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

mcp_quiver 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 11d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (__init__.py, server.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Quiver Quantitative — Tool Usage Guide

Critical: Reuse data from prior tool calls in the conversation. Do not re-fetch data you already have.

Tool Selection

Intent Tool
Congressional trades for a specific stock get_congress_trades
Scan all recent congressional trading activity get_congress_trades_bulk
Deep dive on a specific politician get_politician_profile
Lobbying spend for a company get_lobbying
Scan all lobbying activity get_lobbying_bulk
Government contracts for a company get_gov_contracts
Scan all government contract awards get_gov_contracts_bulk

Parameters

  • ticker: Always uppercase US ticker symbols (e.g., AAPL, MSFT, LMT, BA)
  • name: Full politician name as it appears in congressional records (e.g., "Tommy Tuberville", "Nancy Pelosi")
  • days_back: Filters trades client-side — use smaller values (90, 180) to focus on recent activity

Multi-Step Workflows

Political-Financial Intelligence on a Stock

  1. get_congress_trades — who in Congress is trading this stock?
  2. get_lobbying — how much is the company spending on lobbying?
  3. get_gov_contracts — does the company have government contracts?
  4. For each active politician found in step 1: get_politician_profile — deep dive

Politician Investigation

  1. get_politician_profile — full profile with committees, donors, trading stats
  2. For tickers in their portfolio: get_congress_trades — detailed trade history per stock

Daily Scan / Ingestion

  1. get_congress_trades_bulk — all recent congressional trades
  2. get_lobbying_bulk — all recent lobbying records
  3. get_gov_contracts_bulk — all recent contract awards
  4. Cross-reference: identify tickers that appear in multiple datasets

Influence Graph Construction

  1. get_lobbying + get_gov_contracts for a ticker — corporate influence footprint
  2. get_congress_trades for same ticker — which politicians are trading it
  3. get_politician_profile for active traders — committee assignments and donors

What ships with it

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.
