Run Chewy Ads Performance Reports in Claude Desktop

The `get_performance_report` tool pulls exact spend and conversion metrics for any date range straight into your conversation. Your AI client reads the raw numbers from the MCP connection and builds an executive summary in seconds. Need granular data? You can trigger `list_adgroup_keywords` to see exactly which search terms drove sales. Claude formats the output as a clean markdown table, letting you spot wasted ad spend instantly.

Audit Your Entire Retail Media Setup

Using `list_chewy_campaigns` grabs a complete snapshot of every active, paused, or completed initiative in your account. You get immediate visibility into structure without logging into another dashboard. Digging deeper requires no extra steps. Your agent calls `list_campaign_adgroups` followed by `list_adgroup_ads` to trace a specific promotion down to the individual SKU level.

Track Budgets and Sync Catalogs via MCP Server

Checking `get_chewy_account_balance` returns your exact remaining funds and budget status in real time. Running out of money mid-month stops being a surprise. Product availability matters just as much as budget. Calling `list_chewy_catalogs` verifies that your inventory feeds are actually communicating with the ad platform correctly.
