How we review

Extended accessThe tool runs code or makes network calls and only reads external data.

  • Prepares a bundle that, after approval, may go on to be uploaded into an ad account
  • Works with images and their rights; a manifest error could create legal exposure

This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.

What it does

The skill builds not a single banner but a whole creative system: it first routes the hypothesis to either the data-backed or the no-history skill depending on whether the account has delivery data, and validates the resulting handoff file against its schema. It then picks a context (general Unified Performance, carousel, product gallery or mobile app) and plans three to five genuinely different visual concepts. A technical validator inspects images, builds approximate 1:1, 4:3, 3:4 and 16:9 crop previews, and a manifest builder records source, rights and a stable asset id. Compatibility of every image, headline, text, CTA and landing combination is checked as its own claim with fail-closed logic: an unknown compatibility cell blocks the READY_FOR_UPLOAD status. The skill does not autonomously upload images, save ads or launch campaigns.

Who it is for. For people preparing creative sets for Yandex Direct combinatorial ads who want every combination checked for compatibility before upload.

Good fit when

  • You need several genuinely different visual concepts for one brief, not a single banner
  • You need to check whether an image fits the required 1:1, 4:3, 3:4 or 16:9 formats
  • You need an asset manifest with source and rights before uploading to Direct

Not a fit when

  • You just need one finished image, not a whole concept-and-compatibility system
  • You need automatic image upload or campaign launch: the skill will not do that
  • You have no valid hypothesis-handoff.json from one of the companion hypothesis skills

Example request

I have a hypothesis handoff for a carousel, prepare three concepts with crops and a manifest for upload

Limitations

Does not guarantee moderation approval; it only checks technical requirements against the official data current when the references were last refreshed. Needs Python dependencies from requirements.txt for the crop and validation scripts. An unconfirmed image rights status or an unknown compatibility cell blocks the bundle from being upload-ready. Install targets Codex via the skills.sh registry.

How to disable. Remove the skills/ya-direct-combinatorial-creatives directory from your agent's installed skills.

FAQ

Does the skill upload images to Direct itself?

No, any external transmission or advertising mutation needs exact approval and readback right at the moment of the action.

What if a combination has no compatibility data?

The skill blocks READY_FOR_UPLOAD: an unknown compatibility cell, unconfirmed rights or a regulated-category gap stops readiness.

README in short

The README describes the MVP: hypothesis routing, a versioned handoff contract, technical image validation, approximate crop previews, conservative manifest generation, fail-closed compatibility checks and external-action gates. It gives the Codex install command, a link to a separate ARCHITECTURE.md covering the whole skill series' architecture, and local validation commands including dependency install.
