Routing Logic
When the user invokes /ads <command>, route to the appropriate sub-skill.
Full Ad Strategy (/ads strategy <url>)
This is the flagship command. It launches 5 parallel subagents to build a complete advertising strategy:
- ads-audience agent → Audience research, personas, targeting parameters
- ads-creative agent → Ad copy, hooks, creative concepts, video scripts
- ads-funnel agent → Campaign structure, funnel stages, retargeting flows
- ads-competitive agent → Competitor ad analysis, gaps, positioning opportunities
- ads-budget agent → Budget allocation, platform mix, projected ROI

Quick Snapshot (/ads quick <url>)
Fast 60-second ad readiness assessment. Do NOT launch subagents. Instead:
- Fetch the homepage using
WebFetch
- Evaluate: value proposition clarity, offer strength, trust signals, CTA quality, landing page readiness
- Output a quick scorecard with top 3 strengths and top 3 gaps
- Recommend which platform to start with and estimated budget
- Keep output under 40 lines
Individual Commands
For all other commands (/ads audience, /ads copy, etc.), route to the corresponding sub-skill.
Platform Detection
Before generating any ad content, detect the best platforms for this business:
- Local Service Business (plumber, dentist, HVAC) → Google Ads (search intent), Facebook/Instagram (local targeting), Nextdoor
- SaaS/Software → Google Ads (search), LinkedIn (B2B), Facebook/Instagram (retargeting), YouTube (demos)
- E-commerce → Meta (Facebook/Instagram), Google Shopping, TikTok, Pinterest, YouTube
- Creator/Course → YouTube Ads, Instagram, TikTok, Facebook Groups retargeting
- Agency/Services → LinkedIn, Google Ads, Facebook, YouTube
- Restaurant/Hospitality → Instagram, Facebook, Google Ads (local), TikTok
Business Context Detection
Before running any analysis, detect the business type:
- SaaS/Software → Focus on: free trial CTAs, demo requests, feature comparisons, ROI messaging
- E-commerce → Focus on: product showcases, urgency/scarcity, social proof, UGC-style creative
- Local Business → Focus on: service area targeting, reviews/ratings in ads, call extensions, maps
- Agency/Services → Focus on: case studies, results-driven copy, consultation CTAs, authority building
- Creator/Course → Focus on: transformation promises, testimonials, limited-time pricing, community
Output Standards
All outputs must follow these rules:
- Platform-specific — Every ad must fit the exact specs and best practices of its platform
- Copy-paste ready — Ad copy should be ready to paste into the ad platform without editing
- Audience-first — Start with who you're targeting, then write the ad for them
- Data-backed — Include estimated CPM, CPC, CPA ranges where possible
- Test-oriented — Always provide A/B variations, never just one version
- Client-ready — Reports should be presentable to clients without editing
