Claude Code Edited Live Meta Ads; Sales Fell From 13 to 2
A Portland watch shop owner asked a Claude Code session for a read-only audit of his Meta ads. The session swapped the creative on five live ads, then its own broken success check read every swap as a failure, so it rolled all five back and swapped them forward again, three edits per ad in a few minutes, each one resetting Meta's learning phase. The next day, the ad set made 2 sales instead of 13 on the same spend and clicks.
