Add the Google ads keyword planner skill to your AI client
Set up the Adspirer "Keyword Universe Builder" skill for me. If you can run commands: npx adspirer-skills add google-ads-keyword-planner If not: fetch https://www.adspirer.com/skills/google-ads-keyword-planner.md and follow it. Then read the skill and ask me what you need to get started.
Paste it into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Codex, Gemini, or any agent — it works out how to install itself.
Or install it yourself
npx adspirer-skills add google-ads-keyword-planner Writes SKILL.md to .claude/skills/ in the current project. The bundled references, scripts, and assets ship with the ZIP. Download ZIP →
Upload the ZIP in Claude → Settings → Skills. The bundle preserves every reference, script, and asset.
Install the Adspirer plugin first: Cowork tab → Customize (left sidebar) → Plugins → Browse Plugins → search "Adspirer" → Install. Requires Claude Max, Team, or Enterprise. Then upload this ZIP as a skill.
In ChatGPT, open Plugins → Skills → Create → Upload from your computer. ChatGPT scans the skill before making it available. Availability and upload permissions depend on your workspace plan and admin settings.
npx adspirer-skills add google-ads-keyword-planner --agent cursor Writes the skill to .cursor/rules/ in the current workspace, so Cursor loads it on every session.
npx adspirer-skills add google-ads-keyword-planner --agent codex Appends the skill to AGENTS.md, which Codex reads on every session — so it persists instead of living in one conversation. The append is idempotent; re-running it will not duplicate the block.
npx adspirer-skills add google-ads-keyword-planner --agent gemini Appends the skill to .gemini/GEMINI.md, which the Gemini CLI reads on every session. Connect Adspirer as an MCP server first so the live ad-account steps can run.
npx adspirer-skills add google-ads-keyword-planner --agent windsurf Writes the skill to .windsurf/rules/ in the current workspace, so Windsurf loads it on every session.
npx adspirer-skills add google-ads-keyword-planner --agent other Writes SKILL.md to adspirer-skills/ in the current folder — point any agent at that file. No shell? Fetch the raw file with curl -fsSL https://www.adspirer.com/skills/google-ads-keyword-planner.md, which prints the skill instead of installing it.

When to use the Google ads keyword planner skill
A plan grouped by search intent with match types per theme, a layered negative list, and honest provenance on every volume figure.
Use case 1
A new campaign needs its keyword layer
A new product, service line, or geography needs structure before anyone writes the brief.
Use case 2
High-volume terms may be the wrong terms
Some of the biggest keywords are research intent and would spend without converting.
Use case 3
Negatives are an afterthought
The account keeps paying for the same irrelevant queries because the negative list was built from intuition rather than history.

Google ads keyword planner examples
The numbers, account, and recommendation will be yours. These show the kind of story the skill helps you work through.
New geography launch
A service business expands into a new market where volumes differ sharply from its home market.
The skill pulls volumes for the target geography, groups by intent, and separates brand into its own campaign.
No data source connected
The account is new and no keyword data provider is available.
The skill labels every volume as unavailable rather than estimating, so no invented number becomes a real bid later.

Agent skills related to Google ads keyword planner
Audience Architect
Build a cold-to-hot audience structure sized to the account's real event volume, with overlap and exclusions handled deliberately.
The Channel Mix Advisor
Recommend a channel split justified by each platform's mechanics for the stated objective, with honest reasoning and named uncertainty.
The Media Plan Builder
From a brief (product, audience, budget, goal, market), produce a defensible media plan: audience definitions, budget split across channels, flighting calendar, and a channel-mix rationale. Cross-platform. Uses Similarweb/Semrush for competitive context if connected. Plan doc, not a live launch.
Before you install
Frequently asked questions
What is the Google ads keyword planner skill?
It is an Agent Skill — a folder of instructions your AI assistant loads when you ask it to do this job. It follows the open Agent Skills specification, so the same package works across different assistants. Group keywords by what the searcher intends, match types to that intent, and build the negative list from real search-term history. Unlike a prompt you paste in, the skill carries its own procedure, checks, and stop conditions, so the assistant works the same way every time you run it.
Which AI assistants can run it?
Claude, Claude Code, Claude Cowork, ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, Gemini and Windsurf. Download the ZIP and upload it in assistants that accept skill folders, or point the assistant at the raw SKILL.md file. The install card above has the exact step for each one.
What do I need to connect before I run it?
Adspirer is required, because the skill reads live account data rather than guessing. Ahrefs is optional and only add value when the job calls for them. The skill confirms the connection before it touches a real account, and tells you plainly if something is missing.
Do I need an Adspirer account, and is there a free tier?
The skill itself is free to download and MIT-licensed. To let it read or change real ad accounts you need Adspirer connected: the free tier includes 15 tool calls a month, Plus is $49/mo for 150, Pro is $99/mo for 600, and Max is $199/mo for 3,000. You can install the skill and read what it does before signing up for anything.
Can it change my campaigns without asking?
No. Any new campaign Adspirer creates is created paused, enabling a paused or live campaign needs your confirmation, and destructive actions are gated behind an explicit confirmation flag. Spend, publishing, and live changes wait for your approval every time — installing a skill or a connector is not itself approval to act.
How do I get the best results from it?
Give it the specifics it asks for up front — the account or campaign, the date range, the goal, and what "good" looks like for this business. Let the first pass run read-only so you can check the evidence before anything changes. The starter prompt above is a working template; edit the bracketed parts and paste it in.
How is this different from just asking the assistant directly?
A plain prompt gets you a plausible answer from whatever the model already knows. This skill makes the assistant pull real numbers from your ad accounts, follow a fixed procedure, show its evidence, and stop at the points where a person should decide. That is the difference between a confident guess and a google ads keyword planner you can act on.
