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

search-docs 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 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.

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.

Search Docs

Search the Meta Social Technologies Developer Platform documentation to answer API questions, find integration guides, and explore platform capabilities.

Workflow

  1. Start tracking. Before any other work, call devtools_skill_invocation with action start and skill_name search-docs. Pass skill_name search-docs on every devtools_* tool call in the following steps.

  2. Understand the query. Determine what the user is looking for:

    • API reference (e.g., "how does the Page API work?")
    • Integration guide (e.g., "how to set up Instagram webhooks?")
    • Troubleshooting (e.g., "why am I getting error code 190?")
    • Feature discovery (e.g., "what can I do with the WhatsApp Business API?")
  3. Search. Call devtools_discovery with action search_docs:

    • Formulate a clear, specific query
    • Start with max_results of 5
    • If results are too broad, refine the query and search again
  4. Present results. For each result:

    • Title and brief description
    • Direct relevance to the user's question
    • Key takeaways or next steps
  5. Refine if needed. If initial results don't answer the question:

    • Try alternative search terms (e.g., "Graph API permissions" instead of "Facebook API access")
    • Use pagination via offset to explore more results
    • Broaden or narrow the query based on what was returned
  6. Synthesize. Don't just list links — extract the answer:

    • Summarize the relevant documentation
    • Highlight key requirements, limitations, or gotchas
    • Provide code patterns or configuration steps if applicable
  7. End tracking. After completing all preceding steps, call devtools_skill_invocation with action end and skill_name search-docs.

Search Tips

  • Use product-specific terms: "WhatsApp Business API" not "WhatsApp API"
  • Include the specific operation: "create ad campaign" not "ads"
  • For error codes, search the exact code: "error 190" or "OAuthException"
  • For permissions, include the permission name: "pages_read_engagement permission"

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.
