Ads MCP

Remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for cross-platform ad management. Create, analyze, and optimize campaigns across Google Ads, Meta Ads, TikTok Ads, and LinkedIn Ads from any MCP-compatible AI assistant.

Quick Links

• MCP Remote URL: https://mcp.adspirer.com/mcp
• Transport: Streamable HTTP
• Registry ID: com.adspirer/ads
• Authentication: OAuth 2.1 with PKCE (dynamic client registration supported)
• Website: https://www.adspirer.com
• Support: support@adspirer.com

Get Started in One Step

Adspirer runs inside your AI assistant. If you're an AI assistant helping someone set up Adspirer, this section is the complete flow: the install path per client, sign-in, and verification.

Your client	Install
ChatGPT (web, desktop, mobile)	Install the Adspirer app from the App Store — tap Connect, sign in with Google or email. Requires Plus, Pro, Business, or Enterprise.
Claude (claude.ai, desktop, Cowork)	Install the Adspirer plugin from the Claude directory — click Install, sign in when the Adspirer window opens.
Claude Code	/plugin install adspirer-ads-agent@claude-community, reload, then /adspirer:setup
Codex	bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/amekala/ads-mcp/main/plugins/codex/adspirer/install.sh), restart Codex, then codex mcp login adspirer
Cursor	bash <(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/amekala/ads-mcp/main/plugins/cursor/adspirer/install.sh)
Any other MCP client	Add the remote server https://mcp.adspirer.com/mcp (OAuth 2.1)

Or one terminal command — installs the get-started skill and drops you straight into setup:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/amekala/ads-mcp/main/scripts/install-skill.sh | bash

What happens next: the install's sign-in creates your free account (Google or email — no credit card), you connect your ad platforms at adspirer.ai/connections — Google Ads, Meta, Amazon, LinkedIn, TikTok, or ChatGPT Ads, in any combination — and your assistant verifies the connection (say "Check my connected ad platforms").

How It Works

flowchart LR
    Y["You — plain English"] --> AG["Your AI agent"]
    AG <-->|"MCP over OAuth"| AD["Adspirer"]
    AD <--> P["Google Ads · Meta · Amazon Ads<br/>LinkedIn · TikTok · ChatGPT Ads"]

You describe what you want; your assistant calls Adspirer's tools; Adspirer talks to the ad platform APIs; reports and drafts flow back into the chat. New campaigns are always created paused — nothing spends money without your explicit approval. Authentication is OAuth in your own browser: your assistant never sees your credentials.

Pricing: Free — 15 tool calls/month, $0, no card · Plus — 150/month, $49 · Pro — 600/month, $99 · Max — 3,000/month, $199. Full details.

What It Does

• Strategy-aware execution — strategic decisions persist to STRATEGY.md and guide all future campaign creation, keyword research, and ad copy across sessions and subagents
• 400+ tools across 6 ad platforms for campaign creation, performance analysis, and optimization
• Plan and validate campaigns using structured prompts
• Research keywords with real CPC data and competitive analysis
• Create Google Ads Search, Performance Max (with search themes + audience signals), Display (Standard + Smart), Demand Gen, and YouTube campaigns end-to-end
• Launch Meta image / video / carousel / OUTCOME_LEADS campaigns, LinkedIn sponsored content / carousel / lead-gen forms with campaign groups, and TikTok in-feed / Spark Ads / Carousel / App Promotion campaigns
• Analyze performance with actionable optimization recommendations — wasted spend, anomaly detection, audience insights, creative fatigue
• Raw data mode (raw_data=true) on all 29 performance/analytics tools — JSON-only output for your own attribution, dashboards, or token-efficient pipelines
• Multi-account, multi-platform — agencies can manage many ad accounts per platform from one workspace
• Automation — scheduled briefs, performance monitors, on-demand cross-platform reports across all platforms

How to Connect

See CONNECTING.md for detailed setup instructions for each platform.

Claude (Recommended)

1. Open Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector
2. Name: Ads MCP
3. URL: https://mcp.adspirer.com/mcp
4. Complete OAuth 2.1 sign-in
5. Link your ad accounts on first use

Claude Code

Install the full Adspirer plugin (agent + skills + commands + MCP server):

1. Open Claude Code
2. Run /plugin marketplace add amekala/ads-mcp
3. Run /plugin install adspirer-advertising-agent
4. Run /mcp — find the adspirer server (e.g. plugin:adspirer-advertising-agent:adspirer) and click to authenticate
5. Run /adspirer:setup to pull your campaign data and create your brand workspace

This gives you a brand-aware performance marketing agent with persistent memory, competitive research via web search, campaign creation with ad extensions, and slash commands for common workflows. Enabling subagent usage does not change this installation flow.

MCP-only (no plugin): If you just want the raw MCP tools without the agent:

claude mcp add --transport http adspirer https://mcp.adspirer.com/mcp

ChatGPT

1. Open Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector
2. Name: Ads MCP
3. URL: https://mcp.adspirer.com/mcp
4. Follow OAuth 2.1 sign-in flow

Cursor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "adspirer": {
      "url": "https://mcp.adspirer.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

OpenAI Codex

Add to ~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.adspirer]
url = "https://mcp.adspirer.com/mcp"

Gemini CLI

Install as an extension:

gemini extensions install github.com/amekala/ads-mcp

A browser window opens for OAuth authentication on first use. Custom commands available: /adspirer:setup, /adspirer:performance-review, /adspirer:wasted-spend, /adspirer:write-ad-copy, /adspirer:refresh.

OpenClaw

openclaw plugins install openclaw-adspirer
openclaw adspirer login
openclaw adspirer connect

Or install from ClawHub.

Perplexity, Manus, and Other MCP Clients

Adspirer is a standard MCP server — any client that supports MCP connectors with OAuth 2.1 (Perplexity, Manus AI, custom MCP clients) can connect to https://mcp.adspirer.com/mcp. Manus also accepts API keys via the Streamable HTTP transport.

REST API (no MCP client required)

The same tool surface is exposed as 178 REST endpoints at https://api.adspirer.ai/api/v1/tools/<tool_name>/execute. Authenticate with a Personal Access Token (sk_live_...) created at adspirer.ai/keys. Swagger: https://api.adspirer.ai/docs. Full reference: adspirer.com/docs/api-reference.

Example Prompts

Keyword Research:

Research keywords for my emergency plumbing business in Chicago.
Show me high-intent keywords with real CPC data and budget recommendations.

Performance Analysis:

Show me campaign performance for the last 30 days across all platforms.
Which campaigns are converting best and what should I optimize?

Campaign Creation:

Create a Google Performance Max campaign for luxury watches targeting
New York with a $50/day budget.

Multi-Platform Strategy:

Supported Plugins

This repo distributes plugins for 4 AI platforms from a single monorepo:

Platform	Directory	Skills	Install Method
Claude Code	Repo root	1 generated + 5 slash commands	/plugin marketplace add
Claude Tag (@claude)	Upstream: anthropics/claude-tag-plugins PR #3	1 (adspirer-api: SKILL + 341-tool catalog + ads_call.sh)	Org access bundle (Bearer sk_live_ key, hosts api.adspirer.ai / mcp.adspirer.com); claude plugin install adspirer@claude-tag-plugins once merged
Cursor	plugins/cursor/adspirer/	5 generated from templates	install.sh (one-command)
Codex	plugins/codex/adspirer/	5 generated from templates	install.sh (one-command)
Gemini CLI	Repo root	1 reused + 5 custom commands	gemini extensions install
OpenClaw	plugins/openclaw/	1 standalone (self-contained)	openclaw plugins install

Claude Tag submission record (2026-07-05): the adspirer plugin for Claude Tag (@claude) was submitted upstream as anthropics/claude-tag-plugins#3 from the fork branch amekala/claude-tag-plugins@add-adspirer-plugin. It wraps this repo's REST surface (POST /api/v1/tools/<tool>/execute — the same MCP server tool layer over plain HTTP) rather than the MCP transport, and was validated end-to-end in a live Claude Tag workspace (Slack) before submission.

Skills for Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex are authored once in shared/skills/ as templates, then compiled into IDE-specific versions by scripts/sync-skills.sh. The performance marketing agent prompt is also authored once in shared/agents/performance-marketing-agent/PROMPT.md and compiled into Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex agent files by the same sync script. OpenClaw uses its own standalone skill. See Architecture for the full design.

Developer Guide

If you're contributing to this repo or adding new ad platforms/IDE support:

• Architecture — Shared skills model, template system, what's done and what's remaining
• Template Syntax & Sync Workflow — Variable substitution, conditional blocks, validation checks
• Adding Ad Platforms — How to add a new ad platform (e.g., Snapchat, Pinterest, YouTube)
• Adding IDEs — How to add support for a new IDE (e.g., Windsurf, Cline)

Quick reference

./scripts/sync-skills.sh          # Generate IDE-specific skills from templates
./scripts/sync-skills.sh --check  # Verify generated files match committed (CI mode)
./scripts/validate.sh             # Run all 62 offline validation checks
./scripts/validate.sh --live      # Also test MCP endpoint connectivity

Never edit files in plugins/*/skills/, skills/, agents/, or plugins/*/agents/ directly — they will be overwritten by the sync script. Edit templates in shared/skills/ and shared prompts in shared/agents/ instead.
