What it does

Ads Plan is an agent skill from AgriciDaniel/claude-ads. Create a professional paid-advertising strategy covering objectives, economics, platform selection, campaign architecture, audiences, budget, creative, measurement, experiments, governance, rollout, and reporting. Use for ad plan, media plan, PPC strategy, paid-social strategy, campaign architecture, advertising roadmap, or channel planning.

Its SKILL.md is about 490 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 13 other files, including assets (for example `assets/agency.md`, `assets/b2b-enterprise.md` and `assets/ecommerce-creative.md`).

It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Paid advertising. The repository describes itself as: Claude-first paid-media operations skill for Claude Code across 12 ad platforms (Google, Meta, YouTube, LinkedIn, TikTok, Microsoft, Apple, Amazon, Reddit, Pinterest, Snapchat… The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Paid-social strategy
  • Campaign architecture
  • Advertising roadmap
  • Channel planning

Example prompts

  • “/ads-plan”

Workflow steps

8 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Read the setup profile, business economics, evidence, current account state, and
  2. Define objective, customer, offer, conversion, value, constraints, geography,
  3. Evaluate channel roles and exclusions from first principles; do not require every
  4. Before proposing Meta budgets, learning-phase expectations, bidding,
  5. Specify campaign architecture, audience strategy, creative system, budget and
  6. Phase prerequisites before launch, learning, optimization, and scale.
  7. Assign every action an owner, timing, dependency, guardrail, evidence, success
  8. Return canonical JSON and render the requested human plan.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ac21644. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Ads Plan loads about 494 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 88 tokens; SKILL.md has 200 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~88
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~494

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description
Create a professional paid-advertising strategy covering objectives, economics, platform selection, campaign architecture, audiences, budget, creative, measurement, experiments, governance, rollout, and reporting. Use for ad plan, media plan, PPC strategy, paid-social strategy, campaign architecture, advertising roadmap, or channel planning.

Paid Media Plan

  1. Read the setup profile, business economics, evidence, current account state, and relevant industry template as optional input.
  2. Define objective, customer, offer, conversion, value, constraints, geography, regulated category, time horizon, and success criteria.
  3. Evaluate channel roles and exclusions from first principles; do not require every supported platform. For a channel outside the twelve-platform contract, load ads/references/additional-platforms.md and return a research lead unless its current buying, eligibility, measurement, and creative evidence is present.
  4. Before proposing Meta budgets, learning-phase expectations, bidding, consolidation, or performance forecasts, collect the account, Pixel, and conversion cold-start dimensions per the contract in skills/ads-meta/SKILL.md. When any dimension is cold or unknown, plan for measurement validation, explicit creative hypotheses, staged reversible tests, and confidence labels; do not apply mature-account benchmarks to missing history.
  5. Specify campaign architecture, audience strategy, creative system, budget and pacing, measurement, experiments, policy controls, and operating cadence.
  6. Phase prerequisites before launch, learning, optimization, and scale.
  7. Assign every action an owner, timing, dependency, guardrail, evidence, success measure, and rollback or exit condition.
  8. Return canonical JSON and render the requested human plan.

A plan is advisory. It becomes an account change only through launch or optimize mutation gates.
