A command for searching European patents through the European Patent Office's online patent service or Google BigQuery, a system for querying very large datasets.

Use it to find European patent publications, search by keywords or patent classifications, and inspect application, grant, and procedural information.

It brings patent text, legal status, patent-family links, and applicant or inventor details into one search instead of requiring separate manual checks.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00020	$0.01593
Opus 5	$0.00010	$0.00796
Sonnet 5	$0.00004	$0.00319
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00159

Security

Grade A, and why

search-epo 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 10d 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.

EPO Patent Search

Search European patents using the EPO Open Patent Services (OPS) API and Google BigQuery.

Query: $ARGUMENTS

What This Command Does

Provides two complementary European patent search methods:

EPO OPS API - Official EPO database with full-text EP publications, legal status, patent family links
BigQuery (country="EP") - 100M+ worldwide patents filtered for European patents, fast keyword/CPC search

Search Methods

EPO OPS API (Detailed EP Data)

Best for:

Full-text EP patent retrieval
Legal status and procedural history
Patent family linking (INPADOC families)
Applicant/inventor search
EP publication details (A1, A2, B1, B2)

BigQuery (Fast Broad Search)

Best for:

Quick keyword search across EP patents
CPC classification browsing
Filing trend analysis
Cross-jurisdiction comparison (EP vs US vs CN)

Combined Workflow

For comprehensive EP patent research:

Start with BigQuery - Broad keyword search, filter country="EP"
Identify CPC codes - Extract from relevant results
Deep CPC search - BigQuery CPC search for thorough coverage
EPO OPS details - Get full text, legal status, family data
Family analysis - Use family_id to find related filings worldwide

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.

search-epo is a command published in the GitHub repository RobThePCGuy/Claude-Patent-Creator (179 stars, last pushed 16d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 20 tokens to every session and 1,593 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
