What it does

Ima SDK Client Side is an agent skill from google/skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Supports Interactive Media Ads (IMA) SDK. Use this skill for client-side ad insertion when you are requesting video ads for websites, apps, TVs or other platforms using VAST or VMAP. Do not use for Dynamic Ad Insertion (DAI), SSAI, or SGAI.

Its SKILL.md is about 550 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `references/ima-sdk-android-guide.md`, `references/ima-sdk-ios-guide.md` and `references/ima-sdk-tvos-guide.md`).

It sits in Mobile. It works with Android and iOS. The repository describes itself as: Agent Skills for Google products and technologies. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Client-side ad insertion when you are requesting video ads for websites
  • Other platforms using VAST
  • Dynamic Ad Insertion (DAI)

Example prompts

  • “Use the ima-sdk-client-side skill to support Interactive Media Ads (IMA) SDK. An agent skill from google/skills”
  • “/ima-sdk-client-side”

Requirements

  • Node.js

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Import the SDK: Prerequisites, dependencies.
  2. Initialization: Early setup, Warmup, Settings Configuration, and Ad UI
  3. Ad Request: Creating and triggering the request, User gesture compliance.
  4. Ad Load Success/Failure: Handling the load event to get the AdsManager, or
  5. Ad Playback Events: Listening to playback events via AdsManager to
  6. Cleanup: Properly destroying the AdsManager to release resources and prevent

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8a1ac05. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Ima SDK Client Side loads about 548 tokens when it runs, and up to ~8.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 182 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~65
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~548
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~8.6k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

IMA SDK client-side

The Google IMA SDK (Interactive Media Ads) lets you load in-stream video and audio ads into websites, apps, TVs and other digital platforms. Use an IMA SDK to request ads from any VAST-compliant ad server and manage ad playback.

Prerequisites

Before integrating the IMA SDK, you must read the platform-specific guide below to support all platforms that your app can support:

Quick start (general workflow)

  1. Import the SDK: Prerequisites, dependencies.
  2. Initialization: Early setup, Warmup, Settings Configuration, and Ad UI Setup.
  3. Ad Request: Creating and triggering the request, User gesture compliance.
  4. Ad Load Success/Failure: Handling the load event to get the AdsManager, or handling early fatal errors.
  5. Ad Playback Events: Listening to playback events via AdsManager to coordinate content play/pause, and handling non-fatal LOG events and fatal active playback errors.
  6. Cleanup: Properly destroying the AdsManager to release resources and prevent memory leaks.

For detailed, platform-specific implementation details, always refer to the guides in the Prerequisites section.
