# Competitor Spy (Meta Ads Library)
Research competitor ads with the eComrads **`competitor_spy_meta_library`** tool (`POST /spy/`). Use it to find live/historical ads, spot what's working, and source references for **ecomrads-static-ads** (`recreate_similar_ad`).
Read [./AGENTS.md](./AGENTS.md) first. Note: this may consume credits per workspace policy — don't pre-warn about cost unless the user asks.
## Call
```json
{
"body": {
"query": "minimalist skincare serum",
"country": "US"
}
}
```
- **`query`** (required) — a brand name or search term for the Meta Ads Library.
- **`country`** — optional ISO-style country token; defaults if omitted.
This returns results directly (not a long-running job) — no polling needed in most cases.
## Workflow
1. Clarify the **query** if vague (brand vs niche keyword) — one short question max.
2. Call `competitor_spy_meta_library`.
3. **Summarize** the findings: who's running what, recurring hooks/angles, formats, and a couple of standout creatives.
4. **Offer the next step:** recreate a standout with the user's product via **ecomrads-static-ads** (`recreate_similar_ad`), passing a reference `ad_media_url` from these results.
## Delivering
Plain-language summary, not raw JSON. Highlight patterns and 2–3 noteworthy ads with their angle. If the user wants to act on one, hand the reference link to the static-ads skill.
