google-ads-write-safety is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from swan-gtm/gtm-skills. It costs 107 tokens per session (871 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A safety process for changing a live Google Ads account. It proposes changes, shows the current and new values, asks for approval, and confirms what was actually executed.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps review and safely apply bid changes, negative keywords, budget edits, campaign changes, and new ads or campaigns in Google Ads.

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-write-safety 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 9d 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.

Write Safety for AI Agents on Google Ads Accounts

Applies the moment an agent moves from reading an account to writing to it. The account is real money and the advertiser's livelihood — a hallucinated success message isn't a rough edge, it's a trust catastrophe the first time it happens.

The play

  1. Classify the request by blast radius before touching anything: read-only, low-risk (a single keyword, negative, or bid move within a tight band), or account-level (budget swings, conversion tracking, campaign creation or deletion).
  2. Default to propose-only — pull data, calculate, recommend, but execute nothing without an explicit go-ahead. An authorization covers the specific action just approved, never the rest of the session.
  3. Keep the low-risk band actually low-risk: bid moves within roughly ±20%, negatives only against clear waste (spend with zero conversions), no whole-campaign pauses, no budget swings past ~20%, and never touch conversion actions or billing without a separate, explicit approval.
  4. Before executing, show a preview — current value, proposed value, and what triggered it (the search term, the CPA, the pacing). New campaigns and new ads get created paused, full stop, so a human reviews before spend starts.
  5. Require an explicit confirmation tied to that specific preview. "Go ahead," "do it," "approved" counts; a related-but-different message, or silence, does not. Batch operations still get one itemized preview — never a blanket yes for a list the human hasn't actually read.
  6. Execute, then produce a receipt: the operation, the exact resource changed, the before/after state, and how to reverse it. If nothing else survives, the receipt should.
  7. If the write failed, partially applied, or the tool was never called, say so in plain language immediately. Never generate a receipt for something that didn't happen, and never imply full success when only part of a batch went through.

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.
