Google Ads runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 44 installs a week from npm. Last commit 29 Apr 2026.
MCP server for Google Ads — 22 tools for spend diagnosis, impression share, and asset performance.
Nothing serious here today
Today is the operative word: we check Google Ads every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
