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

shipping-rate-calculator 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 12d 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.

Shipping Rate Calculator

Overview

Showing real-time shipping rates at checkout — from UPS, FedEx, USPS, DHL — lets customers choose their preferred service and prevents you from under- or overcharging for shipping. Every major platform supports carrier-calculated rates natively or through apps, and a multi-carrier rate shopping tool can save you 15–40% on shipping costs by automatically selecting the cheapest option.

When to Use This Skill

  • When adding real-time carrier rate quotes to checkout
  • When building a multi-carrier shipping rate comparison feature
  • When implementing free shipping thresholds or tiered flat-rate shipping
  • When you need to calculate dimensional weight for accurate carrier pricing
  • When setting up shipping zones and rate tables for international shipping

Core Instructions

Step 1: Determine your platform and choose the right shipping rate tool

Platform Recommended Tool Why
Shopify Shopify Shipping (built-in) or Easyship / ShipStation for rate shopping Shopify Shipping gives discounted USPS, UPS, DHL rates; Easyship adds 250+ carrier options and rate shopping
WooCommerce WooCommerce Shipping (USPS/DHL) + Table Rate Shipping for custom rules WooCommerce Shipping handles basic carrier rates; Table Rate Shipping adds weight/zone-based rule tables
BigCommerce ShipperHQ or Easyship ShipperHQ is the most powerful rate management tool for BigCommerce with dimensional rate calculation
Custom / Headless EasyPost or Shippo as a carrier meta-API Both aggregate UPS, FedEx, USPS, DHL into a single API call — far simpler than integrating each carrier directly

Step 2: Set up carrier-calculated rates

Shopify

Shopify Shipping (built-in, free, recommended starting point):

  1. Go to Settings → Shipping and delivery → Manage rates
  2. Under your domestic zone, click Add rate
  3. Select Use carrier or app to calculate rates
  4. Choose from: USPS, UPS, DHL Express
  5. Check the services you want to offer (e.g., USPS Priority Mail, USPS Ground Advantage, UPS Ground, UPS 2nd Day Air)
  6. Optionally add a markup or discount percentage on top of carrier rates (useful to offset packing material costs)
  7. Save — rates will now appear dynamically at checkout based on the order's actual weight and destination
