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

spy-tlt-course 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.

spy-tlt-course

Agent guidance for the course edition of the SPY/TLT strategy MCP server. The student installs and registers it via the course-setup skill; this skill explains how to use it once it's live.

Server fingerprint

  • Server name (in Zo MCP registry): spy-tlt-course
  • Tool count: 14 (course subset of the 37-tool production server)
  • Source: professional/servers/spy-tlt-course/
  • Entry point: uv run spy-tlt-server
  • Data: SPY + TLT daily prices via yfinance, cached locally

If the tool count isn't 14 or the server isn't registered, route the student back to the course-setup skill.

When to invoke

The student is asking a question that requires a market-regime tool call — not narrative analysis. Examples:

  • "What's today's signal?"
  • "Are we in a Green day or Orange day?"
  • "What's SPY doing right now?"
  • "Is the strategy data fresh?"
  • "Explain the current signal."

Do not invoke for: portfolio construction advice, trade execution, options strategy, or anything outside the SPY/TLT color-day framework. The course server is intentionally minimal.

The 6-step workhorse pattern

Every SPY/TLT question follows this pattern. Memorize it:

  1. get_strategy_guide — call ONCE per session, first thing. Tells you what this strategy actually does.
  2. refresh_data — call before any market-data query. Pulls latest SPY + TLT prices.
  3. get_current_signal — returns today's color (Green / Orange / Blue / Red) + exposure target + stale_data_warning. Quote every field verbatim.
  4. explain_signal — call with the signal name from step 3. Returns the strategy's own explanation, not your interpretation.
  5. get_market_context — SPY/QQQ/IWM/DIA/RSP extension and breadth. Use when the student asks "is the market healthy?" or for cross-index context.
  6. Cite the tool call when you answer. Format: (via spy-tlt-course / get_current_signal).

Critical rules

  • Quote tool output verbatim before interpreting. Phantom prices — numbers from training memory dressed up as "the latest" — are the failure mode this course is designed to break. If you can't name the tool call you got a number from, don't say the number.
  • Pass through stale_data_warning even when null. The student needs to see that field to learn the discipline.
  • Color days are exclusive — pick one, no hedging. "It's a Green day" not "it's Green-leaning."
  • Refresh before reading. If the cached prices are >1 trading day old, get_current_signal may report a stale regime. refresh_data first, then get_current_signal.

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.
