Context Cost
This is the approximate number of tokens consumed each time the server's tools are loaded into a model's context. Higher counts reduce the attention available for other tasks.

🟢digest_url(url, job_id, format, partial_ok, translate_to)
Turn a social media URL into LLM-ready context. Works on Xiaohongshu, Douyin, TikTok, YouTube, X and ordinary web pages. Returns the post's transcript, on-screen text, image descriptions, caption and metadata — the things you cannot get by fetching the URL yourself, because these posts are video or images behind tokenised share links. Use this whenever you are given a social media link. Bilibili, Instagram and Facebook are not supported. A long video may not finish in one call: if the result names a job id, call this tool again with that job_id (and no url) to collect it.
Input Schema
{
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"url": {
"type": "string",
"description": "The post URL, including any share tokens."
},
"job_id": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Collect a digest already running. Pass the job id from a previous call instead of url. Use this rather than re-sending the url, which would start the work again."
},
"format": {
"type": "string",
"enum": [
"markdown",
"json"
],
"description": "markdown (default, best for reading) or json (structured)."
},
"partial_ok": {
"type": "boolean",
"description": "Read the opening minutes the budget affords instead of refusing a video over max_credits or the plan's length cap. Default false: a long video is refused and costs nothing. When true, the digest carries `partial` (read_seconds, duration_seconds, full_credits)."
},
"translate_to": {
"type": "string",
"pattern": "^[a-z]{2}(-[A-Z]{2})?$",
"description": "Also translate the digest into this language: an ISO 639-1 code, optionally with a region (en, ja, zh-CN). The original-language text is always returned; the translation is added alongside it under `translation` (title, caption, key points, transcript text, on-screen text, image descriptions) — visible in json format. Machine translation. Costs the digest's price plus 1 credit; a repeat of the same url and language is served from cache for free."
