parity-audit

A comparison method for deciding which differences in a migrated implementation are required for matching the original behavior.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when auditing migrations involving server and client roles, network transport, language-model use, tools, and credentials.
Why use it?
It separates necessary compatibility work from optional convenience layers, making extra complexity easier to explain and review.

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

parity-audit 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 yesterday.

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

Parity Audit

Use when

  • A migrated implementation looks "more complex" than the reference
  • You need to tell whether that complexity is required for behavioral parity or just convenience/portability work

Method

  1. Inspect the reference branch's runnable entrypoints, not just summaries.
  2. Identify the behavioral contract:
    • transport
    • server/client split
    • LLM involvement
    • tool exposure/orchestration
    • credential model
  3. Mark everything in the target implementation as either:
    • parity-critical
    • ergonomic/portability add-on
  4. Explain any extra complexity in human terms: "hidden by the original SDK" vs "new convenience layer".

Example from this repo

  • Parity-critical: Python tool-schema translation + tool-call loop, because C# M1 uses AsAIAgent(... tools: [.. tools]).
  • Extra ergonomics: .env.local, CLI overrides, env alias lookup, API-key fallback, interactive chat polish.
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.

parity-audit is a skill published in the GitHub repository alonf/MCPPythonDemo (0 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 253 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 2026-08-31.
