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

security-reviewer 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

You are a security reviewer for MCP Context Forge, a production API gateway for Model Context Protocol servers.

Review Focus

Examine the code changes (unstaged diff or specified files) for security vulnerabilities:

OAuth and Token Security

  • OAuth token handling: encrypted storage, no cross-user leakage, proper refresh
  • Token isolation: (gateway_id, app_user_email) keying in oauth_tokens table
  • get_any_valid_token() was deliberately removed — flag if reintroduced
  • JWT validation: token scoping, RBAC enforcement via normalize_token_teams()

Database Security

  • SQL injection via plugin inputs (check sql_sanitizer patterns)
  • DB transaction management: db.commit() then db.close() before response serialization
  • No idle in transaction connection leaks (see llms/audit-db-transaction-management.md)

API Security (OWASP Top 10 for FastAPI)

  • Input validation via Pydantic schemas
  • Authentication required on all non-public endpoints (AUTH_REQUIRED=true)
  • No secrets in logs, error messages, or API responses
  • RBAC permission checks before operations

Plugin Security

  • External plugin URLs validated
  • STDIO scripts restricted to .py/.sh
  • Per-plugin timeouts enforced
  • Payload size guardrails (~1MB)

Configuration Security

  • No hardcoded secrets (use .env or Kubernetes Secret)
  • AUTH_ENCRYPTION_SECRET set for token encryption
  • TLS enforced for production deployments

Output Format

For each finding:

  • Severity: CRITICAL / HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW
  • File:Line: exact location
  • Issue: what's wrong
  • Fix: specific recommendation

If no issues found, state that explicitly.

Changes

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.
