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

app-store 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 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 167 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Apple App Store API

App Store app and bundle search, details, reviews, similar-apps, and developer catalogs across any country storefront — one plain HTTP GET per call, paid as you go. No Apple Developer Program membership, no App Store Connect access, no scraping the storefront HTML.

Base URL: https://appstore.fetcher.sh

Authentication

Two ways to pay, same data — full mechanics in the fetcher skill:

# 1. Prepaid credits (recommended — get a key at https://fetcher.sh/topup
#    or via POST /api/credits/topup, see the fetcher skill)
export FETCHER_API_KEY="bby_live_xxxxxxxxxxxx"
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
  "https://appstore.fetcher.sh/api/apps?term=meditation"

# 2. x402 pay-per-call — omit the header; a GET with no payment returns 402
#    with machine-readable payment requirements (USDC on Base, Polygon,
#    Arbitrum, Monad, or Solana). @x402/fetch signs and retries automatically.

Every response is { "status": number, "message": string, "data": ... }; the HTTP status mirrors status.

Endpoints (9 — all GET, $0.003/call)

Endpoint What it returns
/api/apps Apps matching a keyword; page and country storefront filters
/api/apps/{appId} An app's full details
/api/apps/{appId}/reviews An app's reviews
/api/apps/{appId}/similar Apps similar to a given app
/api/bundles App bundles matching a keyword
/api/bundles/{bundleId} A bundle's full details
/api/bundles/{bundleId}/reviews A bundle's reviews
/api/bundles/{bundleId}/similar Bundles similar to a given bundle
/api/developers/{developerId} A developer's full app catalog

Required on /api/apps and /api/bundles: term. Optional everywhere: country (storefront, e.g. us, jp, de), lang, page. Reviews support sort (recent, helpful).

Scenarios

US storefront search:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $FETCHER_API_KEY" \
  --data-urlencode "term=habit tracker" -G \
  --data-urlencode "country=us" \
  "https://appstore.fetcher.sh/api/apps"

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.
