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

analyze-social 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 61 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Analyze Social (watch a video/post for the user)

Overview

Turns a social link (or local video) into material you can actually read: sampled frames you view with native vision, a full transcript, and the post's caption. Then you write a thorough breakdown. A bundled cross-platform Python pipeline does the fetching/transcribing; you do the understanding.

When to use

  • The user pastes an Instagram / TikTok / YouTube / YouTube Shorts / X (Twitter) URL.
  • The user gives a local video file path.
  • The user asks to watch / analyze / transcribe / summarize a video, reel, short, or post.

Workflow

  1. Run the pipeline (use the Bash tool):

    python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/analyze.py" "<URL or local file path>"
    
    • The first run auto-installs its tools (yt-dlp, gallery-dl, a Whisper engine, and ffmpeg). Tell the user this one-time setup can take a few minutes and may ask them to approve installs. Subsequent runs are fast.
    • Useful flags: --no-transcribe (frames + caption only, faster), --target-frames N, --lang <code>.
  2. Read the printed result block. It ends with ERROR_CODE, BUNDLE, TYPE, FRAMES, TRANSCRIPT. Handle the error code:

    • NEEDS_LOGIN → the content is private/login-walled. Ask the user: "Which browser are you logged into that platform on? (chrome / firefox / safari / edge / brave)" then re-run with --cookies-from-browser <browser>. Only do this when the user has opted in — reading browser cookies is sensitive and may trigger a keychain prompt.
    • RATE_LIMITED → tell them to wait a few minutes, or retry with --cookies-from-browser to use their logged-in session.
    • SETUP_FAILED → show the MESSAGE (usually a one-line command to install ffmpeg) and offer to run it.
    • none → success, continue.
  3. Load the bundle. Read manifest.json (the contract) from the BUNDLE path, then:

    • Read meta.txt (caption + metadata) and, if present, transcript.txt.
    • View the frames with the Read tool — a spread across the timeline (first, several middle, last) for video; all slides in order for an image carousel. You read on-screen text/captions directly from the frames; no separate OCR.

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.
