Lines where the two differ have a tinted background and bold values. Where the data itself says which value is better (more marketplaces, a larger figure of the same marketplace, a fresher release, a verified mark on a marketplace that lists both), the better one is also marked green with ▲ and the worse one red with ▼. Where it runs, the transport, the tools, the settings, hooks, the bundle's parts, the licence and the week's changes are marked only as different: more or fewer is not better in itself.
What each says it does
ads-agent
AdsAgent turns Claude into your always-on Google Ads analyst. Audit account health, set up new campaigns from scratch, analyze Quality Score and Ad Rank, manage keywords and bids, mine search terms for negatives, generate A/B-tested ad copy, configure tracking, and run bulk operations across hundreds of keywords — all through conversation. No dashboards, no spreadsheets, no clicking through the Google Ads UI. Under the hood: 40+ MCP tools with full read/write access to your Google Ads data, plus three built-in skills — /ads for campaign management, /ads-audit for account health scoring, and /ads-copy for ad copywriting.
Ads Lighthouse MCP
Access saved Google and Bing brand-search ad observations and reports through Ads Lighthouse.
