## What it does

The skill runs in two modes. Build takes your product, price, cost and monthly budget and returns a platform recommendation, a budget split, and campaign briefs for Google Ads, Meta Ads and TikTok Ads with headlines, descriptions and CTAs. Optimize takes per-platform spend and ROAS or CPA, compares the channels and tells you where to move money.

Everything rests on the ROAS math. The skill calculates break-even ROAS as 1 ÷ margin, adds a profit buffer for the target, and derives a max CPA. Platform choice follows buyer behaviour: search intent points to Google Shopping, visual products to Meta, demo-driven products to TikTok. When something is missing it asks one follow-up question instead of stalling.

No API key is required, and installation goes through `npx skills add`. Numbers pulled from category benchmarks are flagged with ⚠️, and the report says what better data would change. It does not produce images or video, only creative direction and specs. If your campaigns have been running for less than two to four weeks, hold off on optimizing — there is not enough data yet.

- Launching a resistance band set at $29.99 with 60% margin and $5,000/month. Where should I advertise and how much per platform?
- Google Shopping runs at ROAS 3.2x on $3,000, Facebook at 1.4x on $1,800, margin 45%. Should I shift budget?
