What it does

This skill guides an AI agent through onboarding a paid advertising project: recording the business model, offer, geography, active ad platforms, account IDs, KPIs and who approves changes. It writes a setup profile and a data-lifecycle file (classification, retention, deletion and incident owner) before anything else is saved. It is built to avoid storing secrets: it only records whether a credential exists and a reference name to it, never the value itself.

Great for

  • Marketers or agencies starting a new paid-media client project with Claude Ads
  • Teams that need a documented data-retention and access-owner record for ad data
  • Developers installing Claude Ads who want a safe, checksum-verified install path

Skip it if

  • Anyone expecting it to make live ad-account changes: the skill states a profile authorizes no live account write
  • Situations needing legal or regulatory compliance sign-off, since the file says the lifecycle record is an operational contract, not legal advice
  • Users who want to paste API keys or tokens into the chat for the agent to store; the skill is designed to refuse this

Try asking

  • “Set up a new paid-media client profile for our Meta and Google Ads accounts”
  • “Help me create the data-lifecycle file for our ad reporting project”
  • “Walk me through connecting our ad platform exports without storing any credentials”
  • “Install Claude Ads safely from a verified release archive instead of curl piped to bash”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Keep API tokens in environment variables or a keychain before starting, so the agent only needs to record their reference names
  • Have the budget ceilings, approvers and rollback owner decided beforehand, since the skill asks for them explicitly
  • Use the host-native plugin installer where available; the skill prefers it over manual installs
