What's inside
Inventory + Ad Spend Check
When the user asks to check inventory vs ad spend, use Shopify + Meta + Google Ads MCPs to:
1. Pull inventory
For every product variant: - Current inventory_quantity (across all locations) - Daily sales velocity (units sold per day, last 30 days) - Days of stock remaining = inventory / velocity
2. Pull ad spend by SKU
- Meta Ads: spend last 7 days, attributed to each product (via catalog product ID or UTM)
- Google Ads: shopping spend by item ID, last 7 days
3. Flag scenarios
Critical — <14 days of stock AND >$500 weekly ad spend (pause now) Warning — 14-30 days of stock AND >$500 weekly ad spend (fast-track restock) Stranded spend — Out of stock AND ads still running
4. Actions
For each flagged SKU: - Suggested action (pause campaign, exclude SKU from catalog, reduce daily budget) - Estimated wasted spend if not actioned - Restock urgency
5. Output
Ranked table: | SKU | Days of stock | Weekly spend | Status | Action | Owner |
Always include the exact campaign or ad set IDs so the user can act in one click.
