X Ads runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. Last commit 24 Sep 2026.
X Ads MCP server: 25 read tools, 19 opt-in preview-first writes.
Today is the operative word: we check X Ads every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start:
X_ADS_ACCESS_TOKEN (User OAuth 2.0 token. Keep it secret.), X_ADS_ACCOUNT_IDS (Comma-separated allowed account IDs. Required even for reads.), X_ADS_SCOPES (Scopes actually granted to the token, including ads.read.), X_ADS_ENABLE_WRITES (true enables write tools. Defaults to false.).
The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
