When to use it
Use it when
- Post-mortems.
- Handover weeks.
- Before/after big performance moves.
Do not use it when
- No specific contraindication beyond the preconditions below.
What it needs first
No single source is required: this one reads across whatever you have connected.
Preconditions
- The account is ticked in the dashboard, confirmed via list_accounts.
Inputs
window- Analysis window.Default: last 30 days.
Procedure
In order. Every tool named is one the gateway ships, and links to its reference.
Read the client journal first: changes made through the gateway with their reason, events noted by the team, and the archived Meta and Google history.
Pull change histories where platforms expose them, for what the journal does not cover yet.
Merge into one timeline, timezone-aligned.
Decision rules
The observable condition, what it lets you conclude, and what takes the conclusion back.
When
Platforms without change logs (TikTok, Pinterest) are in scope
Conclude
Say the timeline is partial by platform, not complete: absence of a log is not absence of changes. The journal still holds every change made through the gateway.
When
The period is older than 30 days on Google Ads
Conclude
Google no longer returns it; the client journal's archive is the only source, from the day the archive started.
Evidence every conclusion must carry
- Every figure carries its account, metric and window.
- Anything below a readable sample size is reported as unjudged, not as zero.
Where the agent stops
- The readout changes nothing. Any change it motivates goes through Safe Writes: preview, human confirmation, then apply.
How it goes wrong quietly
The cases where the analysis is wrong and still looks right. Read them before trusting a number.
- Timezone misalignment shuffles cause and effect across midnight: align before reading.
