An Agent Skill that teaches AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor how to use the PaidSync MCP server well: orient before acting, audit before optimizing, and draft every change for approval before it applies.
PaidSync lets an AI assistant operate a user's own paid media accounts across 14 platforms (Google Ads, Meta, TikTok, LinkedIn, Snapchat, Reddit, Pinterest, Microsoft, X, and ChatGPT Ads, plus GA4, GTM, Search Console, and Merchant Center) through one MCP connection. This skill is the guidance layer on top of those tools.

Rules: use-paidsync (check connections, read before writing, approval for every change) and paidsync-brand-context (uses a PAIDSYNC.md brand workspace file when the folder has one).
Brand workspaces for agencies: keep one folder per client or brand. Run /paidsync-connect and the agent writes a PAIDSYNC.md with that brand's ad accounts, goals, markets and rules, so every session starts in the right accounts.
This skill is a guidance layer. It assumes the PaidSync MCP server is connected in the same session. Connect PaidSync first at https://paidsync.ai, then add the skill.
Claude Code
cp -r skills/paidsync ~/.claude/skills/paidsync
Or place it in a project at .claude/skills/paidsync.
claude.ai (Pro, Max, Team, Enterprise with code execution)
Zip the skills/paidsync folder and upload it under Settings, Features, Skills.
Claude API
Upload the skills/paidsync folder through the Skills API (/v1/skills).
- In Cursor, open Customize, search for PaidSync.ai and click Install.
- Cursor opens PaidSync's sign-in in your browser. Sign in, or create an account (the free plan needs no card), then connect your ad accounts.
- Ask something like "Find wasted spend in my Google Ads account this month."
The plugin adds one server, https://mcp.paidsync.ai/mcp (see mcp.json), 26 skills, 5 slash commands, a performance marketer agent and 2 rules (see above). It has no hooks, runs no scripts, and holds no keys or tokens. Cursor asks before it runs each PaidSync tool unless you turn on auto-run. Most creates preview with a dry run first, and destructive operations need explicit confirmation. Details: https://paidsync.ai/security. Terms: https://paidsync.ai/terms. Privacy: https://paidsync.ai/privacy.
Claude loads the skill name and description at startup. When a request matches (auditing ads, finding wasted spend, adjusting budgets, comparing platforms, setting up conversion tracking, and the PaidSync connector is available), Claude reads SKILL.md for the workflow and reads REFERENCE.md only when it needs the full platform list or examples. This progressive loading keeps the context light.
Every change PaidSync makes is drafted and requires explicit user approval before it applies. PaidSync changes campaign configuration only; it never moves money or processes payments. Billing stays directly between the user and each ad platform.
Review any skill before installing it. Everything this skill does is in SKILL.md and REFERENCE.md, plain instructions with no scripts and no external calls.
