Meta Ad Spy

Competitive intelligence skill for spying on competitor ads using Meta's Ad Library. Use this skill whenever the user wants to: research competitor Facebook/...

This skill appears to do what it says — automate Playwright scraping of Meta's Ad Library and optionally query the Graph API — but it asks you to install system-level Python packages and a headless Chromium binary and uses browser-stealth techniques. Before installing or running it: (1) avoid running pip with --break-system-packages on machines you care about — use a virtualenv or container; (2) run the scraper in a sandbox or isolated environment because it will download browser binaries and interact with external websites; (3) be aware Phase 2 needs a Meta access token if you want spend/impression data — supply that only if you trust the code and environment; (4) consider legal/ToS implications of scraping Meta; and (5) if you don't want to install binaries locally, prefer using vetted APIs (the references mention paid alternatives) or a hosted scraper service.
