Ads Create — Campaign Concept & Copy Brief Generator

Generates structured campaign concepts and platform-specific copy from your brand profile and optional audit data. Outputs

campaign-brief.md

for use by

/ads generate

.

Quick Reference

Command	What it does
`/ads create`	Full campaign brief → `campaign-brief.md`
`/ads create --platforms meta google`	Brief for specific platforms only
`/ads create --objective leads`	Brief optimized for lead generation

Process

Step 1: Check for Brand Profile

Look for

brand-profile.json

in the current directory.

Found: Load and proceed.
Not found: Ask the user:
"I don't see a brand-profile.json in this directory. Would you like to:
1. Run
  /ads dna <url>
  first to extract brand DNA automatically
2. Describe your brand manually (I'll create a basic profile from your description)"

If the user chooses manual, collect:

Brand name and website
Primary color (or "unsure")
3 words that describe the brand voice
Target audience (age, role, key pain point)
Main product/service offering

Step 2: Check for Audit Results

Look for

ADS-AUDIT-REPORT.md

or any

*-audit-results.md

in the current directory.

Found: Read them. Note the top 3 weaknesses (creative fatigue, tracking gaps, wasted spend) to address in concepts.
Not found: Continue without. Note in the brief: "No audit data found — concepts are generalized. Run
```
/ads audit
```
for weakness-targeted concepts."

Step 3: Collect Campaign Parameters

If

--platforms

or

--objective

flags were provided in the command, use those values and skip the corresponding questions below.

Ask (combine into one message — omit any already provided via flags):

Platforms: Which ad platforms? (Meta · Google · LinkedIn · TikTok · YouTube · Microsoft · All)
Objective: Sales/Revenue · Leads/Demos · App Installs · Brand Awareness · Retargeting
Offer or brief: Any specific offer, promotion, or message to highlight? (optional)
Number of concepts: How many campaign concepts? (default: 3)

Step 4: Spawn Creative Agents in Sequence

Agents must run sequentially —

copy-writer

reads the file that

creative-strategist

writes, so running them in parallel creates a race condition on

campaign-brief.md

.

Step 4a — Spawn
creative-strategist
(Task tool): This agent creates

campaign-brief.md

and writes the strategic sections:

## Brand DNA Summary

,

## Campaign Concepts

,

## Image Generation Briefs

,

## Next Steps

.

Wait for

creative-strategist

to fully complete before continuing.

Step 4b — Spawn
copy-writer
(Task tool): After

creative-strategist

completes, spawn

copy-writer

. It reads the existing

campaign-brief.md

and appends the

## Copy Deck

section with platform-specific headlines, primary text, and CTAs.

Wait for

copy-writer

to complete before proceeding to Step 5.

Step 5: Review and Present

After both agents complete, confirm

campaign-brief.md

exists and is complete.

Present a summary to the user:

✓ campaign-brief.md generated

Summary:
  Concepts: [N] campaign concepts created
  Platforms: [list]
  Copy deck: Headlines, primary text, and CTAs for each concept × platform
  Image briefs: [N] image generation briefs ready

Next steps:
  1. Review campaign-brief.md and adjust any messaging
  2. Run `/ads generate` to produce AI images from the briefs
  3. Upload copy and assets to your ad platforms

campaign-brief.md Format Specification

The following section headings are a parsing contract — agents downstream depend on these exact heading names.

Quality Gates

Minimum 3 concepts (unless user requests fewer)
Distinct angles: no two concepts share the same primary message angle
Platform fit: concepts targeting TikTok must acknowledge vertical-only format and sound-on context
Offer anchoring: if the user provided a specific offer, at least 1 concept must lead with it
Image briefs: every concept must have at least one image brief per requested platform
