surf

surf is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from BlockRunAI/blockrun-mcp. It costs 110 tokens per session (1,926 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A single service for retrieving cryptocurrency information from exchanges, blockchains, wallets, prediction markets, social sources, and news. On-chain SQL means querying blockchain data with database-style commands.

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking token prices and exchange order books, querying blockchain activity, identifying wallet labels and net worth, comparing prediction-market positions, and searching crypto social posts or news.
Why use it?
It brings several kinds of crypto research into one interface instead of requiring separate data services for prices, wallets, chains, markets, and news.

    Skill enumerates or reads other installed skills. Access to other skills' SKILL.md files or the skills directory reveals prompt instructions, capabilities, and secrets that should be invisible to peer skills.
    Fix: Remove all code or instructions that list or read other skills' files or directories. Skills should operate independently; cross-skill access is a privilege escalation.

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

surf 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 16d 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.

Surf — retired on BlockRun (2026-09-06)

Surf (asksurf.ai) is no longer served through BlockRun. Since 2026-09-06 the gateway answers every /v1/surf/* path with:

HTTP 410
{"error":{"code":"endpoint_retired","message":"The Surf data endpoints are retired. We are looking for a new vendor in this space and expect to publish a replacement under /api/v1/."},
 "retired_on":"2026-09-06",
 "alternatives":[{"for":"crypto, equity, FX and commodity prices","endpoint":"/api/v1/crypto/price"},
                 {"for":"protocol TVL and yields","endpoint":"/api/v1/defillama/*"},
                 {"for":"prediction markets","endpoint":"/api/v1/pm/*"},
                 {"for":"DEX quotes and swaps","endpoint":"/api/v1/zerox/*"}]}

Verified live 2026-09-08 with an unauthenticated GET (a 410 is free to fetch). sol.blockrun.ai answers 404 on the same paths, and /api/openapi no longer lists any Surf route. No 402 is ever issued, so no payment can be made.

blockrun_surf was removed from the server in 0.49.0 and is no longer one of the 19 tools: a tool that can only return an error is not worth the schema every agent carries on every turn. An MCP client will answer an unknown-tool error if a config still names it. Nothing can be charged either way. Do not describe this as a temporary outage — it is not; route the question with the table below.

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.
