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

taobao-connector 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.

What it actually says

Taobao Connector

Reads Taobao inside the operator's own Chrome over CDP. The search page is a client-side React app whose data layer is the signed mtop API — every XHR wants a sign computed from the _m_h5_tk cookie, and unsigned probes answer FAIL_SYS_TOKEN_EMPTY. There is no anonymous tier; the site's own JS signs requests natively in a real browser.

When to use

  • Search Taobao by Chinese or English text
  • One item's price, shop, sales label, description images

Tools available

  • taobao_search(query, page) — listings. Prices are in YUAN (CNY), never converted: price_cny is None when hidden — never 0.
  • taobao_card(item_id_or_url) — one item card. item ids are 9-13 digit strings; pass a bare id or an item.taobao.com URL.
  • taobao_selfcheck() — tri-state canary; renders one live search page.

Gotchas

  • Prices stay in yuan. Comparing against ruble sources needs an explicit rate; a baked-in one would go silently stale.
  • A login wall (title 登录) means the scraping profile is logged out of taobao.com — log in there, then retry.
  • The operator's Chrome must be running with CDP (scripts/start_chrome_cdp.sh).
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.
