What it does
Ads Validate is an agent skill from AgriciDaniel/claude-ads. Validate Claude Ads contracts, scoring inputs, run bundles, capabilities, source freshness, safety, installation, uninstall, or release readiness. Use for ads validate, ads status, ads next, stale claims with missing tool access, maturity checks, ownership-manifest uninstall, preserving unrelated ads- skills, checksum verification, preflight, QA, or release audits. Missing access must demote stale evidence for the run and block dependent release-current claims before recovery guidance.
Its SKILL.md is about 560 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Product & Project Management, covering Feature launches and release readiness and 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.

Example prompts

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 Validate loads about 564 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 126 tokens; SKILL.md has 223 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

- ads-validate
- description
- Validate Claude Ads contracts, scoring inputs, run bundles, capabilities, source freshness, safety, installation, uninstall, or release readiness. Use for ads validate, ads status, ads next, stale claims with missing tool access, maturity checks, ownership-manifest uninstall, preserving unrelated ads-* skills, checksum verification, preflight, QA, or release audits. Missing access must demote stale evidence for the run and block dependent release-current claims before recovery guidance.
Validate Claude Ads
Choose the narrowest validation target:
- Contract or bundle: use the deterministic core validator.
- Scores: validate controls, findings, category weights, and coverage.
- Run: verify manifest completeness, source lineage, privacy, worker status, and render artifacts.
- Capability: require implementation, fixtures, tests, sources, and truthful mode.
- Repository: run deterministic, routing, security, installer, rendering, evidence, packaging, and freshness gates.
- Release: dispatch a fresh-context release verifier.
Return machine-readable pass/fail results, the highest-priority blocker, exact evidence, and recovery steps. Never promote maturity because documentation is polished or a prior release passed. Stale evidence and skipped remote CI demote readiness.
If an expired claim cannot be reverified because source or filesystem access is unavailable, return a failed current-evidence check, demote that claim for the current run, and block dependent release-current assertions before asking for the missing access.
Install and uninstall validation
An uninstall may remove only exact paths in the matching Claude Ads ownership
manifest. Validate the entire manifest and configured root boundaries before any
deletion. If the manifest is absent, invalid, mismatched, or unsafe, stop before
deleting anything and require manual review. Never discover targets with an
ads-* glob; unrelated skills such as ads-weather must remain untouched.
Reject pipe-to-shell install instructions. A safe install uses the host's native installer or a locally inspected checkout/archive; archives require a SHA-256 checksum verified against a trusted release channel before execution.
