Answer: target playlists (ranked, warmest first), placement gaps, editorial vs
algorithmic, and which catalog tracks to push. Full chains in
references/workflows.md (Playlist Pitching Intelligence, Catalog Optimization).
Guardrails
- No invented placements.
followers_totalis a formatted string ("34.3M") — parse it if sorting numerically. - Credits: on insufficient credit or entitlement, preserve the task and explain the unavailable feature. Do not surface billing/checkout links, initiate purchases, rely on automatic credit purchases or retry silently.
