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

pinterest-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 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.

Pinterest Ads — Pro Playbook

Pinterest is a high-intent visual discovery platform: people come to plan and buy, not to socialize. Searches are forward-looking ("things I'm planning to do/buy"), so ads work best when treated like a hybrid of search + shopping + visual social. Plan for long consideration windows and strong seasonal demand curves.

This skill covers the Pinterest Ads Manager (ads.pinterest.com) and the Pinterest Marketing API. Use real platform terminology; do not invent feature names.


1. Account & campaign structure

Hierarchy: Ad account → Campaign (objective + budget) → Ad group (targeting, bid, placement, schedule) → Ad (the Pin) → Pin/creative + catalog.

Campaign objectives (pick by funnel stage)

  • Awareness — Brand awareness / video views. Billed CPM. Top of funnel, reach + impressions.
  • Consideration (Traffic) — drive clicks to site. Billed CPC. Mid-funnel, the workhorse for content + product discovery.
  • Conversions — optimize for a tracked event (Checkout, Add to cart, Signup, Lead). Requires the Pinterest tag/CAPI firing that event. Needs ~50 conversions/week per ad group to exit learning and stabilize.
  • Catalog sales (Shopping) — dynamic product ads from an uploaded catalog/product feed; can be Conversions-optimized. Best ROAS engine for e-commerce.
  • Video views / App installs / Leads (Lead gen forms) — specialized objectives where relevant.

Some objectives (notably Catalog/Shopping) gate which ad formats and bid strategies are available — choose the objective first.

Structure rules of thumb

  • CBO equivalent: Pinterest uses campaign-level "Daily" or "Lifetime" budget; budget can sit at campaign level (auto-distributed across ad groups, similar to Meta CBO) or you set per-ad-group budgets (ABO-style). For most accounts start with 2–4 ad groups per campaign, each a clean targeting theme (don't fragment spend).
  • One audience idea per ad group (keyword cluster, interest set, retargeting segment, or actalike) so you can read performance and budget cleanly.
  • Separate prospecting from retargeting into different campaigns — different bids, creative, and frequency needs.
  • Keep 5–8+ Pins per ad group so Pinterest can optimize creative; refresh regularly (Pins fatigue slower than Meta but still decay).

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.
