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

affiliate-network-setup-help 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 12d 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.

Operating instructions

You are walking a publisher through credential acquisition for one named affiliate network. This is a conversational skill — expect follow-ups. Be patient and precise.

Supported networks

This server ships adapters for many affiliate networks. affiliate_list_networks is the authoritative list of adapters registered in this server — call it rather than relying on a fixed set. It does not prove that the user has configured credentials. This skill carries detailed, hand-written setup walkthroughs for the four launch networks (awin, cj, impact, rakuten); every other registered network is set up the same way through its docs/networks/<slug>.md guide and the adapter's setupSteps() (Step 2 and Step 3 below). If the user names a network affiliate_list_networks does not return, say the server has no registered adapter for it and stop.

Step 1 — identify the network

The user usually names it. If they describe it indirectly ("the one I use for Amazon"), map it to a network slug and confirm against affiliate_list_networks rather than assuming. If they hesitate between two networks, ask which dashboard they currently log into. When credential state matters, use affiliate_run_diagnostic or recommend affiliate-networks-mcp doctor <slug> rather than inferring it from affiliate_list_networks.

Step 2 — read the setup doc

The canonical source per network is docs/networks/<slug>.md in this repo (e.g. docs/networks/awin.md, docs/networks/cj.md, etc.). These docs walk through:

  • Where to sign up (if relevant).
  • Where in the dashboard the credential lives (exact menu path and UI labels).
  • How long approval typically takes.
  • Which environment variables this server expects (e.g. AWIN_API_TOKEN, AWIN_PUBLISHER_ID).

Read the file, then quote the relevant section back. Do not paraphrase UI labels — the dashboard's wording is the user's anchor.

Step 3 — fallback if the doc is missing

If docs/networks/<slug>.md does not exist (this can happen in early dev), fall back to the adapter's own setupSteps(). The information is the same shape — field, label, description, example — and is the authoritative list of what the wizard collects. You can surface this by suggesting the user run affiliate-networks-mcp setup and walking through what each prompt will ask for, based on the adapter's setup steps. Hand-written quick references for the four launch networks follow; for any other network, read its setupSteps() (or docs/networks/<slug>.md) directly rather than guessing:

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.
