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 | $0.00086 | $0.12808 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00043 | $0.06404 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00017 | $0.02562 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.01281 |
Grade A, and why
api-linter 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.
This is a copy
100% identical to api-linter — 4 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 984 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Overview
The linter validates tool, resource, and prompt definitions against the MCP spec and framework conventions. It is build-time only — not invoked at server startup. It runs in two places:
| Entry point | When | On failure |
|---|---|---|
bun run lint:mcp |
Manual or CI | Prints errors + warnings, exits non-zero on errors. |
bun run devcheck |
Pre-commit workflow | Wraps lint:mcp alongside typecheck, format, bun audit, bun outdated. |
Both surface the same LintReport from validateDefinitions() (exported from @cyanheads/mcp-ts-core/linter). Each diagnostic has a stable rule ID — that's the anchor you land on via the See: skills/api-linter/SKILL.md#<rule> breadcrumb appended to every message.
Severity:
- error — MUST-level spec violation; blocks
devcheck. - warning — SHOULD-level or quality issue; logged but
devcheckcontinues.
Imports (if you need to run the linter programmatically):
import { validateDefinitions } from '@cyanheads/mcp-ts-core/linter';
import type { LintReport, LintDiagnostic } from '@cyanheads/mcp-ts-core/linter';
const report = validateDefinitions({ tools, resources, prompts, serverJson, packageJson });
if (!report.passed) process.exit(1);

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.

api-linter is a skill published in the GitHub repository cyanheads/chembl-mcp-server (1 stars, last pushed 15d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 86 tokens to every session and 12,808 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to api-linter, differing in 4 lines, and is treated as a copy.
