Arcads AI Video is an agent skill pack and prompting workspace for creating marketing videos and images through an Arcads account. Claude Code and Cursor users use it to produce advertising creative with Arcads' video, image, audio, and template tools. The catalogue entries provide the skills, instructions, hook, setting, and rule that support this workflow.
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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00155 | $0.01728 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00062 | $0.00691 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00031 | $0.00346 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00015 | $0.00173 |
Grade A, and why
meta-ad-builder 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 1mo 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 — 146 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Meta ad builder
Turn a finished creative — typically the output of a generative-AI skill in this workspace — into a live Meta ad. The skill covers three phases: research (optional) → copy → deploy. It talks to the Meta Marketing API directly via ported, parameterized Python scripts.
When to use this skill
Trigger on phrases like:
- "deploy this video to Meta" / "publish this as a Facebook ad"
- "build/launch a Meta ad" / "push this creative into "
- "create a Meta ad with this image and copy"
- "pull my top-performing ads" / "what are my best ads by ROAS"
- "research competitor ads" / "pull 's ads from the Ad Library"
Do not use this skill to generate creative — that's pixar-style-ad,
claymation-ad, generate-youtube-thumbnail, uni1-image-ad, etc. Do not use
it to write AdTable/Airtable rows — that's adtable-light. This skill is the
direct Meta Marketing API deployment step.
Read order
- This file — workflow, decision tree, safety rules.
- prompting/copy-guide.md — the 5-body / 5-title /
3-description frameworks and the
--copy-fileJSON shape. - reference/deploy-patterns.md — creative spec mechanics, video polling, retry, failure modes.
- reference/meta-api-cheatsheet.md — the full Meta Marketing API reference (campaigns, ad sets, ads, enums, gotchas, Ad Library). Consult as needed; don't read end-to-end.
Prerequisites
- Env (in
.env— see your repo's.env.example):META_ACCESS_TOKEN(required) — long-lived token withads_managementscopeMETA_AD_ACCOUNT_ID(required) — with or without theact_prefixMETA_PAGE_ID,META_IG_USER_ID,META_PIXEL_ID(optional defaults for deploy)META_API_VERSION(optional, defaultv23.0)
- Python deps:
python3 -m pip install -r scripts/requirements.txt - A target ad set that already exists. The skill deploys ads into an existing ad set — it does not create campaigns or ad sets. If the user needs a new ad set, create it in Ads Manager or via the cheatsheet §3–§4 first.
- The finished creative on disk — an image or video file path. Chat-pasted files are not accessible; ask the user for a real path.
What ships with it

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.

meta-ad-builder is a skill published in the GitHub repository krusemediallc/arcads-claude-code (1,625 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 155 tokens to every session and 1,728 once invoked, about $0.0006 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 2026-08-30.
