Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

tiktok-ads scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Creative Best Practices

The TikTok Creative Formula

Hook (0-3s) → Value/Story (3-15s) → CTA (last 3s)
  1. Hook in first 3 seconds — the scroll-stopping moment. Use text overlay, unexpected visual, or direct address ("Stop scrolling if you...")
  2. Native aesthetic — look like a TikTok, not an ad. Phone-shot, real people, trending sounds
  3. Sound on — 93% of TikTok is consumed with sound. Music and voiceover are critical
  4. Vertical video — 9:16 only. Never letterboxed horizontal
  5. Text overlays — 73% of top-performing ads use on-screen text
  6. Fast pacing — Cut every 2-3 seconds. Static shots die
  7. Creator-led > brand-polished — UGC-style consistently outperforms studio creative

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
