  "task_performed": "Daily leaderboard of newly-launched AI tools, queryable over MCP.\n\nLaunchelion lists AI tools by real launch date. When a maker connects Stripe, monthly revenue is shown as **verified**; everything else is labelled **self-reported**, and the two are never merged. There are no ratings or review scores in this catalog, so agents should not report any. Paid placements are always labelled and never change a link's `rel`.\n\n**Tools**\n\n- `search_tools(query)` — free-text search over live listings by name, tagline, or category. Up to 20 results.\n- `get_tool(slug)` — full detail for one listing: description, launch date, revenue signals, for-sale status.\n- `list_alternatives(target)` — live, same-category alternatives to a well-known tool (e.g. `chatgpt`).\n- `submit_tool(...)` — creates a DRAFT listing and returns a claimUrl. A human must claim it by email before it can publish.\n- `list_offers()` — the optional paid add-ons and whether they are purchasable yet.\n- `create_checkout(slug, product)",
