PhantomBuster

## Setup

1. Get your API key from [Workspace Settings](https://phantombuster.com/workspace-settings)
2. Set the environment variable:
   ```bash
   export PHANTOMBUSTER_API_KEY=your-api-key-here
   ```

## Usage

All commands use the bundled `pb.py` script in this skill's directory.

### List Agents

See all your configured PhantomBuster agents.

```bash
python3 pb.py list
python3 pb.py list --json  # JSON output
```

### Launch an Agent

Start a phantom by ID or name.

```bash
python3 pb.py launch <agent-id>
python3 pb.py launch <agent-id> --argument '{"search": "CEO fintech"}'
```

### Get Agent Output

Fetch the results/output from the most recent run.

```bash
python3 pb.py output <agent-id>
python3 pb.py output <agent-id> --json  # Raw JSON
```

### Check Agent Status

See if an agent is running, finished, or errored.

```bash
python3 pb.py status <agent-id>
```

### Abort Running Agent

Stop an agent that's currently running.

```bash
python3 pb.py abort <agent-id>
```

### Get Agent Details

Full details about a specific agent.

```bash
python3 pb.py get <agent-id>
```

### Fetch Result Data

Download the actual result data (CSV) from an agent's latest run.

```bash
python3 pb.py fetch-result <agent-id>
python3 pb.py fetch-result <agent-id> > output.csv
```

This downloads the `result.csv` file from the agent's S3 storage, perfect for integrating PhantomBuster data into your workflows.
