Scans the Meta Library for best performing ads (incl. links)

The problem

You spend hours opening your competitor's Meta ad library to see which creatives they have but you still don't know which creatives are the best performers. Knowing how long a competitor ad is running gives a great indication on the success for the ad.

What this skill does

• Interviews the user to define niche, target audience, and specific competitors for precise targeting.
• Controls a live browser to navigate the Meta Ad Library, bypassing static scrapers that fail on dynamic content.
• Calculates the exact duration every active ad has been running to identify good performers."
• Extracts direct share links, advertiser names, and creative formats for the longest-running ads.
• Filters and sorts results by longevity, providing a prioritized list of high-performing creative inspiration.

Frameworks & tools

Requires an MCP-enabled browser connection (Chrome) and browser automation tools like tabs_context_mcp, navigate, and computer.

Why this beats prompting it yourself

Standard LLMs cannot access the Meta Ad Library's real-time JavaScript environment or calculate run-times from visual data. This skill automates the tedious manual scrolling, date calculation, and link extraction required to build a data-backed swipe file.

Use cases

• Identify "Winning Ads" in a new niche by finding creatives live for 30+ days.
• Conduct competitive intelligence by auditing a specific rival's active ad strategy.
• Build a high-conversion swipe file for media buyers and creative strategists.
• Validate if a specific creative hook is worth testing based on market longevity.

Known limitations

Requires an active Chrome connection via MCP. Cannot bypass Meta login walls or CAPTCHAs without manual user intervention if they appear.
