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

entity-search 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.

Entity Search - Find Specific People in Videos

Find specific people or objects in your indexed videos using reference images. Entity search lets you register a person with reference photos, then search for them across all your videos.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when the user:

  • Wants to find a specific person in their videos
  • Asks to set up face recognition or person tracking
  • Has reference images of someone they want to locate in video content
  • Wants to search for a known individual (e.g., "find all clips of John")

Prerequisites

  • Videos must be indexed with Marengo 3.0 (entity search is a Marengo 3.0 feature)
  • Reference images of the person/object (publicly accessible URLs or local file paths)
  • Free plan: 1 collection, up to 15 entities. Developer plan: multiple collections.

Instructions

Step 1: Check for Existing Entity Collections

First check if the user already has entity collections set up:

Tool: mcp__twelvelabs-mcp__list-entity-collections

If collections exist, show them and ask if the user wants to use an existing one or create a new one.

Step 2: Create an Entity Collection (if needed)

An entity collection groups related entities. Create one per logical group (e.g., "Team A", "Film Cast").

Tool: mcp__twelvelabs-mcp__create-entity-collection
Parameters:
  name: "<collection name>"

Step 3: Upload Reference Images as Assets

Upload one or more reference images for the person. Multiple images from different angles and lighting improve accuracy.

From a URL:

Tool: mcp__twelvelabs-mcp__create-asset
Parameters:
  url: "<publicly accessible image URL>"

From a local file:

Tool: mcp__twelvelabs-mcp__create-asset
Parameters:
  file: "<absolute path to image file>"

Repeat for each reference image. Collect all returned asset IDs.

Step 4: Create the Entity

Create an entity within the collection, linking it to the reference image assets:

Tool: mcp__twelvelabs-mcp__create-entity
Parameters:
  collectionId: "<collection ID from step 2>"
  name: "<person's name>"
  assetIds: ["<asset_id_1>", "<asset_id_2>"]
