What the code does

We read the source, 20 h ago · rules 3dff92dd89df

Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Runs an external command get-refresh-token-device.cjs:42
    require("child_process").execSync(`open "${dcData.verification_uri}"`);

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Connect this server

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.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add bing-ads -- npx -y mcp-bing-ads
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bing-ads": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-bing-ads"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bing-ads": {
      "args": [
        "-y",

        "mcp-bing-ads"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: BING_ADS_DEVELOPER_TOKEN (Microsoft Advertising developer token), BING_ADS_CLIENT_ID (Azure AD app client ID for OAuth), BING_ADS_REFRESH_TOKEN (OAuth refresh token for Microsoft Advertising API), BING_ADS_CLIENT_SECRET (Azure AD app client secret (optional for public clients)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Bing Ads — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Bing Ads?
Bing Ads runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package mcp-bing-ads was installed 79 times last week.
How do I connect Bing Ads?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls mcp-bing-ads straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Bing Ads?
The npm package mcp-bing-ads was installed 79 times in the last week. Week over week that is -38%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Bing Ads open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 4 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
