and an Idempotency-Key you mint. Bounded by the credit balance and the per-tenant daily and monthly caps. Once a day per product.

Report a claimed attempt as running, ready_for_review or failed, always with its exact attempt_id. Ready needs prepared_content or a prepared asset_url and remains unpublished until the founder confirms. State shipped is retained only for stored legacy jobs whose attempt_id is null. Omitting an attempt never turns managed work into legacy work. Free; requires the 'act' scope.

Apply one explicit founder review decision: revise the current managed attempt, withdraw unfinished work, adopt an inspected legacy result, or correct a recorded publication. Revision starts a new attempt only when this transaction wins. This never publishes anything. Free; requires the 'act' scope.

SPENDS MONEY: trigger one on-demand generation run of a growth marketing loop (e.g. linkedin_post for distribution, geo_improvement for AI visibility and GEO, competitor_intel for competitors). Costs 1 credit. Needs the 'write' scope and an idempotency_key you mint. Bounded by the per-tenant daily and monthly caps. Charged and limited to ONE run per loop per cycle; a repeat in the same cycle replays at no cost, regardless of the key. Accepts only runnable, provisioned loop types (see get_loop_status).

Set how much a growth marketing loop does on its own: review, one_click or autonomous. Requires the 'config' scope and Founder tier. Social and distribution channels never accept 'autonomous': they are review-and-post by a human.

Set how often a growth marketing loop runs: 'default', 'biweekly', 'monthly' or 'paused'. Requires the 'config' scope and Founder tier. You can only SLOW or pause a loop, never make it run faster than default. 'default' clears any override.

Resolve one drafted marketing output in the founder's review queue (from list_outputs): action 'ship' marks it done or posted WITHOUT publishing anywhere, action 'skip' dismisses it. WHEN: call 'ship' the moment the founder confirms the content is actually out, with their go and never on your own; call 'skip' when they decide against it. Posting is the human's decision; reporting the outcome is yours, and it is not optional, because an unreported result leaves the record blind to what the work earned. Report only what is true: a draft you have written is not a draft that went out. This never posts to a channel: real publishing is approve_output (egress scope, human-approved). Free; requires the 'act' scope and Founder tier.

Set how AI visibility scans run: engines, questions per scan, cadence. Scope 'config', Founder tier. Free to set; returns the credits a scan draws ABOVE the included 15 questions on the leading AI search engines, which is the only part billed. Narrowing costs nothing and refunds nothing. Omit the body to read the config and quote ladder, changing nothing.

Write the calibrated leans from a voice round into the FOUNDER'S OWN voice profile, the personal register, never the brand's. Two voices live here and they do not sound alike: the brand's came from the website and is what marketing pages and listings use, and this verb cannot touch it. WHEN: after a round, once an axis has enough answers to read. Send one write per round, not one per pair, and leave out an axis with too few observations: that is not a lean. Send only the axes that moved; the rest keep what they had. Free; requires the 'act' scope. WHAT COMES BACK: every axis on record, and the top of their board.

Record completion only after the founder explicitly confirms it. Use prepared_result after reviewing the current prepared attempt, or independent_work when the founder completed it separately. This records an attestation and optional published_url; it never publishes anything. Free; requires the 'act' scope.

Dismiss a growth move (Skip in the Feed). Free; requires the 'act' scope. Optional feedback_key (closed vocabulary, see the enum) plus a free-text feedback_note explain why, which improves future marketing drafts.
