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 | $0.16931 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00034 | $0.06772 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00017 | $0.03386 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00009 | $0.01693 |
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 8d 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 — 21 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 — 1,144 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 | Imports every definition file, prints errors + warnings, exits non-zero on errors. A file that fails to import is an error (definition-import-failed), never a skip. |
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Pre-commit workflow | Wraps lint:mcp alongside typecheck, format, bun audit, bun outdated.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), plus two load errors the CLI raises itself, because validateDefinitions() only receives what already loaded: definition-import-failed and server-json-parse. Each diagnostic has a stable rule ID — that's the anchor you land on via the See: framework-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/openfda-mcp-server (4 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 86 tokens to every session and 16,931 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 100% identical to api-linter, differing in 21 lines, and is treated as a copy.

opik-diagnose
Surface the Opik traces worth a developer's attention, ranked by signal — Diagnostics issues first, then errors, failed tool calls, latency, regressions, and low online-eval scores. With the Opik MCP connected it lists the project's agentinsightsissue entities, offers to turn Diagnostics on when the project has it…
opik-test
Turn a failing Opik trace (or a described failure) into a repeatable regression check — a test-suite item with the trace's input and one or two binary assertions — so a fix can be verified by the compare skill. Works over the SDK; uses the MCP write tool when connected. Returns the suite, the item, and the assertion.…

Explore the memory system's state, find gaps in knowledge, assess coverage, and get diagnostic information.

quantum-fermi-hubbard-vqe
