Our cloud service uses streamable HTTP transport for reliable, scalable access to your Meta Ads account. No technical setup required — just connect and start launching, updating, and analyzing campaigns with AI!\n\n---\n\n## Local Installation (Advanced Technical Users Only)\n\n🚀 **We strongly recommend using [Remote MCP](https://pipeboard.co) instead** - it's faster, more reliable, and requires no technical setup.\n\nMeta Ads MCP also supports a local streamable HTTP transport, allowing you to run it as a standalone HTTP API for web applications and custom integrations. See **[Streamable HTTP Setup Guide](STREAMABLE_HTTP_SETUP.md)** for complete instructions.\n\n---\n\n### Local Installation (Advanced Technical Users)\n\nFor advanced users who need to self-host, the package can be installed from source. Local installations require creating your own Meta Developer App. **We recommend using [Remote MCP](https://pipeboard.co) for a simpler experience.**\n\n---\n\n## Licensing\n\nMeta Ads MCP is licensed under the [Business Source License 1.1](LICENSE), which means:\n\n- ✅ **Free to use** for individual and business purposes\n- ✅ **Modify and customize** as needed\n- ✅ **Redistribute** to others\n- ✅ **Becomes fully open source** (Apache 2.0) on January 1, 2029\n\nThe only restriction is that you cannot offer this as a competing hosted service. For questions about commercial licensing, please contact us.\n\n---\n\n### Local Installation Issues\n\nFor local installation issues, refer to the source repository. **For the easiest experience, we recommend using [Remote MCP](https://pipeboard.co) instead.**","github_created_at":"2025-04-11T20:53:47+00:00","created_at":"2026-07-11T11:52:56.652095+00:00","updated_at":"2026-07-27T06:00:31.758448+00:00","categories":[{"slug":"ai-agents","name":"AI Agents","url":"https://www.graphcanon.com/categories/ai-agents","markdown_url":"https://www.graphcanon.com/categories/ai-agents.md","api_url":"https://www.graphcanon.com/api/graphcanon/categories/ai-agents"}],"tags":[{"slug":"advertising","name":"advertising"},{"slug":"meta-business-partner","name":"meta business partner"},{"slug":"model-context-protocol","name":"model-context-protocol"}],"trust":{"provenance":{"is_fork":false,"github_id":964818213,"owner_type":"Organization","methodology":"github_public_v1","parent_repo":null,"near_duplicate_slugs":[]},"computed_at":"2026-07-27T06:00:30.793Z","maintenance":{"label":"Very active","score":96,"methodology":"github_public_v1","releases_90d":27,"days_since_push":3,"last_release_at":"2026-07-13T18:30:33Z"},"security_summary":{"status":"no_manifest","scanner":null,"low_count":0,"high_count":0,"last_scan_at":"2026-07-11T11:52:57.799Z","medium_count":0,"scan_profile":"mcp_manifest","critical_count":0}},"capability_facts":{"mcp":{"source":"repo_scan","observed_at":"2026-07-27T06:00:31.235Z","server_manifest":false},"scan":{"source":"repo_scan","observed_at":"2026-07-27T06:00:31.235Z"},"deploy":{"source":"dockerfile:Dockerfile","self_host":true,"observed_at":"2026-07-27T06:00:31.235Z","managed_saas":false},"has_cli":{"value":true,"source":"pyproject.toml:[project.scripts]","observed_at":"2026-07-27T06:00:31.235Z"},"languages":{"value":["python"],"source":"github.language+pyproject.toml","observed_at":"2026-07-27T06:00:31.235Z"},"has_docker":{"value":true,"source":"dockerfile:Dockerfile","observed_at":"2026-07-27T06:00:31.235Z"},"license_spdx":{"value":"Other","source":"github.license","observed_at":"2026-07-27T06:00:31.235Z"}},"decision_facts":{"hosting":null,"pricing":{"model":"freemium","summary":"A free plan is offered, designed for initial trials or small-scale operations.
