    Fix: Set explicit rate limits, timeouts, and resource quotas for API calls, file operations, and compute. Implement circuit breakers for runaway loops.

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

free-weather-data 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 11d 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.

Free Weather Data API — Open-Meteo & wttr.in

Get current weather, forecasts, and historical weather data using free APIs. No API keys required. Privacy-respecting alternative to paid weather APIs ($5-100/month).

Why This Replaces Paid Weather APIs

💰 Cost savings:

  • 100% free — no API keys, no rate limits
  • Comprehensive data — current, forecast, historical weather
  • Open source — Open-Meteo is fully open-source
  • Privacy-first — no tracking or data collection

Perfect for AI agents that need:

  • Weather conditions for location-based decisions
  • Forecast data for planning and scheduling
  • Historical weather data for analysis
  • Weather alerts and monitoring
