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

tiktok-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.

TikTok Ads — Performance Playbook

A pro operator's guide to planning, launching, measuring, and scaling on TikTok Ads Manager (ads.tiktok.com). TikTok is a creative-first auction: the algorithm finds the buyer if the creative earns attention. Structure and bidding matter, but creative is ~70% of performance. Optimize creative volume and the first 3 seconds before you over-engineer the account.

Adapted independently for SquadCoder. Portable across Claude Code, Codex, and opencode. Verify current limits in TikTok Ads Manager + the TikTok Business Help Center before committing budget — minimums, beta features (SPC, GMV Max), and policy change frequently.


1. Account & campaign structure

Hierarchy: Account → Campaign → Ad Group → Ad. Mirrors Meta (Campaign / Ad Set / Ad).

Campaign objectives (set at campaign level — drives optimization + available placements):

  • Reach — max unique users (CPM buy, awareness).
  • Video Views — cheap views / 6s-views (top-funnel, build retargeting pools).
  • Traffic — clicks/landing-page-views to site or app.
  • Community Interaction — follows + profile visits (grow the organic account).
  • Lead Generation — Instant Forms (native lead form) or website leads.
  • Website Conversions — Pixel/Events-API conversion events (the workhorse for e-com/lead-gen).
  • Product Sales (Catalog / Shop) — Video Shopping Ads, Product Shopping Ads, LIVE Shopping; GMV Max auto-optimizes Shop sales.
  • App Promotion — installs + in-app events (AEO/VBO via MMP — AppsFlyer/Adjust/Singular).

Account structure rules of thumb:

  • Consolidate. TikTok's smart delivery needs ~50 optimization events per ad group per week to exit Learning. Fewer, bigger ad groups learn faster than many tiny ones.
  • Don't over-segment audiences. Broad + strong creative usually beats narrow interest stacks. Start broad, let signal do the work.
  • One clear objective per campaign. Don't mix awareness + conversion intent in one campaign.
  • Naming convention so reporting is sane, e.g. [Objective]_[Audience]_[Geo]_[Date] → CONV_Broad_IL_2026-06.
  • Test → Scale split: a "testing" campaign (many creatives, small budgets) feeding winners into a "scaling" campaign (CBO-style, proven creative).

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.
