What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'google-ads-api-quickstart' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'google-ads-api-quickstart' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named google-ads-api-quickstart already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/google/skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '793c036c3af827151ada918c5f8cba823ef7086d' -- 'skills/ads/google-ads-api-quickstart' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/ads/google-ads-api-quickstart' ~/.agents/skills/'google-ads-api-quickstart' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'google-ads-api-quickstart' ~/.claude/skills/'google-ads-api-quickstart' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
