Pull the ads a competitor is running right now on Meta (Facebook/Instagram) and Google, then extract the hooks, offers, CTAs and landing pages worth modelling. Use when writing ad copy, planning creative tests, choosing a landing page angle, or when the user asks "what is X advertising", "what ads does X run", "find competitor ad hooks". Reads live Ad Library and Ads Transparency data through the Tracetify MCP; falls back to a manual Ad Library walkthrough when the connector is absent.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Ad Angle Research Turn a competitor's live ads into a short, sourced list of angles the user can test. The output is a creative brief, not a growth story: what they say, to whom, with what offer, where the click lands, and how long each ad has survived. ## Start with the decision Confirm the competitor domain and what the user is about to make: ad copy, a landing page, a creative test plan, or a positioning check. If the user's own product and audience are unknown, ask once; otherwise state the assumption and continue. Keep competitor facts separate from the user's context throughout. ## Get the ads **With the Tracetify connector** (tool names may be prefixed, e.g. `mcp__tracetify__research_competitor_ads`): 1. **Ask before the paid lookup.** A fresh `research_competitor_ads` lookup costs 3 Tracetify credits; the same domain re-queried within a week is free. Before the call, including the first one in a session, tell the user the domain and that price, and wait for an explicit yes. A request to research the competitor is not that yes. If they decline, continue with the manual route below. Do not call it repeatedly for the same domain in one session. …

How to install
mdr add davepoon/buildwithclaude/ad-angle-research@sha256:4daf446eb8a52164The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.c565f46, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
