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

threads-lyr CLAUDE.md 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 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.

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

CLAUDE.md — threads-lyr

Threads.net MCP server via anonymous scraping. Cloned from facebook-lyr, stripped to Threads-only. Public profiles are viewable anonymously — no cookies, no login, no session state.

Commands

uv run pytest -q                 # tests
uv run ruff check .              # lint
uv run ruff format .             # format
uv run threads-lyr --list-tools  # list tools
uv run threads-lyr               # start MCP server (stdio)
uv run threads-lyr get_threads_profile --username zuck

Key files

  • threads_mcp_server/scraping/api_client.py — ThreadsScrapeClient
  • threads_mcp_server/scraping/parsers.py — parse_threads_profile, parse_threads_posts
  • threads_mcp_server/tools/threads_tools.py — tool registration
  • threads_mcp_server/server.py — create_mcp_server()

Rules

  1. Keep it anonymous — never add cookie/login machinery.
  2. Tools are read-only; use readOnlyHint annotations.
  3. Follow AXI output conventions (TOON, error:/help:).
  4. This project will grow later (Threads API writes); structure new code under tools/ + scraping/ like facebook-lyr.
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.
