PREREQUISITE: Read ../_mureo-shared/SKILL.md for auth, security rules, output format, and Tool Selection (Read/Write on Code, mureo_strategy_* / mureo_state_* MCP on Desktop / Cowork).
Analyze budget allocation and suggest rebalancing across all campaigns.
-
Load context: Read STRATEGY.md (Operation Mode, Market Context, Goal sections, Data Sources) and STATE.json.
-
Discover platforms: Identify all configured ad platforms from STATE.json platforms. Also include any hosted official-MCP connector present in the session (e.g. TikTok, key tiktok_ads) — drive it via its own tools and skip mureo-only value-adds; see ../_mureo-shared/SKILL.md → Hosted-connector platforms.
-
Analyze budget efficiency: For each ad platform:
- Google Ads: prefer mureo native — call
google_ads_budget_efficiency (campaign × budget × spend × conv ratio) and google_ads_performance_report for the period. In BYOD mode, budget.efficiency may return [] because daily budgets aren't carried in the Apps Script bundle — fall back to performance.report cost / conv numbers and rank by CPA. If mureo's Google Ads tools are unavailable (e.g. MUREO_DISABLE_GOOGLE_ADS=1 after mureo providers add google-ads-official), fall back to the official google-ads-official MCP for the performance report only, then skip google_ads_budget_efficiency (mureo-only analysis) and rank campaigns by CPA from the raw cost / conv numbers yourself; note to the user that mureo's automated budget-efficiency scoring requires the native MCP (mureo setup claude-code).
- Meta Ads: prefer mureo native — call
meta_ads_insights_report and meta_ads_analysis_cost. In BYOD mode, daily budgets aren't surfaced — rank by spend × result_indicator-aware conversions instead. If mureo's Meta Ads tools are unavailable, fall back to the official meta-ads-official hosted MCP for raw insights only, then skip meta_ads_analysis_cost (mureo-only cost-trend analysis) and the result_indicator-aware ranking; rank by raw spend / conversions from the official MCP's response instead and warn the user that CV-definition mismatches across campaigns are NOT detected in this fallback path.
- mureo BYOD data is centralized in the workspace
byod/ directory (or ~/.mureo/byod/ for legacy CLI users) and is only accessible through mureo MCP tools — do not look for raw CSVs in the project directory.
-
Rank campaigns by efficiency (CPA, ROAS, or CVR depending on campaign goals) across all platforms to enable cross-platform comparison.
-
Goal-driven prioritization: Reference Goal sections from STRATEGY.md to guide allocation:
- Identify which platform is closer to achieving each Goal
- Consider shifting budget toward the platform with better Goal progress
-
Cross-platform rebalancing: Evaluate whether budget should move between any configured platforms:
- Compare CPA/ROAS across all platforms
- If one platform significantly outperforms, suggest cross-platform budget shift
- Present cross-platform comparison before within-platform reallocation
-
Organic intelligence (if Search Console is available): If organic rankings are strong for certain keywords, consider reducing paid spend on those terms and reallocating to keywords without organic coverage.
-
Conversion quality check (if GA4 is available): Incorporate conversion quality data (bounce rate, pages/session, time on site by traffic source) into budget decisions. A platform with lower CPA but higher bounce rate may not be the better allocation.
-
Mode guard: If Operation Mode is ONBOARDING_LEARNING or CREATIVE_TESTING, warn that budget changes are discouraged in this mode and ask whether to proceed.
-
Generate reallocation plan based on Operation Mode:
- EFFICIENCY_STABILIZE: Shift budget from high-CPA to low-CPA campaigns
- SCALE_EXPANSION: Increase budget for campaigns not limited by budget but performing well
- TURNAROUND_RESCUE: Cut budget from campaigns with 0 conversions
- COMPETITOR_DEFENSE: Increase budget on core brand/keyword campaigns under competitive pressure
- LTV_QUALITY_FOCUS: Prioritize campaigns with highest conversion quality
- ONBOARDING_LEARNING: Minimal changes only if user confirmed in step 9
- CREATIVE_TESTING: Minimal changes only if user confirmed in step 9
-
Present plan as a table:
| Platform | Campaign | Current Budget | Proposed Budget | Change | Reason |
|---|
-
Risk assessment: Flag any budget changes >20% (smart bidding learning risk).
-
Ask for approval before any changes.
-
Check pending observations: Before executing, check action_log for campaigns being modified. If a previous budget change is still within its observation window, warn about stacking changes.
-
Execute: Use each platform's budget update tools to apply approved changes.
-
Record outcome context: For each campaign modified, log to action_log with metrics_at_action (current cost, impressions, clicks, conversions, CPA, budget utilization) and observation_due (7 days from today for budget changes).
-
Update STATE.json with new budget values, notes, and log the rebalancing action to action_log.
