7 OpenClaw Skills for Paid Media

Each skill is a markdown file. Drop it in a folder, it works. These 7 replace your manual reporting, auditing, and optimization across Google Ads and Meta Ads.

How It Works

OpenClaw is an open-source AI agent. Runs on your machine, connects to WhatsApp or Telegram. You teach it tasks with skill files — each one is just a .md file. Drop it in ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/ and it works.

The key part is MCP connections. OpenClaw pulls data directly from your ad accounts — Google Ads, Meta Ads, GA4. No exports, no CSVs, no dashboards. You message it like a coworker: "Run an audit, target CPA is $45." It comes back with names and numbers.

Open Source

Skills are markdown files on GitHub

Each skill is a .md file. Clone the repo, drop them in your OpenClaw folder, done. Free and open source.

The 7 Skills

All 7 are free on GitHub. Each is a markdown file you drop in a folder.

Get skills

1. Performance Auditor

Full account health check. Flags anomalies, ranks issues by revenue impact.

"Full audit. Target ROAS is 4.0. What's broken and what's the priority fix order?"

2. Bid and Budget Manager

Finds wasted spend. Returns specific dollar amounts to shift, not vague suggestions.

"Target CPA is $40. Which campaigns should I pause, scale, or adjust bids on?"

3. Creative Analyst

Spots fatigue before you notice it. Tracks CTR trends over 7/14/30 day windows.

"Which ads are fatiguing? CTR trend over 30 days, flag anything declining."

4. Audience Architect

Flags saturated audiences, detects overlap, suggests new segments to test.

"Which audience segments are saturated? What should I exclude vs. scale?"

5. Pacing Monitor

Catches over and under delivery early. Tells you the exact adjustment to hit monthly target.

"Check budget pacing across all campaigns. Which are over or under delivering?"

6. Cross-Platform Comparator

Google vs Meta side-by-side. Recommends where to shift budget based on marginal CPA.

"Compare Google Ads vs Meta Ads this month. Where should I shift budget?"

7. Weekly Report Generator

Sends a WhatsApp summary every Monday. Spend, conversions, CPA, ROAS, top 3 actions.

"Weekly report. Every Monday 7am. Google + Meta. Send via WhatsApp."

Limitations

  • Not real-time. It checks when you ask. No 24/7 spend alerts.
  • Skills are markdown, not code. Easy to edit, but output depends on the LLM interpreting instructions correctly. Sometimes you refine the wording.
  • Won't replace judgment. It gives you data and recommendations. You decide.
