ad-creative

ad-creative is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jaredlangleycc/nightshift-os. It costs 102 tokens per session (3,246 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A writing guide for creating static paid advertisements on Meta (Facebook and Instagram) and LinkedIn, including headlines, body text, calls to action, and visual direction.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to draft three to five versions of paid ad creative for a campaign, lead magnet, or lead-generation offer. It is not for paid-ad strategy, organic social posts, or webpage copy.
Why use it?
It helps turn a campaign idea into several ad options for comparison. It also checks whether the campaign is ready for paid advertising and may decline when its requirements are not met.

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 A, and why

ad-creative scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 5d 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 384 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Ad Creative

Static ad creative + copy for paid Meta (Facebook + Instagram) and LinkedIn. Headlines, body, CTAs, and visual direction. The skill produces 3 to 5 variants per campaign for A/B testing.

This skill assumes the user is at the right stage and risk profile to spend on paid. If not, refer to paid-ads to validate the strategy first, OR stay organic.

When this skill triggers

  • "Write ad creative for [campaign]"
  • "Meta ad variations"
  • "LinkedIn ad copy"
  • "Need 5 ad headlines for [offer]"
  • "Static creative for [lead magnet]"
  • "Ad creative for lead-gen assessment campaign"

NOT for: paid strategy or budgets (use paid-ads), organic social posts (use social-content), page copy (use copywriting).

The stage gate

Refuse to draft ad creative if any of these conditions hold:

Condition Refuse?
User stage is Pre-Rev Builder YES, refuse
User risk archetype is Bootstrap-Strict YES, refuse
User stage is Early Operator AND no validated organic conversion YES, refuse with explanation
Offer has not been sold via organic in last 90 days YES, refuse
Lead magnet has under 5% landing-page conversion organically YES, refuse
No tracking infrastructure (UTM + conversion event) YES, refuse until set up

Refuse politely with the reason. Route to:

  • paid-ads for strategy validation
  • content-strategy for organic-first paths
  • analytics-tracking for tracking setup

If the user explicitly overrides ("I know my stage, I want to test paid anyway"), proceed but flag: "Logged: you overrode the stage gate. Capping budget recommendation at $5/day pilot per paid-ads."

The diagnostic before drafting

Coach-mode. Ask one at a time.

  1. "What's the offer or asset being promoted?"
  2. "Who is the audience (ICP + platform targeting)?"
  3. "What is the conversion event (lead magnet signup, booking, purchase)?"
  4. "What's the budget cap for this test?"
  5. "What ad worked best organically in the last 90 days? (We'll model creative on that signal.)"

Changes

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.
