Ad Platform Tracker Skill

A comprehensive skill for tracking algorithm changes, policy updates, compliance requirements, and competitive intelligence across Meta and Google Ads platforms.

Four Tracking Modules

When to load each file:

• Meta question → load meta-tracker.md
• Google Ads question → load google-tracker.md
• Compliance/privacy/policy question → load compliance-tracker.md
• Competitor/benchmarking question → load competitive-tracker.md
• General audit or "check everything" → load all four

Quick Assessment Framework

When a user reports a campaign issue or asks "why did X change?", run through this:

1. Platform Change? → Check the relevant tracker file for recent algorithm/feature updates
2. Compliance Risk? → Check if account/vertical is in a sensitive category (health, finance, political)
3. Creative Fatigue? → For Meta: check creative diversity, similarity scores, refresh cycle
4. Structural Issue? → For Google PMax: check channel reporting, negative keywords, asset quality
5. Competitive Shift? → Check if competitors changed messaging, offers, or formats

Scraping Strategy

When asked to monitor or scrape platform updates, use the web-scraper skill (Firecrawl or Apify) to:

1. Official blogs → Firecrawl /crawl on Meta/Google blog URLs, filter for last 7 days
2. Meta Ads Library → Apify actor apify/facebook-ads-scraper for competitor ads
3. Google Ads Transparency → Firecrawl /scrape on specific advertiser pages
4. Industry blogs → Firecrawl /search for recent updates ("Meta algorithm update 2025")
5. RSS feeds → Firecrawl /scrape on RSS feed URLs for real-time monitoring

# Example: Monitor Meta blog for updates in last 7 days
firecrawl_payload = {
    "url": "https://www.facebook.com/business/news",
    "formats": ["markdown"],
    "onlyMainContent": True,
}

# Example: Search for recent Google Ads changes
firecrawl_search = {
    "query": "Google Ads Performance Max update 2025",
    "limit": 10,
    "scrapeOptions": { "formats": ["markdown"] }
}
