## Install

**Claude Code**

```sh
claude plugin marketplace add adeptads/agent-skills
claude plugin install adeptads-google-ads@adeptads
```

**Codex**

```sh
codex plugin marketplace add adeptads/agent-skills
codex plugin add adeptads-google-ads@adeptads
```

**Any other MCP client**

```sh
npx skills add adeptads/agent-skills --skill adeptads-google-ads
```

This installs the instructions only. Add the AdeptAds remote MCP server under the name `adeptads` at `https://api.adeptads.ai/mcp`.

## Sign in

Start a new session. In Claude Code, run `/mcp` and sign in to `adeptads`. Codex prompts you to sign in. The AdeptAds consent screen names the client and the access it requests. Choose **Allow**. If Google Ads is not connected yet, the screen offers **Connect Google Ads** first.

Try: "Use AdeptAds to list my Google Ads accounts."

## What it can do

| Task | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Create a Search, Display, or Performance Max campaign | Takes about 10 to 20 minutes. The campaign arrives paused. |
| Add ad groups, keywords, or search themes | Additions to a running campaign go live at once. |
| Add locations | Waits for your approval in the dashboard. |
| Start, pause, change budget or bidding | The assistant asks before starting a campaign, changing a budget, or changing bidding. AdeptAds emails the account owner about starts, bidding strategy changes, and large spend increases. |
| Read results | Clicks, spend, and conversions for a period of up to 90 days. |

The assistant uses the same account, plan usage, and Google Ads connection as the dashboard. Trial usage covers campaign creation; adding to campaigns needs a paid plan. Your AdeptAds subscription and the advertising spend billed by Google are separate.

## What it cannot do

Autopilot setup, keyword-level bids, negative keywords, new images for existing ads, and network or location settings. Use the dashboard or Google Ads for those. See [Configure Autopilot](https://www.adeptads.ai/docs/ai-autopilot).

## Review or revoke access

Open **Settings › Agents** in the dashboard. Each connected assistant shows its access level and the date it was connected. Choose **Revoke** to end its access.
