## Agent prompt to replace Buffer

Use looot to pull the public post counts for the accounts I give you and rank the posts by engagement. If you have not yet, set up https://looot.ai/skill.md first. Then search the looot catalog for each step, check the price of each endpoint before you call it, run the cheapest one that fits, and show me the results as a table.

looot has no monthly seat. You pay per call to the provider you pick, and the catalog shows each endpoint's price before you run it. Whether that comes out cheaper than Buffer depends on your volume.
