Turns a search-terms report into two standing outputs: new keywords/ad-groups harvested from converting queries, and a negative-keyword + n-gram waste list built from queries that spent without converting. It is the recurring mining loop that campaign-architect used to carry as a mode — that skill now owns account structure only, and this skill owns the search-term harvest and negative hygiene. It scores the ROAS S (Spend-efficiency) lever it works on and hands off; it does not compute the final RQS.
Search Term Miner is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the research-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/search-term-miner/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when the user asks to "mine my search terms", "find new keywords from converting queries", "build a negative-keyword list", or "cut wasted paid spend"; harvests converting queries into new keywords/ad-groups, builds a standing negative-keyword list and an n-gram waste report from the search-terms export, and delivers a maintenance diff (add / negate / move). Not for account structure — use campaign-architect; not for budget split — use budget-optimizer; not for computing the final RQS — use ad-account-auditor.
The Search Term Miner Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 196,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
