Can I use Google Ads as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Google Ads CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Google Ads through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Google Ads tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Google Ads credentials stored?

Google Ads credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Google Ads MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Connect Google Ads to Claude Code

Connect local KosmoKrator integrations to Claude Code through one scoped MCP gateway entry.

Add KosmoKrator as a stdio MCP server in the Claude Code project config and select the integrations that should be visible. The gateway is local, scoped to this integration, and starts with --write=deny so Claude Code can inspect read-capable tools without receiving write access by default.

Google Ads MCP Config for Claude Code

Claude Code can launch the local kosmo binary directly from the project MCP config.

}
