Claude audits your ads now.

claude-ads, by AgriciDaniel, is a Claude-first paid-media skill for Claude Code. It audits 12 ad platforms — Google, Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, and eight more — and rolls everything it finds into one weighted Ads Health Score. It had 10,310 stars as of October 2026, it’s MIT licensed, and it’s free.

Day 5 of Repo Week was the pivot from design to money, and this is the most monetizable repo of the week. Not because the tool is complicated — it isn’t — but because an ads audit with Claude is a service-shaped tool: run the audit, show a business its score, quote the fix.

Here’s exactly how it works, the full command flow, and the design decision that makes it trustworthy: it’s read-only.

What an ads audit with Claude actually checks

A good media buyer auditing your account hunts for the same things every time: wasted spend, weak targeting, tired creative, broken structure. The stuff that makes an account quietly bleed while the dashboard still looks busy.

claude-ads runs that hunt across your platforms in one pass. Twelve platforms, one audit — instead of logging into Google, then Meta, then TikTok, then LinkedIn, and trying to hold four different reports in your head at once.

Then it does the thing a pile of reports can’t: it scores the account. Every audit rolls into one weighted Ads Health Score. One number that answers one question — healthy account, or quietly bleeding? You stop debating twelve dashboards and start fixing the biggest problem first.

And it’s a skill, not a SaaS. No new dashboard, no per-seat subscription, no tool to learn alongside the work. It runs inside Claude Code, right where you already do the work.

The full command flow for an ads audit with Claude

The whole system is four beats: setup, evidence, audit, act. Here are the commands from the source material, exactly as they’re run.

First, add the marketplace and install the skill in Claude Code:

/plugin marketplace add agricidaniel/claude-ads

/plugin install claude-ads@ai-marketing-hub-claude-ads

That’s the whole install. Then setup:

/ads setup

Setup comes with a rule worth tattooing on your workflow: bring evidence — a CSV or JSON export from your ad platforms, or screenshots. Never paste API keys. The skill works from exports and evidence you control, not from your credentials.

Then audit — one platform, or everything at once:

/ads audit google

/ads audit all

And the two commands that turn findings into a plan:

/ads report

/ads next

Report turns the audit into a readable summary. Next names your single biggest blocker, so you fix first things first instead of spreading effort across twenty small issues. Beyond those, the skill also plans, drafts, and monitors — the source material lists plan, create, and monitor commands alongside the audit flow, so a fixed account doesn’t quietly slide back.

Read-only by design — and why that’s the feature

Here’s the honest key point, and it’s the reason this skill is safe to point at real accounts.

claude-ads is read-only by design. It reports and recommends — it never changes your ad accounts on its own. You read the findings, you decide, you make the changes. You approve every move.

That control is a feature, not a flaw. Ad accounts hold real money. A tool that can change budgets, targeting, and campaigns on its own is a liability with a nice interface. A tool that reads everything, scores it, and hands you a prioritized list puts the judgment back where it belongs — with the human who owns the account. Audit fast, decide slow. That’s the right split.

The service angle: the audit is the offer

This is where Day 5 turns into revenue thinking.

Businesses everywhere are running ads they haven’t audited in a year. They’re busy, the platforms are complicated, and “the ads are running” feels like the ads are working. An audit with a single health score cuts through all of that in one conversation.

So: run the audit for a local business, show them their Ads Health Score and their single biggest blocker, then quote the fix on a scope call. The audit opens the door — the fix is the paid work. The repo is the tool; the audit is the offer.

No income promises here — an audit doesn’t guarantee a client says yes, and a score doesn’t fix an account by itself. It’s a door-opener with real substance behind it, which is more than most cold outreach can say.

The repo, in detail

Repository: github.com/AgriciDaniel/claude-ads
License: MIT
Stars: 10,310 as of October 2026

What it is: a Claude Code skill (Claude-first, not an add-on for another tool) that audits paid ads across 12 platforms — Google, Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, plus eight more — and consolidates the findings into one weighted Ads Health Score. The workflow runs on commands: setup, audit (per-platform or all), report, and next, with planning, drafting, and monitoring in the same skill.

Who it’s for: anyone who runs paid ads and hasn’t audited them properly — and freelancers or agencies who want an audit deliverable that starts client conversations. It’s free and MIT licensed.

How you’d use it: install via the plugin marketplace, run setup, feed it evidence (a CSV/JSON export or screenshots — never API keys), run the audit, read the report, and let the “next” command sequence your fixes by impact. All read-only until you decide otherwise.

FAQ

Does claude-ads change my ad accounts?

No. It’s read-only by design. It audits, scores, reports, and recommends. Every change to your accounts is made by you, after you approve it. It never touches your accounts on its own.

What do I need to run an audit?

Claude Code, the skill installed from the marketplace, and evidence: a CSV or JSON export from your ad platforms, or screenshots. Do not paste API keys — the skill is built to work from exports and evidence.

Which platforms does it audit?

Twelve in total — Google, Meta, TikTok, and LinkedIn are the named headliners, plus eight more. The /ads audit all command runs the full set in one pass.

The bottom line

Twelve platforms. One audit. One score. And a tool that reads everything while touching nothing — which is exactly how an auditor should behave. If you run ads, run the audit. If you want clients who run ads, run it for them first. Save this one for your next client conversation.
