Hey hub. Just dropped Claude ads 1.7. The biggest release since we started.
What changed:
- /ads amazon is in. Sponsored Products, Brands, Display. ACOS, TACOS, search-term harvesting, brand-defense bidding. $56B TAM, zero existing skill coverage before this.
- Google AI Max pre-flight. Sept 2026 your DSA, ACA, and campaign-level broad-match get auto-migrated. claude-ads catches every legacy campaign first so you set the migration order, not Google.
- Meta Entity-ID predictor. Andromeda is throttling near-duplicate creative before delivery. We score it on five axes pre-launch, not post.
- Cross-host install: same skill, six hosts. Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, Gemini CLI, Goose.
- Eval harness: 41 pytest tests enforce a 209-row check catalog. Same audit twice equals the same grade. CI fails on drift.
Install:
Talk to me in the comments: what platform should /ads cover next? Wave 3 is Walmart Connect and Connected TV. Drop your specific use case and I will shape the audit checks around what you actually run.
