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

google-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 11d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 94 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Strategic guide for building new Google Ads campaigns and reporting on existing accounts. Research first, consult intelligently, validate everything, and build with the granular resource tools in dependency order (budget → campaign → targeting → ad groups → ads / asset groups). The API has exactly one campaign create — google_ads_campaigns_create — and the campaign type is just advertising_channel_type; type-specific requirements are enforced by the tools' built-in validators, which return corrective errors. Reporting is GAQL-backed and evidence-first — dashboards are optional presentation surfaces.

Requirements

If google_ads_accounts_list is not in the tool list, stop and tell the user to enable Hyper MCP and connect Google Ads.

Out of scope

  • Live optimization mutations (bid adjustments, pausing keywords, restructuring existing campaigns). Reports may recommend these changes; applying them needs explicit per-change user approval.
  • Creative generation (headlines, descriptions, images) → ad-creative-generation.
  • Cross-platform campaign launches → use this skill for Google, then invoke meta-ads / tiktok-ads separately.

Tool surface

Reads are GAQL (google_ads_gaql_query covers every resource). Writes are one tool per resource operation, named google_ads_<resource>_<create|update|remove>; create/update take (customer_id, body) where body is the bare resource object in snake_case.

Tool Purpose
google_ads_accounts_list Discover accessible accounts (and MCC sub-accounts).
google_ads_gaql_query Run a GAQL query (conversion actions, search terms, any resource).
google_ads_campaign_budgets_create Create the budget first (micros!).
google_ads_campaigns_create / _update / _remove The ONE campaign create — every advertising_channel_type (SEARCH, DISPLAY, PERFORMANCE_MAX, VIDEO, DEMAND_GEN, SHOPPING, MULTI_CHANNEL for App).
google_ads_ad_groups_create / _update, google_ads_ad_groups_delete Ad groups under a campaign.
google_ads_ad_group_ads_create / _update / _remove Ads (typed: responsive_search_ad, responsive_display_ad, video / demand-gen ad types).
google_ads_keywords_create / _update / _delete / _list Keywords (positive and negative).
google_ads_locations_search, google_ads_location_targets_add Resolve location names, target them.
google_ads_image_assets_upload Image assets — accepts file_id from the workspace file manager, image_url, or base64.
google_ads_video_assets_link Register a YouTube video ID as a video asset (the Ads API cannot host video files — videos must be on YouTube).
google_ads_asset_groups_create PMax asset group (atomic: text + image assets in one call).
google_ads_conversion_actions_create, google_ads_user_lists_create, google_ads_bidding_strategies_create, google_ads_shared_sets_create, … Full per-resource CRUD surface — same naming pattern.
google_ads_request Raw escape hatch for any uncovered endpoint.
hyper_data_build_dashboard, hyper_data_refresh_dashboard Optional dashboards / data apps for reports.

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.
