`watch_podcast_topic`

Pack: pod-researcher · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/watch_podcast_topic for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Signed-in accounts: save a topic x purpose search so get_podcast_topic_changes can report podcasts that newly match it. Records the current matches as the baseline, so get_podcast_topic_changes returns only shows that appear after now. Returns the watch_id.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`topic`	string	yes	The topic to watch, as for find_podcast_contacts.
`require_route`	boolean	no	Only report shows that have a contact route for this purpose. Default false.
`language`	string	no	Feed language code, e.g. “en”.
`country`	string	no	Two-letter country code, e.g. “us”.
