Automate Reports via Aspire MCP Server

Run a cron job that triggers Claude Code to generate weekly marketing summaries. The CLI executes `list_campaigns` to grab all active initiatives without requiring a browser session. It pipes those results into a script that loops through `get_project`. You get a clean markdown file of campaign spend and timelines dumped straight into your local directory.

Audit Creator Rosters

Checking who is assigned to what campaign takes too many clicks in a web UI. From your terminal, instruct the agent to run `list_project_members` for a specific initiative. The CLI iterates over the IDs using `get_member` to compile a CSV of creator profiles. You can pipe this output directly into your database or a cloud storage bucket.

Monitor Post Performance

Keep tabs on your influencer deliverables directly from your SSH session. Claude Code fires off `list_posts` to find the latest social uploads tied to your brand. To check if a specific upload is hitting its targets, the agent calls `get_post`. It extracts the raw engagement numbers and can trigger an alert if the metrics fall below your baseline.
