What it does

This skill teaches an AI agent to act as a quality checker for the Claude Ads toolkit. When asked, the agent picks the narrowest check that fits (a contract or bundle, scores, a run, a capability, the whole repository, or a release), reports machine-readable pass or fail results with exact evidence, names the top blocker, and suggests recovery steps. It also enforces safety rules for installing and uninstalling: it only deletes files listed in an ownership manifest, and it rejects pipe-to-shell install commands. The SKILL.md file alone does not contain the validator scripts, so the actual checks depend on other files in the repository that were not reviewed here.

Great for

  • Maintainers of the Claude Ads project preparing a release
  • Developers who need an audit of install or uninstall behaviour that avoids deleting unrelated ads-* skills
  • Reviewers who want evidence-based pass/fail reports rather than judgments based on polished docs

Skip it if

  • Ordinary advertising users who only want ad copy or audits; this is a maintainer-side QA tool
  • Situations needing a verified remote CI result, since the skill says skipped remote CI demotes readiness and the agent may lack access to it
  • Uninstalling without a valid ownership manifest; the skill itself says to stop and require manual review in that case

Try asking

  • “Run ads validate on this bundle and tell me the highest-priority blocker with exact evidence”
  • “Check whether the installed ads-* skills can be uninstalled safely without touching ads-weather”
  • “Audit this release for checksum, packaging and freshness gates before I publish”
  • “Show me the ads status and what the next recovery steps are”
