Prompt playbook

Google Ads prompts for Claude, ChatGPT & any AI agent

Search · PMax · Display · 86 ad operations

Copy-paste prompts for managing Google Ads with an AI agent. Connect Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client to Xylo — the MCP server for Google Ads — and your agent gets full write access, from keyword lists to Performance Max.

The 86 Google Ads operations cover Search campaigns, responsive search ads, Performance Max asset groups, search-terms reports, negative keywords, Customer Match lists, offline conversion uploads, recommendations, experiments, and quality scores. Enough to build, cut wasted spend, test, and report without opening the Google Ads interface.

The more specific the brief, the more Xylo does for you. Copy one and make it yours.
