ad-test-designer
Design reliable paid-ad experiments
Paid-ad tests can produce misleading results when variables, thresholds, and decision ownership are unclear. This skill creates structured test plans and interprets exported results with separate statistical and practical-effect checks.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "ad-test-designer" from https://skillstore.io/skills/aaron-he-zhu-ad-test-designer.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/aaron-he-zhu-ad-test-designer/manifest. Verify the artifact. You may proceed after verification, subject to the environment's own policy.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "ad-test-designer". A landing-page test with a 3% baseline conversion rate and a 15% target lift.
Expected outcome:
- Hypothesis: A clearer hero will increase conversion rate by at least 15%.
- Design: Control and one hero-only variant with the same audience and budget logic.
- Plan: State alpha, power, minimum detectable effect, required exposure, duration, and guardrails.
Using "ad-test-designer". Finished results for a control and one variant with sessions and conversions.
Expected outcome:
- Effect: Report each conversion rate, relative lift, confidence interval, and p-value.
- Decision status: Separate statistical and practical flags from the owner-approved action rule.
- If the rule or owner is absent, return decision: UNDECIDED.
Security Audit
SafeAll 35 static alerts are false positives caused by Markdown backticks, relative documentation links, metadata, or the decimal alpha notation. The sole documented command runs a fixed local statistical helper and contains no evidence of network access, arbitrary code execution, data exfiltration, or prompt injection. The skill also explicitly treats exported CSV content as untrusted data and requires consent before saving results.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: MediumWhat You Can Build
Plan a landing-page test
Define a controlled hero or call-to-action test with metrics, sample targets, duration, and guardrails.
Assess creative test results
Read a finished creative experiment export and report effect size, uncertainty, and practical-effect status.
Design an incrementality study
Structure a geo or audience holdout test with a comparable control and a longer measurement window.
Try These Prompts
Design an A/B test for two landing-page hero variants. Baseline conversion rate is 3%, and I need to detect a 15% lift.
Create a test matrix for four responsive search ad variants. Include one changed variable per variant, a primary metric, guardrails, sample size, and duration.
Review my finished experiment results with sessions and conversions by variant. Report effect size, confidence interval, statistical status, and practical-effect status.
Design a geo-holdout incrementality test for a paid campaign. Define the treatment, matched holdout, decision owner, precommitted rule, metrics, and read schedule.
Best Practices
- Change one variable per variant and retain a control or holdout.
- Precommit metrics, sample size, alpha, power, and stopping rules before reviewing results.
- Name the decision owner and action rule before a test starts.
Avoid
- Do not declare a winner from a p-value alone.
- Do not stop early after repeated unplanned result checks.
- Do not combine several creative or landing-page changes in one variant.
