Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00043 | $0.00188 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00094 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00038 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00019 |
Grade A, and why
international-vin 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.
What it actually says
When the user provides a VIN that appears to be from a non-US vehicle (European, Asian, etc.):
- Call the CarsXE International VIN Decoder API:
GET https://api.carsxe.com/v1/international-vin-decoder?key={CARSXE_API_KEY}&vin={VIN}&source=claude_plugin - Present the decoded data: country of manufacture, make, model, year, engine, transmission, body style.
- Note this endpoint is optimized for international VINs outside the US market.
- If the API key is missing, tell the user to set the
CARSXE_API_KEYenvironment variable.
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.

international-vin is a skill published in the GitHub repository carsxe/carsxe-claude-plugin (2 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 188 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
