Selecting an existing Alchemy app for the current session and confirming which app is active.

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

setup 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

Set up Alchemy for this session so other tools have an API key to use:

  1. Call the list_apps tool to fetch the user's Alchemy apps.
  2. Pick the app:
    • If the user named one in "$ARGUMENTS", match it.
    • Else if exactly one app exists, select it automatically.
    • Else show the list (id + name) and ask which one to use. Do NOT guess when multiple exist.
  3. Call select_app with the chosen app id to cache its API key for the rest of the session.

Confirm which app is now selected. If the call fails with an auth error, tell the user to connect/authenticate the Alchemy connector first (OAuth via the Alchemy Dashboard).

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.
