⚠ The author changed this skill after we tested it. The verdict below describes the version we ran on Jul 21, 2026; it's queued for a re-test.
Fetched SKILL.md from dist/pi/.agents/skills/ads-performance-analytics/; frontmatter parses with name+description; spot-checked 4 of 7 reference files (attribution-model-comparison, platform-reporting-quirks, common-interpretation-failures, dashboard-reconciliation-patterns) all HTTP 200 with real substance. No security smells. Clone+copy into a temp HOME placed SKILL.md and references at the correct target. For output I built a Q3 reconciliation task (Google/Meta/LinkedIn reported 1,600 conversions, warehouse 950). Baseline computed blended CAC $62.50 from summed platform conversions and recommended SCALE the 3.5x-ROAS Meta retargeting campaign; skill-following used the warehouse denominator (950) for blended CAC $105, flagged retargeting as typically 20-40% incremental, and recommended HOLD + run a geo-holdout before scaling — a reversed, better-grounded decision.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 5/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 8/10
- Docs & honesty 5/5
What Ads Performance Analytics does
A methodology skill for reading paid-media dashboards and reconciling platform-reported metrics against warehouse truth. Covers attribution models, view-through/modeled-conversion traps, multi-platform double-counting, ROAS-vs-LTV horizon, cohort analysis, statistical noise, and incrementality/geo-holdout testing. Triggers when deciding to scale/hold/kill a campaign on platform metrics, reconciling platform reports with revenue data, or evaluating agency reporting.
