Start collecting evidence on a product or topic from public sources. RETURNS AT ONCE: the harvest runs in the background, the first records land within a minute, and a full run takes minutes. Then call `search_evidence` or `category_warmth` for the same subject after about 30 seconds and keep calling while the counts grow; stop when they stop. Every receipt returned along the way is already a real record. Calling this twice for one subject joins the same run rather than starting another.

  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "subject": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "A product name, a topic, or a product URL."

      "type": "array",
      "items": {
        "type": "string"

    }
  },

    "subject"

}

Search the retained corpus for what people actually said about a product or topic. Returns how many independent records exist, across how many channels, whether that clears the corroboration threshold, and the loudest few quotes with their receipt ids. Costs nothing and touches no network.

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "query": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "What to look for: \"sizing\", \"battery life\", \"runs small\"."

      "type": "string",
      "description": "Optional. Narrow to one product category."
    },

      },

Resolve receipt ids to the real records behind them. This is how you CHECK a claim: if an id does not resolve, the claim citing it was not real. Takes one id or many. Long records are truncated with notice; pass full: true for complete text.

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "receiptIds": {
      "type": "array",
      "items": {
        "type": "string"
      },
      "description": "Receipt ids, as returned by any other tool. Up to 50."
    },
    "full": {
      "type": "boolean",
      "description": "Return complete record text with no truncation. Default false."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "receiptIds"
  ]
}

How much is already held for a category, and therefore whether asking about it is instant and free or slow and expensive. Check this BEFORE starting a report. With no category it lists what is held, so orient here instead of guessing slugs.

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "category": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The category, for example \"running shoes\". Omit to list every held category."
    }
  }
}

Video versus static advertising for a category, computed from how long real ads actually ran rather than from opinion. Returns a verdict, its confidence, and the ads behind it.

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "category": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "The product category."
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "category"
  ]
