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 | $0.00187 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00093 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00037 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00019 |
Grade A, and why
vehicle-history 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 9d 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
Vehicle history
Use the CarsXE MCP tool get_vehicle_history. Auth is client-managed (API key or OAuth); do not embed secrets in plugin config.
Tool
- Name:
get_vehicle_history - Required:
vin— 17-character Vehicle Identification Number - Optional:
format— response format (jsonorxml, defaultjson)
When to use
- Accident, salvage, title, owner-count, or odometer questions for a VIN
- Pre-purchase history review
Notes
- VIN must be exactly 17 characters.
- Prefer leaving
formatunset unless the user asks for XML.
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.

vehicle-history is a skill published in the GitHub repository carsxe/carsxe-mcp-server (0 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 43 tokens to every session and 187 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 2026-09-04.
