Cline uses this MCP Server to build live ad dashboards

The `get_marketing_statistics` tool pulls real-time numbers directly into your local workspace so Cline can build a custom React component. You can tell Cline to build a dashboard, and it will actually write the code and fetch the live data. There is no need to copy-paste mock data anymore. The agent will also run `list_marketing_budgets` to populate your dashboard with actual financial limits. You watch the component build itself, connect to the live API, and display your active burn rate in real time.

Inspect campaign settings without leaving your editor

The `get_campaign_details` tool pulls down the exact parameters of any marketing campaign you specify, letting this MCP Server handle the heavy lifting. Debugging campaign setups shouldn't require logging into a slow web console. You see the raw JSON configuration right next to your code. If you need to map out the structure of your ads, the agent uses `list_ad_sets` and `get_ad_set_details` to build a local schema. It maps your ad groups and their target settings so you can see exactly how your budget is allocated.

Audit target audiences and creatives

The `list_audiences` tool inspects your active cohorts to verify that your marketing assets match your targeting criteria. Cline helps you check your active user segments without switching windows. It writes down a clean summary of who is seeing your ads. To make sure the right banners are live, the agent runs `list_ad_creatives` to pull your visual assets. It matches these files to your active ad sets so you can spot mismatched messaging before it costs you money.
