When to use it
Use it when
- Activation pipelines.
- Sizing an audience precisely.
Do not use it when
- No specific contraindication beyond the preconditions below.
What it needs first
Required
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.
Check export diagnostics and list existing exports.
Query the export.
Decision rules
The observable condition, what it lets you conclude, and what takes the conclusion back.
When
Export size diverges far from the UI estimate
Conclude
Estimates are modelled, exports are counted: the export is the number to ship.
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.
- Exports are snapshots: date them, they do not update themselves.
What the answer contains
- 01Readout
- The figures, with windows and accounts named.
