Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00088 | $0.01392 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00035 | $0.00557 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00278 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00139 |
Grade A, and why
google-ads-cli 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 today.
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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 96 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
<project_overrides> Before acting on this skill, run:
~/.agents/skills/skill-expert/scripts/load-skill-overrides.sh google-ads-cli
Apply any printed instructions alongside this skill's own workflow: they extend it and never repeal its limits. No output means no project override is in effect. A non-zero exit means the project's override file is broken -- report it and stop rather than silently running unmodified. </project_overrides>
<quick_start>
The google-ads CLI follows this pattern:
google-ads <command-group> <action> [arguments] [options]
| Task | Command |
|---|---|
| Call any official SDK RPC | google-ads api call <SERVICE> <METHOD> |
| Export measured manifest of every reachable service/RPC | google-ads api coverage |
| Show every method and request/response type for a service | google-ads api methods <SERVICE> |
| Export complete request/response protobuf fields, nested types, enums and oneofs | google-ads api schema <SERVICE> <METHOD> |
| Show every generated service without authentication | google-ads api services |
| Show versions available in the pinned SDK without authentication | google-ads api versions |
| Copy explicitly named OAuth app secrets; clear prior Ads tokens; never import another tool's tokens | google-ads auth client import |
| Configure authentication credentials | google-ads auth login |
| Clear stored credentials | google-ads auth logout |
| Create a new profile from .env.example template | google-ads auth profiles create <NAME> |
| Delete a profile and its data | google-ads auth profiles delete <NAME> |
| Get details for a specific profile | google-ads auth profiles get <NAME> |
| List all profiles and show their auth types and active state | google-ads auth profiles list |
| Delete a profile and its data | google-ads auth profiles remove <NAME> |
| Rename a profile, re-keying its secrets to the new profile name | google-ads auth profiles rename <OLD> <NEW> |
| Activate a profile within its auth type | google-ads auth profiles select <NAME> |
| Refresh OAuth access token using stored refresh token | google-ads auth refresh |
| Check authentication status across profiles | google-ads auth status |
| Test authentication by verifying credentials work across profiles | google-ads auth test |
| Get customer identity, status, currency and timezone through GAQL | google-ads customers get <CUSTOMER_ID> |
| List directly accessible customer resource names; manager descendants require GAQL customer_client | google-ads customers list |
| Search all GAQL-supported resources, metrics, segments and fields | google-ads query search <QUERY> |
| Clear local cache | google-ads cache clear |
| </quick_start> |
<essential_principles>
MANDATORY: Verify the live command shape before executing ANY google-ads command.
Consult usage.json when the repo or installed package ships it. If usage.json is absent, use google-ads --help, the relevant subcommand --help, and README.md instead. Never guess at command syntax.
What ships with it
1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

google-ads-cli is a skill published in the GitHub repository adbertram/cli-tools (6 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 88 tokens to every session and 1,392 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-11-07.
