      <title>I built a 98-tool MCP server for managing Meta Ads from Claude Code</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;I run a marketing agency managing 37+ client ad accounts on Meta. Every day I create campaigns, adjust budgets, fix ad copy, check pixels, rotate creatives. All through the Meta Marketing API.  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;After months of doing this manually with curl and scripts, I built an MCP server that lets me do everything from Claude Code. Then I open-sourced it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;## What it does&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;KonQuest Meta Ads MCP gives you 57 tools (free, MIT) for managing Meta Ads directly from Claude Code:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Campaign management&lt;/strong&gt; - Create, read, update campaigns, ad sets, ads, and creatives. Duplicate campaigns with all their ads in one command.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Multi-asset ads&lt;/strong&gt; - Create a single ad with video (9:16 + 1:1) and static images (1:1 + 4:5 + 9:16) using asset_feed_spec. No more creating separate ads per format.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Targeting toolkit&lt;/strong&gt; - Search interests, behaviors, demographics, geo locations. Estimate audience sizes before creating ad sets.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pixel diagnostics&lt;/strong&gt; - Check pixel health, verify events are firing, test event sends, diagnose tracking issues on any URL.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Catalog and DPA&lt;/strong&gt; - Product catalogs, feeds, product sets for dynamic product ads. Create and update product sets with filters.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Setup checker&lt;/strong&gt; - 42+ automated checks per account: token health, pixel status, page connections, Instagram identity, catalog links.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;## How it works in practice&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Here's what managing Meta Ads from Claude Code looks like:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;▎ Create a conversion campaign for my skincare store&lt;br&gt;
  ▎   targeting women 25-45 interested in beauty&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Claude reads your vault files (brand voice, ICP profiles, angles),&lt;br&gt;
  validates everything, enforces naming conventions, checks your&lt;br&gt;
  pixel is firing, and creates:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Campaign (PAUSED)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ad set with targeting&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Ads with creatives&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Nothing goes live until you say so.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;▎ What's the ROAS on campaign C5 this week?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Claude pulls insights, breaks down by ad set,&lt;br&gt;
  flags underperformers, suggests budget shifts.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;▎ Duplicate campaign C3 but change targeting to men 30-50&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Claude duplicates the full structure (campaign + ad sets + ads),&lt;br&gt;
  applies new targeting, keeps naming conventions consistent.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;## Safety first&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Every write operation is supervised:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;All ads created PAUSED&lt;/strong&gt; - nothing goes live without your explicit approval&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Naming enforcement&lt;/strong&gt; - every object follows your naming convention before the API call happens&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Validation pipeline&lt;/strong&gt; - compliance, creative specs, tracking, structure, and operational checks run before every write&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Rate limiting&lt;/strong&gt; - respects Meta API limits with automatic backoff&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Rollback references&lt;/strong&gt; - every change is logged so you can undo it&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Safety tiers&lt;/strong&gt; - sandbox, standard, production access levels per account&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;## The vault system&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The server reads local markdown files (your "vault") for client intelligence:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;your-vault/&lt;br&gt;
    01_CLIENTS/my-client/&lt;br&gt;
      00-profile.md        # Account IDs, pixel, page&lt;br&gt;
      02-icp-personas.md   # Target audience profiles&lt;br&gt;
      04-brand-voice.md    # Tone, language, style&lt;br&gt;
      05-messaging-house.md # Angles, value props&lt;br&gt;
      matrix.md            # Decision matrix&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This means ad copy and targeting suggestions are grounded in actual client data, not generic AI output.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;## Installation&lt;/p&gt;



&lt;div class="highlight js-code-highlight"&gt;
&lt;pre class="highlight plaintext"&gt;&lt;code&gt;
bash
  pip install konquest-meta-ads-mcp

  Add to your .mcp.json:

  {
    "mcpServers": {
      "meta-ads": {
        "command": "uv",
        "args": ["--directory", "/path/to/meta-ads-mcp", "run", "python", "-m", "meta_ads_mcp"],
        "env": {
          "META_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
        }
      }
    }
  }

  Run the setup checker to verify everything works:

  &amp;gt; run_setup_check

  Open-core model

  The 57-tool public package is free and fully functional. You can manage all your Meta Ads campaigns without paying anything.

  There's also a premium bundle (41 additional tools, one-time purchase) that adds:

  - Optimization engine - automated recommendations for budget shifts, creative rotation, and scaling
  - Vault intelligence - generates ad copy grounded in client brand voice and ICP profiles
  - Experiment management - A/B test tracking with statistical significance
  - Budget governor - prevents overspend with configurable limits
  - Greek language QA - Greeklish detection and orthography checks (adaptable to any language)

  Premium is completely optional. The free package does the job for most use cases.

  Built from production pain

  This isn't a weekend project or an API wrapper. It was built from daily production use across 37+ real client accounts with real budgets. Every feature exists because something went wrong       
  without it:

  - Naming enforcement exists because messy account structures made reporting impossible
  - The validation pipeline exists because a bad ad set once spent budget on the wrong audience
  - Safety tiers exist because a sandbox test accidentally ran on a production account
  - Greek QA exists because Greeklish slipped into live ad copy

  181 automated tests make sure nothing breaks.
