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

apps-connect 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 2mo 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.

What it actually says

Connect Apps-mcp

Set up the local Apps-mcp connection without exposing credentials.

When to load this skill

Read this skill before the first matching apps_* MCP call in each task. Once setup succeeds, switch to the skill for the user's next goal instead of treating this as an API-wide guide.

Workflow

  1. Confirm Node.js 20 or later and npx are available.
  2. Direct the user to prepare the app ID and app secret in the Apps administration screen.
  3. Run npx -y theapps-mcp configure in an interactive terminal. Enter credentials only in that prompt; never request or repeat them in chat, files, logs, or command arguments.
  4. Register the MCP server for the selected client when prompted.
  5. Tell the user to reload the MCP client if it does not detect the new server immediately.
  6. Call apps_auth_status and report only whether credentials are configured.
  7. If token errors persist, call apps_clear_token_cache and retry apps_auth_status. Use apps_help (topic=setup|tools|skill) when the next skill is unclear.

Safety

  • Treat the app ID, app secret, and access token as secrets.
  • Do not print configuration files that contain credential values.
  • Keep writes disabled unless the user needs create, update, or delete operations. Writes require APPS_MCP_ALLOW_WRITE=true; do not ask the user to paste that value in chat.
  • Apps API connects to https://api.theapps.jp; it has no separate API sandbox.

Result

Report the configured client, whether Apps-mcp is detected, whether authentication is configured, and the exact unresolved setup step when connection fails.

Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
