## What it does

The skill fetches active ad entries from public directories like Facebook Ad Library and LinkedIn. It captures graphic previews of campaigns and organizes files into a local folder under `~/competitor-ads/`.

After gathering creatives, it extracts recurring themes, customer pain points, and calls to action. The agent categorizes static banners alongside video formats to reveal repeating angles. This organizes raw ad copy into structured points.

Because it stores image files on local storage, auditing large brands with dozens of active variants consumes notable disk space.
