Discover which prompts and topics matter for a brand's AI visibility — using zero paid APIs.

## Requirements

- `web_fetch` — crawl the target site
- `web_search` — Brave Search free tier (optional but recommended)
- LLM reasoning — the agent's own model does the heavy lifting

No API keys, no paid tools, no accounts needed.

## Workflow

### Input

The user provides:
- **Domain URL** (required) — e.g. `clearscope.io`
- **Niche/category** (optional) — e.g. "SEO software for content teams"
- **Competitors** (optional) — e.g. "Surfer SEO, MarketMuse, Frase"

### Step 1: Crawl the Site

Use `web_fetch` on key pages to understand the brand:

```
Pages to fetch (try each, skip 404s):
- / (homepage)
- /about or /about-us
- /pricing
- /products or /features or /services
- /blog (index only)
```

Alternatively, run `scripts/crawl_site.sh <domain>` for a batch crawl.

Extract from crawled content:
