Frankfurter is an open-source API that provides daily currency exchange rates collected from institutional sources. Developers use it to retrieve currency data, convert amounts, or run their own instance with Docker. The catalogue entries are add-ons for working with the API.

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 | $0.01434 | $0.01434 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00574 | $0.00574 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00287 | $0.00287 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00143 | $0.00143 |
Grade A, and why
frankfurter AGENTS.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 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 79 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Frankfurter
Frankfurter is a currency data API tracking reference exchange rates from institutional sources. Built with Roda, SQLite (via Sequel), Puma, Rufus scheduler, and Cloudflare.
Commands
# Test and lint
APP_ENV=test bundle exec rake # Lint and test suite
APP_ENV=test bundle exec rake rubocop # Linter only
APP_ENV=test bundle exec rake spec # Test suite only (rerun once if SQLite3::BusyException occurs)
# Database & Blends
bundle exec rake db:setup # Migrations + seed providers
bundle exec rake backfill # Backfill all providers (or backfill[key])
bundle exec rake blend:rebuild # Full rebuild of materialized blend tables
bundle exec rake blend:parity # Verify table vs live blend query parity
bundle exec rake rollups:rebuild # Rebuild weekly and monthly rollups
# Local server
bundle exec puma -C config/puma.rb # Web server on :8080
bundle exec foreman start # Web + scheduler (mirrors prod)
Separate SQLite databases per environment (APP_ENV). Minitest suite with VCR/WebMock and transactional rollback.
Architecture & Blending
- Pipeline: Native provider rates, less one-day spikes (
RateSpike), rebase to USD pivot (BaseConversion), outlier-screened (Consensus), recency-decay weighted (WeightedAverage), and peg-anchored (PegAnchor). - Materialized Blends: Sparse tables (
blended_rates,blended_weekly_rates,blended_monthly_rates) store precomputed USD blends. Plain V2 queries hit these tables directly; missing buckets or filtered queries fall back to live computation. - APIs: Legacy V1 (ECB-only) and V2 (multi-provider/blended) mounted in
lib/app.rb. OpenAPI specs atlib/public/v1/openapi.jsonandlib/public/v2/openapi.json. - Provider Ingestion: Scheduled in
bin/schedulevia cron expressions indb/seeds/providers/*.json. Adapters (lib/provider/adapters/) handle pure fetch and parse. Usemidpoint(buy, sell)for bid/ask sources to avoid float noise. - Currency Patches: Historical currencies and name overrides are configured in
db/seeds/currency_patches.jsonand loaded vialib/currency_patches.rb.
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.
