💡 Usage examples

Each prompt below is a real Claude Desktop session. Some of these are single-tool-call patterns ("get me X"); some require Claude to chain multiple calls + aggregate the results (noted where).

Single-call patterns (fast, cheap)

What's Nike's follower count on Facebook?
→ Uses facebook_get_page_details (1 credit)

Get the latest 9 posts from facebook.com/EngenSA
→ Uses facebook_get_page_posts with limit=9 (1-3 credits depending on actual returned count)

Show me the Meta ads currently running for "Apple Vision Pro" in Germany
→ Uses facebook_ads_search (1 credit)

Multi-call patterns (Claude orchestrates these — but it's slower + more expensive)

Compare engagement on Nike vs Adidas's last 9 Facebook posts
→ Claude calls facebook_get_page_posts twice (~2-6 credits total),
  aggregates reactions/comments/shares per post, returns a comparison.

What are people saying in the comments on Coca-Cola's last 3 posts?
→ Claude calls facebook_get_page_posts (1 credit) then
  facebook_get_post_comments 3 times (3 credits) and summarizes.

Show me marketplace listings for "PlayStation 5" under $400 in Berlin
→ Claude calls facebook_marketplace_city_coordinates (1 credit) +
  facebook_marketplace_search with filters (1 credit).

What this MCP server does NOT do

Some queries look natural in a chat ("compare engagement over the last month") but require aggregations the API doesn't expose as a single tool yet. Claude can still answer them, but it'll fan out into many tool calls — which is slow + expensive.

Query shape	Why it's hard
"Engagement rate over the last 30 days" for a page	Requires fetching every post in the date range (paginated, `limit` capped at 9 per call) and computing engagement per post. Hits the LLM tool-call budget on busy pages.
"Compare engagement rates between Brand A, B, C over the last month"	Same problem, 3× — one paginated fetch per brand, then comparison math. Works for small windows; slow for "last month" on high-volume pages.
Historical archive older than what Facebook itself serves	We surface what Facebook makes publicly visible. Posts that scrolled off Facebook's visible feed aren't retrievable.
Server-side time-series (daily engagement, weekly growth)	Not yet — on the roadmap as a future `engagement-stats` endpoint with built-in aggregation.

If your use case maps to one of these patterns and you want the aggregation pre-computed instead of LLM-orchestrated, contact support with the specific query — we're prioritizing the aggregation endpoint based on customer demand.
