pinion-trade

pinion-trade is a skill for Claude Code from chu2bard/pinion-os. It costs 35 tokens per session (740 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool that requests an unsigned token-swap transaction through the 1inch exchange aggregator on Base, a blockchain network. It can also return an approval transaction when the source token needs permission to be spent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare swaps between supported tokens such as USDC and ETH, including the required approval transaction when applicable.
Why use it?
It prepares the transaction without signing or submitting it for you. This separates transaction creation from wallet approval and sending.

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

pinion-trade 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 1mo 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.
