# propose_remove_competitor

Proposes a change. Propose removing a competitor from this asset's tracked set. QUEUES A REQUEST FOR HUMAN APPROVAL; it does not remove anything.

## When to use it

- Use it when: The user asked to stop tracking a specific competitor.
- Not when: A competitor merely looks irrelevant to you.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| assetId | string | yes | The Visibility Asset UUID this concerns. |
| domain | string | yes | The competitor hostname to stop tracking. |

## What comes back

| Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| dataStatus | Always queued. A person decides; nothing has changed. |
| status | Always pending_human_approval. Nothing has happened yet. |
| applied | Always false. This is the field an agent would have to lie about to misreport the call. |
| changeRequestId | The queued request, which get_measurement_status lists under pendingChangeRequests until a person decides. |
| hostname | The site the request concerns. |
| proposed | What was proposed, in one phrase. |
| message | Where a person approves it. Repeat this to the user rather than saying the change was made. |

## This does not change anything

It queues a change request for a human on the account to approve. Nothing is added, removed or measured until someone says yes, and the request records which credential asked. An agent cannot act on your account by itself.

## Example request

```json
{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "propose_remove_competitor",
    "arguments": {
      "assetId": "<assetId from list_assets>",
      "domain": "<domain>"
    }
  }
}
```

Every result carries `dataStatus: queued`: a person decides, nothing has changed.

## Example prompt

> Propose removing example.com from my site's tracked competitors.

## Calling it

Connect the MCP server at `https://app.seoaio.ai/api/mcp` over the Streamable HTTP transport. Per-customer
authentication is required, so nothing is exposed without it. Call `list_assets` first:
every other tool needs an `assetId` from it. A proposal is approved or rejected by a
person at `https://app.seoaio.ai/dashboard/requests`.
