# What to ask your agent

> Example prompts for Claude Code, Cursor or Codex CLI once GetIntel is connected over MCP, from checking where you stand to shipping the fix in your codebase.

Once GetIntel is [connected](/docs/mcp/connect/), talk to your agent in plain language. It picks the right tools; the names in brackets show which ones it will usually call.

## Where do I stand?

- "Give me this week's AI visibility summary and what changed." (`get_overview`)
- "Which of my topics are weakest, and who leads each one?" (`get_topics`)
- "Which buyer questions did I lose since last week?" (`get_prompt_history`)
- "How many MCP reads have I used this month?" (`get_usage`)

## Why is it happening?

- "Open the pricing topic. Which questions am I missing and what does ChatGPT say instead?" (`get_topic`, `get_receipts`)
- "Why does AI pick Competitor X over us? Show the topics they win." (`get_competitor`)
- "Which domains does AI cite in our category that never mention us?" (`get_sources`)
- "Which of our pages rank on Google but AI never cites?" (`get_search_console`)
- "Does AI describe our product accurately on every engine?" (`get_brand`)

## Fix it in the codebase

This is where a coding agent earns its keep: GetIntel says what is missing, and the agent edits the real site.

- "Take the top on-page task, read its brief, and make the change in this repo. Open a pull request when it's done." (`list_tasks`, `get_task`)
- "For the comparison topic, check the content analysis and update our comparison page so it covers every fact AI compares." (`get_topic`)
- "Look at the latest technical scan and fix the issues on our key pages." (`get_technical`)

<Aside type="tip">
Claude Code, Cursor and Codex CLI can edit files and open pull requests in your repository. Claude Desktop can read your GetIntel data but cannot change your code.

## Manage the plan

These need a token with action access.

- "Plan my week." (`plan_week`)
- "Mark the Reddit task as in progress and add it to this week's plan." (`update_task`)
- "I've fixed the robots.txt issue. Re-run the technical scan." (`recheck_technical`)
