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	$0.01161	$0.01161
Opus 5.5	$0.00464	$0.00464

Security

Grade A, and why

bitpanda-mcp CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2mo 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.

Makes network callslowCapability

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Project

bitpanda-mcp — MCP server for the Bitpanda platform. Built with FastMCP 3.x, Python 3.11+, uv.

Commands

uv sync                        # install dependencies
uv run pytest                  # run tests
uv run ruff check src/ tests/  # lint
uv run ruff format src/ tests/ # format
uv run bitpanda-mcp            # run the MCP server (stdio)
uv build                       # build wheel + sdist into dist/

Architecture

src/bitpanda_mcp/server.py — FastMCP server, lifespan, tool registration
src/bitpanda_mcp/config.py — pydantic-settings, env vars
src/bitpanda_mcp/auth.py — Bearer token auth for HTTP mode
src/bitpanda_mcp/logging.py — stdlib logging configuration, JSON formatter, PII filter
src/bitpanda_mcp/clients/ — async httpx clients, get_bp_client() for dual stdio/HTTP mode
src/bitpanda_mcp/tools/ — MCP tool functions (all read-only)
src/bitpanda_mcp/models/ — Pydantic models for API responses
src/bitpanda_mcp/prompts/ — MCP prompt templates
ci/docker/ — multi-stage Dockerfile, entrypoint script
.github/workflows/ — CI (lint, test on 3.11–3.14, security audit, build) and publish (PyPI on release)
.github/dependabot.yml — automated dependency updates (uv + GitHub Actions)
tests/ — pytest + respx mocks, 100% coverage

Packaging

src-layout with hatchling build backend
Version single-sourced in pyproject.toml, read at runtime via importlib.metadata
Console script entry point: bitpanda-mcp → bitpanda_mcp.server:main
Installable via pip install ., pip install git+https://..., or from built wheel
Docker: multi-stage build, runtime image has no uv/curl/source — only Python + installed venv

Dual transport

stdio (default): BITPANDA_API_KEY in env, single pre-built client
HTTP (FASTMCP_TRANSPORT=streamable-http): per-request Bearer token auth, stateless for horizontal scaling
Tools use get_bp_client(ctx) from clients/__init__.py which handles both modes

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.
