## Give this to your agent

Use my connected Agentik MCP server for this job: app store keyword plan.

Plan my App Store keywords. First ask me for my App Store app ID, my top competitor’s ID and my country.

Read my listing with dataforseo/app-data-apple-app-info. List the keywords my app and my competitor rank for with dataforseo/dataforseo-labs-apple-keywords-for-app and the apps that compete with mine with dataforseo/dataforseo-labs-apple-app-competitors. Find the “best app” articles people read with serper/search and read five with firecrawl/scrape to see how apps like mine are described.

Finish with the keywords I miss, a new title, subtitle and 100-character keyword field, and the articles worth pitching.

Before running anything, inspect each tool with inspect_tool, ask me for any input you don’t have instead of inventing it, and tell me the total price. Wait for my go. At the end, tell me what Agentik charged.
