# Connect Claude Code to Adspirer

> Install the full Adspirer plugin for Claude Code with agent skills, slash commands, and MCP server integration.

# Connect Claude Code

Claude Code supports two installation methods: the full plugin (recommended) or MCP-only.

## Full Plugin (Recommended)

The plugin includes the agent, skills, slash commands, and MCP server — everything you need for a complete performance marketing workflow.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Install from Marketplace">
    ```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
    /plugin marketplace add amekala/ads-mcp
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Install the Plugin">
    ```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
    /plugin install adspirer
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Authenticate">
    Run `/mcp` and find **plugin:adspirer:adspirer** — click to complete OAuth authentication.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set Up Your Workspace">
    ```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
    /adspirer:setup
    ```

    This pulls your campaign data and creates your brand workspace with `STRATEGY.md` for persistent context.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### What the Plugin Includes

| Component              | What It Does                                        |
| ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
| **MCP Server**         | 100+ tools for all ad platforms                     |
| **Agent Instructions** | Performance marketing agent with strategy awareness |
| **Skills**             | Pre-built workflows for campaigns, reviews, audits  |
| **Slash Commands**     | `/adspirer:setup`, `/adspirer:review`, etc.         |

## MCP-Only (Lightweight)

If you just want the raw MCP tools without the agent framework:

```bash theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"github-dark"}}
claude mcp add --transport http adspirer https://mcp.adspirer.com/mcp
```

<Note>
  The MCP-only approach gives you access to all 100+ tools but without the agent instructions, skills, or slash commands that make complex workflows easier.
