Build AdButler Dashboards in VS Code

Cline uses `get_performance_report` to pull live impressions and click-through rates straight into your workspace. You tell the agent to build a React component for your marketing metrics, and it fetches the real numbers to use as mock data. The agent writes the code, imports the statistics, and generates the test files in one pass. You review the diff and merge it, watching your custom ad reporting tool come to life without leaving the editor.

Audit Campaigns and Creatives

Verifying asset deployment takes seconds when you let the agent run `list_campaigns` alongside `list_creatives`. Cline pulls your active self-serve setups and matches them against the stored banners and video files. If a campaign points to a missing asset, it'll flag the discrepancy in your terminal. You catch configuration errors early by letting the tool cross-check the raw API responses against your local project files.

MCP Server Placement Mapping

Finding out where your ads live starts by executing `list_publishers` to grab your network roster. Cline reads the output, extracts the necessary IDs, and immediately fires `list_zones` to return the active placements. The agent writes a JSON configuration file mapping every publisher to their respective zones. You drop that generated config straight into your backend application, completely skipping the manual data entry phase.

Common questions about AdButler MCP in Cline

Open the Cline sidebar and click the MCP Servers icon. You can use the Remote Servers tab to add the Vinkius URL via Streamable HTTP transport. Alternatively, edit your settings JSON and paste the configuration there.

Yes. Tell the agent to build a reporting widget, and it'll pull actual CTR and impression metrics to populate the initial state. You get functional code tested against real responses.

The server exposes aggregated ad performance statistics. You can grab impressions, clicks, and CTR across different zones and campaigns. The agent handles the date formatting and metric type selection automatically.

By default, the agent asks for approval before executing commands. You can configure it to run trusted operations like pulling publisher lists autonomously if you prefer a hands-off workflow.

The Vinkius infrastructure processes your CTR metrics and campaign lists in a zero-trust environment. Nothing gets stored permanently on the server side. Your endpoint token authenticates the request, and the isolated sandbox destroys itself after the tools return their payload.
