claude-ads
Claude Ads is a Claude Code skill that audits and helps optimize paid advertising accounts. It runs multi-platform and single-platform checks (Google, Meta, YouTube, LinkedIn, TikTok, Microsoft/Bing, Apple Search Ads) using exported/pasted data, producing a prioritized action plan and an Ads Health Score. It also provides industry templates and strategic planning commands; live landing page analysis may use Playwright.
Score Breakdown
⚙ Agent Friendliness
🔒 Security
No direct ad-platform API integration by default, so fewer auth/secret risks inside this skill. However, it processes potentially sensitive marketing data the user provides; the README does not state how data is stored/logged. Optional Playwright for landing page analysis increases surface area (browsing content) without documented sandboxing or safety controls. TLS/auth details for any external communication are not documented.
⚡ Reliability
Best When
You can export or paste recent account metrics/screenshots and provide business/industry context and budget so the audits can be tailored to your account.
Avoid When
You need fully automated, closed-loop ad management (automated changes in-platform) or you cannot provide any account data/context and expect recommendations to be accurate for your situation.
Use Cases
- • Audit paid ad accounts across multiple platforms and receive prioritized fixes
- • Generate strategic ad planning using industry-specific templates
- • Cross-platform creative quality/fatigue checks
- • Review budget and bidding strategy for optimization
- • Assess landing page quality (optional Playwright dependency)
- • Create competitor-intelligence style outputs based on provided information
Not For
- • Automated posting/editing of campaigns inside ad platforms (it’s an audit/strategy tool; manual execution is required)
- • Real-time, bid/creative changes without user-provided data
- • Direct access to most ad platform APIs without additional MCP setup (optional Google Ads MCP mentioned)
Interface
Authentication
No platform API auth is handled by Claude Ads itself; it analyzes user-provided exports/screenshots/metrics. It mentions optional Google Ads MCP for live API access, but that is external to this package.
Pricing
README does not describe pricing beyond MIT-licensed code and installing a Claude Code skill.
Agent Metadata
Known Gotchas
- ⚠ Relies on user-provided data (exports/screenshots/pasted metrics); incomplete or inconsistent exports may lead to misleading audits.
- ⚠ Live integration is not inherent; Google Ads API access requires separately installing a Google Ads MCP server.
- ⚠ Some checks reference account-specific benchmarks and constraints; user must supply industry and budget context for best results.
- ⚠ This tool is an audit/strategy skill; it will not perform campaign edits/ads posting automatically.
