What it does

Google Ads Daily is an agent skill from TheMattBerman/google-ads-copilot. Daily operator review for Google Ads. Surfaces what changed, where waste is showing up, where signal is emerging, what is ready to scale, and what should be left alone. Pulls live data via MCP or works with manual exports.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k 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 Marketing & SEO, covering Paid advertising. It works with Google Ads and Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: Google Ads Copilot: operator kit for audits, MCP-connected reads, export-mode analysis, and draft/apply workflows. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Paid advertising

Example prompts

  • “/google-ads-daily”

Workflow steps

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

  1. Can we trust the account today?
  2. Where is waste showing up?
  3. Where is signal emerging?
  4. What is ready to scale or isolate?
  5. What should we not touch yet?

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2c253ee. 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 (its code samples are sql).

    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

Google Ads Daily loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 60 tokens; SKILL.md has 448 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~60
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k

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.

The 5 Daily Questions

  1. Can we trust the account today?
  2. Where is waste showing up?
  3. Where is signal emerging?
  4. What is ready to scale or isolate?
  5. What should we not touch yet?

Data Acquisition

Connected Mode (MCP available)

Pull these queries via the search tool on google-ads-mcp:

Campaign performance — last 7 days:

sql
SELECT
  campaign.name,
  campaign.status,
  metrics.impressions,
  metrics.clicks,
  metrics.cost_micros,
  metrics.conversions,
  metrics.conversions_value,
  metrics.cost_per_conversion,
  segments.date
FROM campaign
WHERE segments.date DURING LAST_7_DAYS
  AND campaign.status = 'ENABLED'
ORDER BY metrics.cost_micros DESC

Recent account changes:

sql
SELECT
  change_event.change_date_time,
  change_event.change_resource_type,
  change_event.change_resource_name,
  change_event.client_type,
  change_event.user_email,
  change_event.old_resource,
  change_event.new_resource
FROM change_event
WHERE change_event.change_date_time DURING LAST_7_DAYS
ORDER BY change_event.change_date_time DESC
LIMIT 50

Budget-limited detection (search campaigns):

sql
SELECT
  campaign.name,
  metrics.search_impression_share,
  metrics.search_budget_lost_impression_share,
  metrics.search_rank_lost_impression_share,
  metrics.cost_micros,
  metrics.conversions
FROM campaign
WHERE campaign.status = 'ENABLED'
  AND campaign.advertising_channel_type = 'SEARCH'
  AND segments.date DURING LAST_7_DAYS

For prior-period comparison, run the campaign performance query with BETWEEN dates for the preceding 7 days.

See data/gaql-recipes.md for additional queries.

Date Range Fallback

If LAST_7_DAYS returns 0 rows, fall back to LAST_14_DAYS, then LAST_30_DAYS. For daily reviews, don't go further back — instead note "Account dormant: no activity in the last 30 days" and recommend running a full audit with historical data. Always state the date range used.

Export Mode (no MCP)

Ask the user for:

  • Campaign overview: last 7 days (Campaign, Status, Impressions, Clicks, Cost, Conversions, CPA)
  • Any recent change history
  • Optionally: impression share data

See data/export-formats.md for recommended export format.


Process

  1. Announce mode (connected/export) at the start.
  2. Pull or review current data snapshot.
  3. Compare against goals and recent changes.
  4. Highlight deltas, not everything. Focus on what changed since last check.
  5. Use the operator summary template from deliverable-templates.md.
  6. Check workspace/ads/drafts/_index.md — surface any pending drafts that need review.
  7. Append meaningful notes to workspace/ads/findings.md if something new matters.

Draft Output

The daily review does not usually produce new drafts — its job is to surface what matters and flag urgency. However:

  • If it identifies an urgent waste problem (e.g., $200+ burned on junk queries overnight), create a quick negative draft using drafts/templates/negative-draft.md
  • If it identifies a budget emergency (e.g., strong campaign exhausting budget by noon), create a budget draft using drafts/templates/budget-draft.md
  • Always surface existing pending drafts from the index — "You have 3 pending drafts awaiting review"

Threshold for daily-triggered drafts: only when the finding is time-sensitive enough that waiting for the next scheduled analysis would waste significant spend.

Output Shape

  1. Account Status block — account name, CID, status, date range used, tracking confidence, mode
  2. What changed (deltas, not full state)
  3. Trust check (is tracking still clean?)
  4. Waste flag (any new leaks?)
  5. Signal flag (anything emerging?)
  6. Pending drafts to review
  7. Memory updates (if any)

Rules

  • Focus on change, not static facts.
  • Mention confidence if data quality is questionable.
  • Do not recommend churn for the sake of activity.
  • Good operators know when not to touch things.
  • Always check the draft queue — the daily is the operator's inbox.
