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

managing-google-sheets 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 10d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 149 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Managing Google Sheets

Boundaries (read before working around a missing capability)

  • Never read or copy credentials (~/.config/sheetcraft-mcp/*, token stores, service-account keys) and never hand-roll Google API calls in scripts. Everything the API can do is exposed as a tool; if a parameter seems missing, your tool list may be stale.
  • Tool list is per-session. If a parameter you remember as missing suddenly matters, re-check the tool's current schema (help <op> / tools/list) instead of assuming the old behavior — the server may have been updated.
  • Never print credentials into chat output. Don't cat, env | grep, or otherwise display API keys, client secrets, or token files — secrets in the transcript are compromised secrets and must be rotated. If a task needs a credential check, verify existence (ls) and say so, never the contents.
  • Bypassing the MCP to call Google APIs directly (scripts using stored tokens) is out of bounds even when it seems faster. If a tool genuinely can't do something, say so instead of working around it. via the sheets CLI

The sheets CLI (from the sheetcraft-mcp npm package) is the terminal surface for a Google Sheets toolset. One install provides both this CLI and an MCP server (sheets-mcp); they share auth and behavior. Prefer the CLI when working from a terminal/agent context.

Zero prerequisites before ANY command

Auth must exist before the first API call. Check once:

sheets auth status
# not logged in? one-time setup:
#   1. OAuth client (Desktop app) JSON → ~/.config/sheetcraft-mcp/oauth-client.json
#   2. sheets auth login        # opens browser, consent, done

If a command fails with Missing credentials, run sheets auth login — never try to construct tokens yourself.

Command shape (memorize this)

sheets <op> key=value key2=value2 [--json] [--stdin-json]
sheets list            # all ops by toolset — run this when unsure what exists
sheets help <op>       # full JSON schema of one op — run this before first use of an op

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.
