## What it does

The skill runs the same metric and dimension breakdown twice, once per period, then joins the two result sets into one table: value now, value before, absolute delta and percent change. Items that only appear in the newer period or only in the older one get their own sections. Those are usually the most interesting rows.

It drives CJA through MCP tools. `findMetrics` and `findDimensions` resolve what you want to watch, `runReport` pulls both periods, and `describeCja` loads the data view calendar and timezone. Period handling is strict: equal length, same first day of week, and the comparison window ends exactly one day before the current one starts. The skill confirms the periods with you before it queries anything.

Output is an HTML report written to `/tmp/cja_top_movers_report_<YYYY-MM-DD_HHMMSS>.html`. You need a connected Customer Journey Analytics MCP server and access to a data view, because every step depends on it. KPI numbers render as full digits with thousands separators, not `K` or `M` suffixes — worth knowing if the table is headed into a deck.

## When to use it
- spot campaigns with the steepest week-over-week drop
- show which pages gained the most traffic
- compare channels across two time windows
- catch products that dropped out of the report
- list new entries that appeared this period

## Example prompts
- what's up and what's down this week vs last week
- show me the top 10 pages by session change between the two periods
- what changed by channel over the last 7 days

  Identifies which items (pages, campaigns, products, channels, regions) had the
  biggest increases or decreases for a key metric between two time periods. Use
  this skill when someone asks "what's up and what's down," "which campaigns
  moved the most," "top gainers and losers," "what pages are trending," "show me
  what changed by channel," or any variation of identifying the biggest movers
  and decliners for a metric.

# Top Movers Watchlist (Customer Journey Analytics)

Surface the biggest gainers and decliners for a metric across any dimension in
two time periods. The output tells the user exactly what moved, by how much, and
whether items appeared or disappeared entirely — which is often the most
interesting signal.

This skill is a faster, more targeted alternative to a full anomaly triage.
Use it when the user wants to scan the landscape of changes rather than drill
into a single anomaly.

## CJA MCP Tools Used

- `describeCja(DATAVIEW_CONTEXT_GUIDE)` — load data view calendar/timezone
- `findMetrics` — resolve the metric being watched
- `findCalculatedMetrics` — if the metric is a custom KPI
- `findDimensions` — resolve the dimension to break down by
- `runReport` — pull dimension-metric data for both periods
- `searchDimensionItems` — validate dimension values if user specifies names

---

## Phase 0 — Setup

1. Call `findDataViews` and `setDefaultSessionDataViewId` as needed.
2. Call `describeCja("DATAVIEW_CONTEXT_GUIDE")` to load data view context.
   Record the first-day-of-week as `WEEK_START_DOW` and timezone as
   `TIMEZONE`. If the context guide does not return a week-start value,
   default to **Monday** (ISO 8601). You will use both in Phase 1.3.

---

## Phase 1 — Clarify Inputs

### 1.1 Metric

If the user specified a metric, resolve it:
```
findMetrics(search: "<user's metric name>")
```

If not specified, suggest the top 3 metrics from usage:
> "Which metric would you like to track? I can suggest: Sessions, Revenue,
> Orders based on what your team uses most."

### 1.2 Dimension (what to break down by)

Common dimension choices and their typical use cases:

| Dimension          | Use Case                                |
|--------------------|-----------------------------------------|
| Marketing Channel  | "Which channels moved?"                 |
| Page Name          | "Which pages are trending?"             |
| Campaign           | "Which campaigns improved?"             |
