# What this account has actually used Adako for

`POST /api/v1/tools/usage_value_summary/execute`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://adako.ai`
- URL: `https://adako.ai/api/v1/tools/usage_value_summary/execute`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Summarises this user's real activity over a period: tasks by platform and by kind of work, reads versus writes, proposals created, approved, rejected and executed, the five most-used tools, and a plain statement of what those calls did. Free; reads Adako's own call log and proposal store.
Use when: the user asks what they have used Adako for, whether it is earning its keep, or wants a summary before a renewal decision.
When not to use: the user wants campaign results — that is a performance tool on the platform, not this.
Returns counts only. It never estimates money saved or performance gained: Adako cannot attribute a result to a tool call, and inventing a number would be a lie the user might repeat.

## Headers

- `Idempotency-Key` string

## Request body

- object
  - `arguments` object
    - `period` 'this_month' | 'last_30_days': this_month is the calendar month to date; last_30_days is a rolling window. Default last_30_days.

## Response `200`

The tool ran. A write returns proposal_id and approve_url while the change waits for approval.

- SuccessEnvelope
  - `success` unknown, required
  - `tool` string, required
  - `data` object, required: Machine-readable result.
  - `markdown` string, required: The same result written for a person or a model.
  - `quota` Quota: Task usage for the current billing period.
    - `plan` string
    - `used` integer
    - `limit` integer
    - `period_end` string
    - `upgrade_url` string
  - `proposal_id` string: Present for writes. Nothing changes on the ad platform until it is approved.
  - `approve_url` string: Where a person approves the proposal.
  - `request_id` string, required
