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

images 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 11d 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

CarsXE — Vehicle Images

Retrieve images for a vehicle using the CarsXE Images API.

Steps

  1. Parse $ARGUMENTS to extract:

    • make (required): vehicle manufacturer (e.g., BMW, Ford, Toyota)
    • model (required): vehicle model (e.g., X5, Mustang, Camry)
    • year (optional): 4-digit year (e.g., 2019)
    • trim (optional): specific trim level (e.g., Sport, Limited)
    • color (optional): vehicle color (e.g., red, black)
    • transparent (optional): true to return transparent background images
    • angle (optional): front, side, or back
    • photoType (optional): interior, exterior, or engine
    • size (optional): Small, Medium, Large, Wallpaper, or All
    • license (optional): Public, Share, ShareCommercially, Modify, or ModifyCommercially

    Example: /carsxe:images BMW X5 2019

  2. If make or model are missing, ask the user to provide them.

  3. Make an HTTP GET request:

    GET https://api.carsxe.com/images?key=<CARSXE_API_KEY>&make=<MAKE>&model=<MODEL>&source=claude_plugin[&year=<YEAR>][&trim=<TRIM>][&color=<COLOR>][&transparent=<TRANSPARENT>][&angle=<ANGLE>][&photoType=<PHOTOTYPE>][&size=<SIZE>][&license=<LICENSE>]
    

    Replace <CARSXE_API_KEY> with the value of the environment variable CARSXE_API_KEY. Only include optional parameters if the user specified them.

  4. Present the results:

    • List all returned image URLs
    • Display each image inline if the environment supports it
    • Label each image with angle/type if available
  5. Handle errors gracefully (no images found, invalid params, auth error).

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.
