Use when predicting outcomes or generating spend plans with the Recast Forecast / Spend Forecast APIs — "what will revenue be if I spend X", "forecast my KPI", "predict outcomes for this budget", "generate a spend plan". Translates forecasting goals into API requests for outcome prediction and budget generation. Forecaster predicts the outcome of a known budget; to choose the best budget, use optimizer-api instead.

Use when a user expresses interest in using the Recast API. They may hit limitations of the MCP tools such as "I need to run a forecast (or optimization) and the MCP can't" or "I want to create a repeatable, deterministic workflow" or they may explicitly ask for help getting set up on the API "I want to use the API", "How do I authenticate the API", "How do I get a PAT for the API", etc. The MCP uses OAuth authentication, but all API calls require a PAT.

Use when optimizing or allocating marketing budget with the Recast Optimizer API — "maximize revenue with $2M", "optimal channel mix", "allocate budget under constraints", "in-flight reallocation". Translates goals into API requests covering objectives, constraints, channel budgets, multi-KPI, and common pitfalls. Optimizer prescribes the budget to hit a goal; to predict outcomes of a known budget, use forecaster-api instead.

Use when reading, creating, or editing Recast Plans programmatically — "list my plans", "get a plan's budget", "pull a plan's forecast", "what changed between these two plan versions", "get counterfactual forecasts for this plan", "am I sticking to my plan's budget", "planned vs actual spend", "turn this optimization into a plan", "save this optimization as a plan", "build a plan from this budget", "create a plan from scratch", "change the budget on this plan", "edit my plan", "bump Meta's sp...

Use when pulling data or reports from the Recast Reporter API — "get channel ROI as CSV", "download attribution data", "export model results", "create a report via the API". Identifies the right report_type from what the user wants to analyze, prompts for required inputs, generates code to create/poll/download CSV results.
