In plain words
What is it for?

Why use it?
It gives coding agents the project's required naming, registration, authentication, storage, and deployment rules so changes fit the existing service.

Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: PreToolUse hook event. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions subagents.

This is byadsco/meta-ads-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on meta-ads-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything meta-ads-mcp configures →

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade B, and why

meta-ads-mcp CLAUDE.md scanned grade B with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 1mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

meta-ads-mcp — agent guide

Project memory for Claude Code, Codex and any other AI assistant. CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md are the same document, kept identical; edit both. This file is committed and shared with everyone working on the repo.

What this project is

A Model Context Protocol server that brokers Meta Ads API access for advertising agencies. Multi-tenant, OAuth-gated, with encrypted-at-rest token storage in Firestore. Deployed to Google Cloud Run.

Conventions specific to this repo (v3.0.0+)

  • Tool naming: ads_* prefix (no meta_). ad_set with underscore (not adset). Aligned with Meta's official MCP server (mcp.facebook.com/ads). See docs/migration-v3.md for the full rationale.
  • Tool registration: always server.registerTool(name, { description, inputSchema, annotations }, handler). The legacy server.tool(...) API is removed.
  • Annotations: every tool spreads one of the constants from src/tools/_register.ts (READ / CREATE / UPDATE / DELETE / TOGGLE / UPLOAD / TOKEN) into its annotations field. Write tools prepend WRITE_WARNING to the description.
  • Adding tools: see docs/adding-a-tool.md for the full template + checklist.

⚠️ Pre-deploy / pre-commit safety rule

This repo is public. Anything pushed to GitHub is permanent and indexed by search engines and bots within seconds. Treat every commit as a one-way door.

Before any git commit -m, git push, gcloud run deploy, docker push, npm publish, or PR merge, the following must be true:

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
