Budget Pacing Tracker
Open the 'Budget Tracker' tab in my Google Sheet. For each Campaign Name, compare total Spend in the last 30 days against the Monthly Budget column. Flag any campaign projected to exceed 100% of budget before month-end, and list them in order of urgency with current Cost per Conversion. Output as a ranked table with columns: Campaign Name, Spend MTD, Budget Remaining, Days Left, Projected Overspend %.Cross-Channel ROAS Comparison
In the 'Cross-Channel Summary' tab, filter data from the last 30 days. Group by channel (Meta, Google, LinkedIn) using Campaign Name prefixes. Calculate total Spend, total Conversions, and average Cost per Conversion for each channel. Write a 3-bullet summary of which channel has the best return and which needs attention, then output a comparison table with Channel, Spend, Conversions, CPA, and a ROAS score.Weekly Client Performance Summary
Using the last 7 days of data in the 'Performance' tab, write a short client update paragraph that mentions total Impressions, total Clicks, average CTR, and total Conversions. Identify the top-performing Campaign Name by Conversions and one metric that dropped week-over-week. Keep it under 100 words, formatted for copy-paste into a client email or Slack message.Creative Fatigue Detector
In the 'Creative Performance' tab, group rows by Campaign Name for the last 14 days. For each campaign, calculate CTR (Clicks / Impressions) and Cost per Conversion for Week 1 (days 1-7) versus Week 2 (days 8-14). Flag any campaign where CTR dropped more than 20% week-over-week or Cost per Conversion rose more than 25%. Output a table with Campaign Name, Week 1 CTR, Week 2 CTR, CTR Change %, Week 1 CPA, Week 2 CPA, and a fatigue alert flag.Attribution Comparison by Campaign
In the 'Attribution' tab, compare the last 30 days of data. For each Campaign Name, calculate total Spend, total Conversions, and Cost per Conversion. Then compare these numbers against the same campaign's data from the previous 30-day period. Flag campaigns where Conversions dropped more than 15% while Spend stayed flat or increased. Output a ranked list with Campaign Name, Period 1 Conversions, Period 2 Conversions, Change %, Spend Change %, and a recommended action.Multi-Account Agency Rollup
In the 'Agency Rollup' tab, filter the last 7 days. Group rows by client using the first segment of Campaign Name (e.g., 'ClientA_'). For each client, calculate total Spend, total Impressions, total Clicks, total Conversions, and CPC (Spend / Clicks). Compute CTR (Clicks / Impressions) for each client. Output a client scorecard table with Client, Spend, Impressions, Clicks, CTR, CPC, Conversions, and a status flag (green/yellow/red) based on whether Conversions met the prior week's average.Daily Anomaly Detection
In the 'Daily Metrics' tab, look at the last 30 days of data. For each Campaign Name, calculate the trailing 7-day average for Spend, Cost per Conversion, and Conversions. Compare yesterday's values against these averages. Highlight any campaign where Spend moved more than 20% up or down, Cost per Conversion moved more than 20%, or Conversions changed more than 25%. Output a ranked alert table with Campaign Name, Metric, Yesterday Value, 7-Day Average, Change %, and a suggested cause.Automated Budget Alert Trigger
In the 'Budget Tracker' tab, evaluate the last 7 days of Spend per Campaign Name. For each campaign, calculate the daily run rate and project it forward to month-end. Compare projected total Spend against the Monthly Budget. Create an alert list of campaigns projected to exceed 90% of budget within 5 days or 100% within 10 days. Include current Cost per Conversion and flag whether the campaign is accelerating or decelerating spend. Output as a priority-ranked table with Campaign Name, Projected Month-End Spend, Budget, Days Until 90%, and Alert Level.Audience Overlap Scanner
In the 'Audience Analysis' tab, filter the last 14 days. Group Campaign Names by audience segment (use the second segment of the name, e.g., 'Segment_Retargeting'). For each segment, calculate total Impressions, total Clicks, CTR, and total Conversions. Identify segments that appear in multiple campaigns with high overlap (similar Impressions and Clicks across campaigns). Flag segments where CTR differs by more than 30% between campaigns. Output an overlap matrix with Segment, Campaign A, Campaign B, Impressions A, Impressions B, CTR A, CTR B, and Overlap Risk.Video Drop-Off Analysis
In the 'Video Performance' tab, filter the last 30 days for campaigns with 'Video' in the Campaign Name. Calculate total Impressions, Clicks, CTR, and Conversions for each video campaign. Compare Week 1 (days 1-7) versus Week 4 (days 22-30) performance. Flag video campaigns where Impressions stayed flat or grew but CTR dropped more than 20% or Conversions dropped more than 25% over the month. Output a drop-off report with Campaign Name, Week 1 Impressions, Week 4 Impressions, Week 1 CTR, Week 4 CTR, Week 1 Conversions, Week 4 Conversions, Drop-Off Flag, and a recommended next step.Google Sheets MCP safety
Porter authenticates to Google Sheets with the read-only scope you already approved for your reports. Anthropic Claude queries Porter — not Google Sheets directly — so every conversation is rate-limited and cached at Porter side. No new permissions, no ban risk.
- Caching. Porter caches recent query results for 15 minutes per (account, field set) so repeated Claude prompts don’t hit the API again.
- Batching. Multiple field requests are merged into a single `spreadsheets.values.batchGet` call when possible (max 10,000 cells per call).
- Backoff & retry. Exponential backoff on 429 responses (1s → 2s → 4s → 8s).
- Per-account quotas. Porter tracks per-account daily usage and pauses queries before hitting 80% of the 300 req/min project quota.
- Read-only enforcement. Porter never requests write scopes from Google Sheets, so even compromised tokens cannot modify spreadsheet data, formulas, or sharing settings.
- Audited tools. The MCP exposes 6 read-only methods:
get_blend_id,list_accounts,list_categories,list_data_sources,list_fields,query_data.
