Typical Workflow
You: "What brand monitoring projects do I have?"
Claude: → lbm_list_projects
You: "Run a scan on the Serpstat project"
Claude: → lbm_run_scan (asks you to confirm — scans spend credits)
→ lbm_get_scan_status (polls until complete)
You: "Show me the results — which models mentioned my brand?"
Claude: → lbm_list_results
You: "What did GPT-5 say exactly?"
Claude: → lbm_get_transcript
You: "Who are my competitors according to AI models?"
Claude: → lbm_list_competitors
Token-Efficient Responses
All list tools return compact CSV by default instead of verbose JSON. This reduces token usage by 80–96%, keeping responses within context limits.
# Default (CSV) — 3-6 key columns
competitor,mentions,visibility_pct
Competitor A,178,72.4
Competitor B,105,42.7
# Full JSON — pass include_all_fields: true
{"data": [{"competitor_id": "...", "competitor_name": "Competitor A", ...}]}
All list tools support offset and limit for pagination.
