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

vehicle-recalls 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 recalls

Use the CarsXE MCP tool get_vehicle_recalls. Auth is client-managed (API key or OAuth); do not embed secrets in plugin config.

Tool

  • Name: get_vehicle_recalls
  • Required: vin — 17-character Vehicle Identification Number

When to use

  • Open or historical safety recalls for a VIN
  • Pre-purchase or service-shop recall checks

Notes

  • VIN must be exactly 17 characters.
  • Pair with get_vehicle_history or get_vehicle_specs when the user wants a fuller picture.
Changes

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.
