token-factory

token-factory is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from nebius/nebius-physical-ai. It costs 50 tokens per session (3,438 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for using Nebius Token Factory, an OpenAI-compatible hosted service for text and vision model inference without provisioning GPUs or a cluster.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps with captioning, batch text generation, Cosmos physical-AI reasoning, model selection, and workflow tool configuration.
Why use it?
It avoids setting up compute infrastructure for supported inference tasks and explains the separate credentials and account requirements.

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

  • high Privilege Escalation · line 21
    Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
    Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.
  • medium Data Exfiltration · line 37
    Data is being sent to an external URL. This could be legitimate telemetry or data exfiltration. Manual review is recommended.
    Fix: Verify the destination URL is trusted and necessary. Remove or replace with documented APIs. Ensure no secrets, tokens, or PII are transmitted.

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

token-factory 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 3d 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.

Token Factory (zero-GPU hosted inference)

Nebius Token Factory is an OpenAI-compatible hosted-inference API for open text and vision models. It is the cheapest tier in the workbench that produces a real artifact: no cluster, no GPU, no provisioning. Reach for it before standing up anything, both for real work and to prove a toolchain end to end.

Full reference: docs/workbench/token-factory.md. Key setup only: docs/workbench/token-factory-key.md.

The credential is not a Nebius IAM token

This is the single most common failure. A Token Factory key is a separate credential minted in the separate Token Factory console (https://tokenfactory.nebius.com/). It is a long opaque token starting with v1., read from NEBIUS_TOKEN_FACTORY_KEY or ~/.npa/credentials.yaml. Your nebius CLI IAM token returns 403 here — having Nebius CLI access is not enough, and no amount of re-authenticating the CLI will help.

Keys are shown once at creation. A project with no balance returns 402/403 on inference even with a valid key.

npa workbench token-factory status    # connection settings, no network call
npa workbench token-factory verify    # live models call; non-zero on auth failure
npa workbench token-factory models    # what this key can actually reach

Run verify before a batch job and models before pinning a model name — model availability is per-key, so a model in the docs may not be in your project.

Defaults: base URL https://api.tokenfactory.nebius.com/v1/, overridable with NEBIUS_TOKEN_FACTORY_BASE_URL. Requests retry on 429 and 5xx.

August 2026 migration

The official notice retires the old public text, vision, and reasoning defaults. The replacements are Nemotron-3.5-Lightning for text and MiniMax-M3 for vision/reasoning. See docs/workbench/token-factory-deprecation-verification.md for exact IDs, live observations, API differences, vendor terms, and verification commands. MiniMax-M3 is under the MiniMax Community License; hosted API access does not establish the operator's commercial entitlement. No vendor weights are bundled.

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.
