tako-web-traffic

tako-web-traffic is a skill for Claude Code from TakoData/tako-mcp. It costs 96 tokens per session (857 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for retrieving website and app usage estimates from SimilarWeb through Tako. It covers monthly visits, app active users, traffic trends and rankings of popular sites.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to compare competitor websites, estimate monthly visits, check app usage, study traffic trends and view top-site rankings.
Why use it?
It helps answer traffic questions with usage data instead of guessing from a brand name or relying on unrelated subscriber figures. Queries should use the website’s domain, such as example.com.

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

tako-web-traffic 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 7d 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.

Web & App Traffic (Tako)

Tako serves SimilarWeb traffic data as structured, cited data: each result is a card carrying the headline value and a chart of the series. All tools below live on the Tako MCP server (server name tako). The tool descriptions and every result already carry the card fields, the sources guidance and the zero-card recovery; this skill covers how to shape a traffic query, how to check a card against the question, and how to report.

Workflow

  1. Query by domain: "netflix.com monthly visits", "chatgpt.com". Traffic data is keyed by domain, so resolve a brand to its domain yourself. For app usage, query app name + metric: "Spotify app monthly active users"; app cards are keyed by the bare app name.
  2. Call tako_search with the default sources. Web results add competitive write-ups and ranking roundups.
  3. Check the top card against the question with the list below. You have the traffic number only when the card's title is <domain> Monthly Visits, or the app's active-users card.
  4. Read the figure from description: the latest monthly value and the % change over the period. Traffic cards are licensed and don't export (exportable: false), so the description and the chart are the data; don't call tako_contents on one. Web-result urls remain fetchable.
  5. Zero cards? If the query wasn't a bare domain, make it one and retry once. If a domain query is still empty, answer from the web results and label the figure web-sourced. Don't use tako_available_data to rule a domain out: the graph resolves brands to companies, not to domains, so a domain it doesn't know can still have a traffic card.
  6. Competitive asks ("who competes with Netflix for attention", "Netflix vs its rivals")? Resolve the brand with tako_available_data to get its company node id, call tako_graph_related with relation: "rel:competes_with", map the competitors to their domains yourself, and run one domain search per site in parallel.

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.

tako-web-traffic is a skill published in the GitHub repository TakoData/tako-mcp (5 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 96 tokens to every session and 857 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-31.
