llm-provider-knowledge

llm-provider-knowledge is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from event4u-app/agent-config. It costs 49 tokens per session (1,862 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A reference workflow for checking current facts about AI model providers against their official documentation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Verifying provider capabilities, SDK settings, model identifiers, context limits, pricing, and usage rules.
Why use it?
It prevents code and explanations from relying on outdated model names, prices, limits, or API details.

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

llm-provider-knowledge 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 149 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

llm-provider-knowledge

Verify LLM-provider product facts against official documentation, never memory. This skill is the multi-provider sibling of Claude Code's bundled product-self-knowledge — extended to OpenAI, Google Gemini, Anthropic, Mistral, xAI, DeepSeek, Cohere, and Meta Llama, and portable to every host this package projects to (not just Claude Code).

This skill is a signpost, not a library. It routes you to the authoritative source and forces a source-cited answer. It does not cache model IDs, context windows, prices, or rate limits — those churn constantly, and a cached copy is exactly the stale "from memory" answer this skill exists to prevent.

When to use

  • Your reply would state a specific fact about a provider's product: a model ID or its context window, token pricing, a rate/quota limit, an SDK/API detail (endpoint, parameter, auth, batch, streaming, function-calling shape), or a consumer-app plan limit (ChatGPT/Gemini/Claude app tiers).
  • Coding against a provider SDK where a wrong model name, parameter, or limit would break at runtime.
  • Content or comparisons that assert provider capabilities or pricing.
  • Any time you would otherwise answer such a fact from training data — it may be outdated or wrong.

When NOT to fire

  • Ordinary SDK code that asserts no product fact (wiring a call whose model and params the user already gave).
  • The user already supplied the verified fact — use it; don't re-litigate.
  • Writing provider-specific prompt grammar → prompt-engineering-patterns.
  • Choosing which model to use for the host → model-recommendation (never recommend another vendor's model over the host's; this skill only reports facts, it does not steer model choice).
  • Image-provider selection → image-provider-routing.

Core principles

  1. Accuracy over guessing — if unsure, route to the docs; never assert.
  2. Distinguish products — a provider's API, its developer platform, and its consumer app are separate surfaces with separate facts and separate docs.
  3. Source everything — every product fact in the reply carries an official URL. No URL → not verified → don't state it as fact.
  4. Route, don't cache — hand off to the live docs; do not transcribe volatile specs into the reply as if durable.

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.

llm-provider-knowledge is a skill published in the GitHub repository event4u-app/agent-config (10 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 49 tokens to every session and 1,862 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.
