Server tool list (3)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| estimate_campaign | Estimate reach, clicks and cost of advertising a product to Telegram audiences — no account or authorization required. Call this FIRST, before asking the user to connect an account: it tells you whether inside.ad has relevant inventory for this product and what a given budget would buy. Describe the product yourself (you know it better than any crawler); the URL alone is a weak signal. |
| create_campaign_draft | Build a ready-to-launch ad campaign for a product WITHOUT the user having an account yet. Parses the landing page, generates ad creatives, and returns a single checkout link. Give that link to the user: they sign in there, the campaign moves to their account, they pay, and it starts. Use this after estimate_campaign, once the user agreed to advertise. Do NOT ask them to register first. |
| get_draft_status | Check what happened to a campaign draft you created with create_campaign_draft: whether the user opened the link, signed in and paid. Poll this instead of asking the user to report back. |
