v0.2.13 — Free's weighted operations in the daily, audit and weekly costs

0.2.13 (2026-10-20, written against AdCopilot v2.43.1, deployed 2026-10-20 17:51 UTC): the release checklist below says its steps must be run before this version is tagged, and 0.2.13 is released by the founder's choice on 2026-10-20 ("do the plugin release") without its real-account steps 1 to 6, as 0.2.10 and 0.2.12 were, and without the eval suite, as 0.2.10 was, because the change is text only. Step 7: both claude plugin validate --strict runs pass, and so do the structure tests in tests/test_structure.py; neither the suite nor the tools-only ablation has been run for this text. One change to what the plugin tells the model (#23), and nothing to the manifest but the version: Free's weighted operations. From v2.43.1 AdCopilot counts a Free workspace's calls in weighted operations: a full audit or an account health score counts 4, an analysis such as budget pacing 2, listing audiences 2, and every other call 1, except the four that never counted (AdCopilot's own get_org_context and save_org_context, get_resource_metadata and list_accessible_customers), which still count 0, while a paid plan and a running trial count every call 1, and a trial held to Free's 10 a day (paused for its card, or waiting for its first charge) counts as Free does. The daily skill keys its cost on get_org_context's org.ops_weighted, which v2.43.1 adds to the org block, because a held trial's plan still reads pro. The daily skill's cost (in its run and in its set-up), this README's, /adcopilot:audit's (6 of Free's 10 for its two calls) and /adcopilot:weekly's (about 5 or 6 for its four reads), each with 1 or 2 more for every related read run, now say so: the morning check's five reads come to 7 operations at that table, and a run to about 8 to 10 of Free's 10. Nothing changes for a paid plan. AdCopilot sends ops_weighted only while its weighting switch is not off (v2.43.1 runs it at free); set back to off, the daily skill says reads again on its own, but this README and the two commands would overstate Free's cost, so this text goes back with the switch. .gitignore now keeps Python's compiled caches out, and tests/test_structure.py holds each sentence and fails on a tracked cache. The marker in every file moves to claude-plugin/0.2.13, and so does the plugin.version the eval fixtures' get_org_context answers carry. AdCopilot reads any version from 0.2.7 on, and v2.43.1 is live, so nothing on the server waits for this version.

Release PR: #27, which includes #23.

v0.2.12 — the read ceiling is one answer's size; dated, counted findings; approval with its condition; a read-only habit offer

What the plugin tells the model (nothing in the manifest but the version):

• The read ceiling is how much one answer is sized for, not a limit to quote. A workspace with no daily limit never hears limit words.
• One capabilities list, the server's, instead of the plugin's own copy.
• Findings carry their dates and counts as the server states them.
• An approval is always given with its condition ("if X" is checked or carried into the sentence, never turned into a step).
• The daily-habit offer stays its own paragraph and says it is a read-only check: "A read-only check that runs by itself every weekday at 8:07 would have caught {the finding} on its first morning, opening with "All clear" or "Needs a look" plus one yes/no fix."
• Evals: stricter graders; "read-only" counts for the value line; naming /schedule is not a set-up step.

How it was released:

• Tagged on 2026-10-19 by the founder's choice, without the real-account steps 1 to 6 of the release checklist, as 0.2.10 was.
• claude plugin validate --strict passes for both manifests, and the structure tests pass (207).
• The suite ran under Claude Code 2.1.303, judge sonnet, against AdCopilot v2.42.0. Every case passes at 0.8 except the three habit-offer cases. Those split by run-to-run variance: the same unchanged case passed in one run and failed in the next. The founder chose to ship v8's wording.
• The tools-only ablation is green. review-follows-related-reads holds as a guard. meta-connector-absent, review-question-first-roomy and daily-scheduled-run are gated, with deltas of +0.333, +0.292 and +0.238.

v0.2.10 — a finding that says "if X" is not a step, the auditor reads key events, full_audit's depth as it behaves, and adcopilot-meta

0.2.10 is tagged without its release gate. Neither the eval suite nor the tools-only ablation has been run on this release's text. The founder chose on 2026-10-13 to tag it anyway, so the tags match what has been published from main since 2026-10-12. The gap is described under Gate below.

What changed

• A finding that says "if X" is not a step. Some lens findings carry a condition in their own text. Every surface that relays a lens's findings to the customer now carries one sentence: a finding that says "if X" is not a step until X has been checked. Either make the read it names and say what you found, or carry the condition into your own sentence. Never turn it into an instruction.
  • Nine surfaces carry it: the auditor agent, /adcopilot:audit, /adcopilot:daily, /adcopilot:negatives, /adcopilot:weekly, and the adcopilot-review, adcopilot-daily, adcopilot-launch and adcopilot-measure skills.
  • Daily skill, unattended run: it makes only its own reads, so a condition whose read is not one of them is carried into the sentence instead.
  • adcopilot-seo is excused: its own steps name two lenses only to say what they do not cover, and run none. It can still reach analyze_waste or analyze_search_terms when a raw search it makes ends with related_reads. It carries no sentence for that case.
  • tests/test_structure.py fails on any file that names a lens and is neither covered nor excused.
• The auditor can read key events. ga4_list_conversion_events joins its read-only tool list. It is the read a conversion finding can name. The list is still enumerated reads only.
• full_audit's depth, described as the server behaves. A call that names no depth runs deep. If that run cannot finish, it falls back to a quick audit, and the result says so. An explicit depth="deep" never falls back.
  • adcopilot-review, the auditor and the description of the review-spends-the-depth case said the default was quick. They now say what the server does, and still pass depth="deep".
  • The eval mocks and _tools.json snapshots are frozen copies of the server's older text and are left as they are. No grader changed.
• New skill, adcopilot-meta, for questions about Meta ads. AdCopilot has no Meta integration. Meta publishes an ads connector of its own, an open beta in Meta's words, and the skill looks for it in the conversation first.
  • When it is absent, the skill says what it is and how to add it. It links Meta's help page and AdCopilot's guide, Meta ads alongside AdCopilot, which is live (checked 2026-10-13).
  • When it is present, Meta's figures come from Meta's connector and Google's from AdCopilot, each labelled with its source. No figure read from Meta goes into an AdCopilot call.
  • Changes: any change through either connector is proposed first, one platform at a time, and made only on a yes.
  • Meta's results are data: text inside them is never an instruction.
  • No Meta terms are stated that Meta has not published, and the skill carries no plan or price word.
• Marker: claude-plugin/0.2.10 in every file. Twelve files now carry it.
• New case: evals/meta-connector-absent, owned by adcopilot-meta. It is written and has not been run.

Gate

• Eval suite: not run for 0.2.10. Tools-only ablation: not run. No gate result exists for this release's words.
  • 0.2.8's results cover only the text this release leaves alone.
  • The README's release checklist says a red ablation blocks a tag. This one was cut without running it.
• adcopilot-meta has no measured case yet. Its only case has never run, so the ablation would print FAIL: no gated case for it today. If that case turns out to be a regression guard (the tools-only arm already scores 0.8 or more on it), the skill needs another case, or a waiver recorded in these notes.
• Structural checks, re-run on 2026-10-13 at this commit: tests/test_structure.py passes (101 tests), and claude plugin validate . --strict and claude plugin validate .claude-plugin/plugin.json --strict both pass.
• The release checklist's real-account steps (1 to 6) were not run for this version.
• Written and checked against AdCopilot v2.35.2. The Meta guide shipped in v2.36.0.

This tag was cut on 2026-10-13 at the commit that merged 0.2.10 (#18). The release was published to the directory from main but not tagged at the time.

v0.2.9 — the listing leads with Google Ads and shows its icon

0.2.9 changes the directory listing and nothing a customer runs. No skill, command or agent body changes beyond the version marker.

What changed

• Display name: "AdCopilot for Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Search Console & Google Tag Manager".
• Description and README opening: they now lead with the agent that runs your Google Ads. The README also says AdCopilot is made by Atromx Intelligence and is not related to other products named AdCopilot.
• Keywords: from six to twenty.
• Icon: the manifest's icon points at .claude-plugin/icon.png, a 1024x1024 PNG of the same mark as icon.svg, because the directory cannot display an SVG given as a path.
• Two directory warnings addressed:
  • The auditor agent's tool list drops Read, which it never used. The list is still enumerated reads only.
  • A .gitignore comment no longer mentions running anything.
• Marker: claude-plugin/0.2.9 in every file. AdCopilot v2.34.10 and later read it like 0.2.7 and 0.2.8.

Gate

• Eval suite and tools-only ablation: not run for 0.2.9. No skill, command or agent text changed beyond the marker, so 0.2.8's results stand for the text: 22 of 22 cases at 0.8, overall 0.946, all seven skills ok, under Claude Code 2.1.296 with judge sonnet. They say nothing about any later Claude Code build.
• Structural checks, re-run on 2026-10-13 at this commit: tests/test_structure.py passes (69 tests), and claude plugin validate . --strict and claude plugin validate .claude-plugin/plugin.json --strict both pass.
• The release checklist's real-account steps (1 to 6) were not run for this version.

v0.2.8 — follow the server's related_reads, use the lens where one exists

0.2.8 follows the server's related_reads. It is written against AdCopilot v2.34.19, the release whose lens results end with related_reads and whose get_org_context answer carries question_map.

What changed

• Following related_reads: every skill, command and agent that reads the account now does what the server says about a result that ends with related_reads:

  • run the ones that bear on the question, at most three, then answer from everything held;
  • never repeat a read already held;
  • offer, not chase, the related_reads those reads bring back;
  • reads only, so a change still waits for your yes.

  adcopilot-daily's unattended run skips them.

• Lenses instead of hand-written searches: where a flow wrote a search by hand for what a lens already returns, it now uses the lens.

  • adcopilot-review names the lens for each kind of narrow question, and reads change_history when the numbers moved.
  • The audit command and the auditor agent are told the same.
  • adcopilot-launch reads the first week's search terms with analyze_search_terms.

• /adcopilot:weekly reads change_history for who changed what, and the ad and campaign status for what Google switched off itself.

• question_map: adcopilot-review and the auditor use it when get_org_context returns it.

• The auditor's read-only tool list gains explain_conversion_gap.

• New case: review-follows-related-reads.

Gate

• Eval suite: green, from a spliced run, under Claude Code 2.1.296 with judge sonnet, on commit a20a389.

  • The suite stopped at its $20 ceiling after 20 of 22 cases.
  • The remaining two (setup-signed-out and unrelated-request-stays-quiet) were run on their own on the same commit, build and judge, and scored 1.000 each.
  • All 22 cases pass at 0.8, overall 0.946.

• Tools-only ablation: green, all seven skills ok:

  Skill	Delta over tools-only
  docs	+0.444
  seo	+0.324
  launch	+0.318
  review	+0.282
  connect	+0.241

v0.2.7 — every yes closes the loop, the marker carries the version

0.2.7 is the release the server's routing waits for. Every interactive get_org_context call now passes source: "claude-plugin/<version>", with the manifest's version, at fourteen sites in eleven files. From AdCopilot v2.34.10 the server reads that version: on a call from 0.2.7 or later it hands the turn to the installed skill that owns the account's situation (adcopilot-connect, adcopilot-launch, adcopilot-measure or adcopilot-review) instead of repeating that skill's steps in its own playbook.

What makes the hand-over safe

• Every yes closes a loop:
  • adcopilot-review applies the fix, reads back only what the result does not show, says how to undo it, records it and proposes the next fix the same way.
  • /adcopilot:audit ends on its first fix, as a proposal.
  • A yes to a finished scheduled run re-reads what the fix touches before the change is made.
• adcopilot-review carries the two rules the server's counted-account branch used to state:
  • no bidding change in the weeks after something went live;
  • on a day with few look-ups left, the sized reads first, then the proposal.
• A routed turn still does the request it was given. One sentence in every marked file is keyed on the answer's plugin.skill.
• The daily-habit offer also stops on routine.own_schedule saved or unavailable, which the set-up now records.

Gate

• Eval suite: green on its second run, once and not spliced, on commit 3bd07bd under Claude Code 2.1.293 with judge sonnet. 21 of 21 cases passed at 0.8, overall 0.942.

• Tools-only ablation: green, all seven skills ok:

  Skill	Delta over tools-only
  review	+0.500
  docs	+0.444
  seo	+0.347
  daily	+0.275
  measure	+0.274
  launch	+0.267
  connect	+0.189

• The first run was red (17 of 21). The fix round is recorded case by case in the README.

• Written against AdCopilot v2.34.10 (connector tools revision 7b2eee34).

0.2.6 — what the first live run found

The first release shaped by running the plugin against a real Google Ads account rather than against fixtures.

v0.2.5 was proven on files: 21 mocked eval cases, a tools-only ablation, structure tests, both validators. None of that had touched a live account from the published build. On 2026-10-07 it did — seven surfaces, driven by blind agents that had not seen the test plan so they could not grade their own answers. Every run was read-only; 0 writes in all seven transcripts.

Eight candidate findings went through first-hand verification against primary sources, and the two highest-severity ones through two adversarial passes each. Three survived as plugin defects.

Fixed

adcopilot-seo let the rows become a verdict. Asked where the site ranks for its own name, the reply opened "Wherever people search '…', Google shows you at or near the top" and closed "Your name already wins where people search for it." It had followed the skill exactly — refused to read the average position out as a rank, narrowed by country — and its own middle section explained why the headline was unsafe: Search Console has a row only for a search where the site was shown, so the rows cannot say where people searched and did not see you. The skill's rules were scoped to the number; nothing covered the verdict drawn from it. One sentence in "What breaks" now does.

/adcopilot:audit answered from the saved profile instead of a read. It stated a budget, a split and a lost-impression share from saved decisions, and was wrong on all three — projecting a month from a split that had been raised days earlier, and calling a campaign budget-limited on a thirty-day average that spanned the change. The rule that prevents this was written into adcopilot-review and nowhere else, and /adcopilot:audit loads no skill, so nothing stood between a stale note and the reply. The rule is now on this path, with the window clause the review skill never needed: a thirty-day share describes those thirty days' budgets, not today's.

The auditor never said where the yes happens. Its definition states the constraint, but as a rule about its own behaviour — the report section never asked it to tell the reader. A priced proposal with an undo beside it reads as a change already made. It also gains a read-only change_history, so a change can be attributed instead of listed as unknown.

And a guard that was claimed and absent. Nothing held the auditor's tool list to reads, although the whole safety case for an unattended subagent rests on it. The new AuditorToolList bans write verbs rather than enumerating reads, so a read added later passes and a write fails however the server names it — verified by injecting write tools and Bash and watching the guards fire.

What the gate measured, and what it did not

Validators pass; 54 structure tests. The three cases whose inputs changed were re-run under claudeVersion 2.1.292: seo-discovered-is-not-a-verdict 1.000, seo-two-numbers-that-lie 0.926, audit-stale-tools 0.905 — 3/3 above the 0.8 threshold, overall 0.944. The seo ablation was re-run on both arms under the same build: +0.250 and +0.148, both cases gated, skill ok.

The other eighteen cases are carried over from the 2.1.289 run against byte-identical text. There is no whole-suite run under 2.1.292. Stated plainly because this project's own rule is that scores compare only within a build.

Release checklist step 6 — the scheduled run's Run now — was not run for this version. It needs an interactive click. Nothing in this release touches the daily or scheduled path.

A finding about the harness, not the plugin

seo-two-numbers-that-lie scored 0.852 on the tools-only arm under 2.1.289 — above the line, so a regression guard, excluded from the delta, which is what left adcopilot-seo with no gated case and threw 0.2.5's first ablation FAIL. Under 2.1.292 the same case text with the same judge scores 0.778, so it is now a gated case and the skill has two.

Nothing in the case or the skill changed between those numbers. A case's class is a property of the build as much as of the case, and a skill can pass or fail the gate on a client upgrade alone. Never carry a class verdict across builds.

Known and tracked

#10 relaying a conditional connector finding as an instruction · #11 the price rule says three different things (README vs skill vs an eval grader's name) · #12 plugin.json's "Needs approval" names a claude.ai control Claude Code has no equivalent for · #13 eval coverage gaps, including that the auditor subagent has no case at all · #14 claude mcp list in setup

Three eval cases are sketched in #13 and deliberately not added in this release: a new case needs a 5-run baseline to know whether it gates or is only a regression guard, and an unbaselined case can silently fail a skill's gate.

v0.2.5 — three new skills, the first subagent, and a case for every skill that ships

Three new skills, the plugin's first subagent, and a case for every skill.

What is new

adcopilot-review — the everyday skill. "How are my ads doing?" answered
in one pass: the account read, what it cost, what is wasting money, and one
change proposed with the money spelled out both ways. It opens with
full_audit at depth="deep" over the window being reported — the default is
quick, which scores three of seventy-three checks month-to-date — and says
how many checks the audit could actually score rather than letting the unscored
ones pass as passes. It takes the cost ranking from analyze_waste, because
the audit orders its findings by severity and not by money.

adcopilot-docs — the questions asked before anyone connects an account.
What AdCopilot can do, how many look-ups are left today, which plan, what it is
allowed to change, where data goes, what to do when a call fails — answered
from a live read, never from memory. Prices are linked, never quoted. The
no-delete guarantee leads on the part that does not depend on the assistant
behaving: the server refuses a REMOVED status outright, and a negative keyword
is the one deliberate exception. The approval is stated with its condition,
because a customer who has allowlisted the write tools or runs in an
auto-approving mode deserves to know what they turned off.

adcopilot-seo — Search Console. Written backwards from a real review in
which four readings of Search Console data were wrong before they were caught:
the sitemap's "indexed": "0" is a field Google stopped filling, an average
position is averaged across every country and device and is not a rank,
impressions are not demand, and one URL inspection is not coverage. It says
what the connector cannot see — no site-wide coverage list, no manual actions,
no security issues — and asks for the Pages export rather than guessing. It
also refuses to offer gsc_request_indexing as the fix for an unindexed page:
it calls Google's Indexing API, which Google documents as crawling only
JobPosting and BroadcastEvent pages, and returns success either way.

adcopilot-auditor — the first subagent. A full account audit end to end,
returning findings with the numbers behind them and the changes worth making.
It holds nineteen read tools and no write tool, so it cannot apply anything;
the conversation that spawned it takes the customer's yes.

And the thing that makes a skill keep its place

Each of the seven skills now owns at least one eval case it earns, which is
what the release gate reads: a skill with no case of its own fails it outright,
because nothing measures it. The four new cases are built by subtraction — each
grades only what its skill's body adds over the connector plus its own
frontmatter description. That changed what the review case measures: the live server's own
playbook for a running account already says "at most three findings, biggest
money first", and the lens's own description already says its findings come
back by severity and not by impact, so neither is the skill's contribution.

Fixed in review

Two rounds found fourteen things and every one held. The worst were a pair of
false guarantees in the docs skill — "Nothing is applied unattended" and
"Nothing is ever deleted" — and the same false claim about negative keywords in
four files, caught one file at a time across three rounds. Three tests now hold
the line: a general no-delete claim must name its exception, every interactive
component that reads the server must carry the plugin marker, and the README's
skill list is derived from disk. The auditor, documented as never applying a
change, had shipped with mcp__plugin_adcopilot_adcopilot__* and Write.

RELEASE GATE, as run:

• AdCopilot v2.34.x, connector tools_revision 7016a0aa, read live on 2026-10-06. Individual tool descriptions carry their own revision — full_audit, budget_pacing and the GA4 admin tools read 6145d0b5 in the same listing — so a difference between two tools is not a fault.
• Claude Code 2.1.289, judge sonnet, --no-publish.
• claude plugin validate . --strict and claude plugin validate .claude-plugin/plugin.json --strict both pass. tests/test_structure.py: 51 tests pass. No piped-installer pattern; gitleaks finds nothing.
• Eval suite: 20 of 20 cases passed at the 0.8 threshold, overall 0.939, $18.18, 1,191 seconds. The three new cases — review-spends-the-depth, docs-safe-to-let-loose, seo-two-numbers-that-lie — scored 1.00 on every run. The four lowest were audit-stale-tools 0.81, habit-offer-code 0.83, connect-unknown-product 0.84 and connect-teaches 0.87, the same cases that moved between 2.1.280 and 2.1.288.
• Tools-only ablation, in two parts, same judge and same build:
  • All 20 cases, both arms (tools-only $15.22): six of the seven skills green on the first pass — review +0.500, docs +0.370, launch +0.295, daily +0.294, measure +0.238, connect +0.189 on their gated cases, every minimum above the 0.05 floor.
  • It failed adcopilot-seo, and the failure was the case's fault rather than the skill's: the baseline scored seo-two-numbers-that-lie 0.852, above the 0.8 line, so it was classed a regression guard, left out of the delta, and the skill was left with no gated case. Six of that case's seven graders pass on the baseline. Three traps written as the skill's knowledge are things a capable model already does — it passes row_limit without being told to, does not reach for a write tool unasked, and knows an average position is an average.
  • seo-discovered-is-not-a-verdict was written for what the baseline actually gets wrong, and re-run for both seo cases: baseline 0.750, failing the-cause-is-googles-not-a-guess 0/3 — every judge, every run. Asked why a page Google has found and never fetched is not indexed, the baseline returns a verdict on the page's content every time. With the skill it scores 1.00, so the delta is +0.250 on mean and minimum alike, and the sibling case keeps its guard duty at 1.00.
  • Composed table, re-scored through delta.py --fail-below 0.05: all seven skills ok — review +0.500, docs +0.370, launch +0.295, daily +0.294, seo +0.250, measure +0.238, connect +0.189, every minimum above the floor. It is two runs spliced rather than one: the 20-case run plus the --case 'seo-*' re-run, same judge and same build, with no commit touching skills/, agents/, commands/ or the manifest between them.
  • Two negative deltas in the full run, audit-stale-tools -0.095 and habit-offer-code -0.167, are each one llm rubric that both arms fail some of the time with every deterministic grader passing in both. The second is the one the 0.2.4 notes already record as judge-flaky.

NOT run, and whose they are: checklist steps 1 to 6 — the fresh-profile install from the marketplace, the /mcp Google sign-in, /adcopilot:setup and /adcopilot:audit in that fresh profile, and the scheduled run's Run now. Each needs an interactive sign-in or a click in a scheduler, so they are the releaser's. What was checked instead, read-only through the live connector on the real account: get_org_context reaches all four products, and full_audit(depth="deep", days=14) and budget_pacing both answer — 73 checks attempted, 75% coverage, health 58/100, and a pacing finding that is wrong for a documented reason (adcopilot#684). If a fresh install fails, this tag should be pulled rather than patched.

v0.2.4 — the morning check as a schedule, and a scheduled run that only reads

Each AdCopilot flow now ends by offering to turn the morning check into a schedule. A new skill, adcopilot-daily, runs that check with nobody there and only reads.

The offer. /setup, /launch, /measure, /audit, /daily, /weekly and /negatives all close with the same short offer, worded for where you are:

• in claude.ai, Cowork or the desktop app, a Claude scheduled task;
• in Claude Code, a routine via /schedule.

The offer is not a question, and it comes at most once a conversation. It never appears in an unattended run, and it waits for a campaign that is switched on. It stops once AdCopilot reports a schedule: routine.daily.status user_set, or a date in routine.scheduled_last_seen_at. These are the two fields that stop AdCopilot's own offer. AdCopilot's emailed check-in does not count as a schedule.

adcopilot-daily.

• The run calls get_org_context with source: "claude-scheduled", which AdCopilot records from v2.30.2. It reads pacing, search terms, disapprovals and recent changes, and never asks anything along the way. It opens with "All clear" or "Needs a look" and ends with one yes/no fix. It skips manager accounts, whose figures Google refuses.
• The set-up hands over AdCopilot's own morning-check recipe (SCHEDULED_CHECKIN) word for word, with the steps for each surface. It says plainly what keeps a scheduled run to reads: the instructions. On Automatically approve, or in a Claude Code routine, every tool runs without asking. The one enforced stop is setting Write/delete tools to Blocked, and then no chat can change the account either.

Commands. /daily now reads budget pacing, the last 7 days of search terms, disapprovals and change history. /weekly and /negatives are new. /negatives proposes keywords, adds them only after a yes, then reads them back.

README. "Change anything in a scheduled run" is no longer listed under "What it will not do". Nothing on AdCopilot's side enforces it, so the schedule section says what does and does not.

RELEASE GATE, as run:

• AdCopilot v2.30.2. The recipe copy is identical to schedule_recipe.py on its main branch.
• Claude Code 2.1.289, judge sonnet, --no-publish.
• claude plugin validate . --strict passes. tests/test_structure.py passes all 49 tests in CI, and gitleaks finds nothing.
• Habit cases:
  • Every case passed the 0.8 threshold on both runs.
  • habit-offer-chat scored 1.00, then 0.96; habit-recorded-stays-quiet scored 1.00.
  • habit-offer-code and habit-offer-untold scored 0.83 and 0.86 both times. Each failed one run in two on the offer rubric, and in every failed run the closing offer is word for word the sentence the passing runs end on.
  • Re-judged outside the harness, both of those replies pass.
• daily-scheduled-run scored 1.00 on 3 runs. Tools-only ablation: 1.00 vs 0.65, delta +0.35 for adcopilot-daily.
• launch-manual-settings, setup-duplicate-server and unrelated-request-stays-quiet scored 1.00 on one run each. audit-stale-tools scored 0.71, as under 0.2.3; the offer is correctly absent there.

v0.2.3 — the plugin marks its own use, and the listing stops promising an approval it cannot enforce

The skills and commands now call get_org_context with source: "claude-plugin". From v2.29.0, AdCopilot uses it to record per workspace that the plugin, not a hand-added connector, is in use. A call without it behaves as before. In the eval runs on this head, every one of the 25 get_org_context calls carried the marker, and a new grader (marks-plugin-use) now fails any case that drops it.

The listing and the README no longer say "every change is proposed and waits for your approval". AdCopilot does not enforce that. Your AI client asks before each change while the write tools stay on Needs approval (in Claude Code: while it still prompts for them). AdCopilot can never delete, and a new campaign is still built paused.

On claude.ai, a connector added by hand before the plugin is the same connector, not a shadowed second copy. The README and /adcopilot:setup now say so, and the install steps give the directory link and Customize → Plugins → AdCopilot → Add → Connectors → Connect. The Claude Code shadowing note and its fix are unchanged.

RELEASE GATE, as run:

• AdCopilot v2.29.0, connector tools revision 782ec74d. The eval snapshot is 0066a60e, apart from get_org_context, which is 782ec74d.

• Claude Code 2.1.288. Agent claude-opus-5-5, judge sonnet (claude-sonnet-5-5).

• Both --strict validations pass, and gitleaks finds nothing.

• Suite, full run on the same plugin text (84efc09): 8 of 12 cases at 0.8, overall 0.851. v0.2.2 in the same build: 7 of 12, overall 0.854. No case regressed in a way a re-run reproduces. The cases still under 0.8, audit-stale-tools, connect-link-order and measure-teaches, were under it on v0.2.2 too.

• Tools-only ablation on c9d31b5: red on one case, published by the founder's decision on 2026-10-04.

measure-import-trap fails one rubric, not-done-one-primary-with-the-path. On reading, the six failing replies meet all five of its conditions:

• not done, because the four automatic events are Primary;
• the bidding consequence;
• the Goals → Conversions path to Secondary;
• sign_up as the only Primary;
• a read-back to confirm.

The judge's three votes split on four of the six. v0.2.2 also fails that rubric in 2 of 6 runs, given the same live get_org_context description. Tuning the measure skill against it is a follow-up, not part of this tag.
