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 B, and why

setup-assistant scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.

Setup Assistant Skill

Expert system for installing, configuring, and setting up the Claude Patent Creator MCP server.

When to Use

Installing first time, setting up new environment, configuring authentication, troubleshooting installation, migrating to new machine, updating dependencies, verifying health.

Quick Setup (5 Minutes)

# 1. Create virtual environment
python -m venv venv
venv\Scripts\activate  # Windows
source venv/bin/activate  # Linux/macOS

# 2. Run installer
python install.py

# 3. Restart Claude Code

# 4. Test
# Ask Claude: "Search MPEP for claim definiteness"

Complete Setup Lifecycle

Phase 1: Pre-Installation Checks

Requirements:

  • Python 3.9-3.12 (3.11 recommended)
  • 8GB+ RAM (16GB recommended)
  • 5GB free disk
  • Optional: NVIDIA GPU with CUDA 12.x

Verify:

python --version  # Should show 3.9-3.12
nvidia-smi        # Optional: Check GPU

Phase 2: Virtual Environment

# Create venv
python -m venv venv

# Activate
venv\Scripts\activate  # Windows
source venv/bin/activate  # Linux/macOS

# Verify
which python  # Should show venv path

Important: Always activate venv before running scripts!

Phase 3: Dependency Installation

Automated (Recommended):

python install.py
# Handles: PyTorch order, GPU detection, MCP registration

Manual (Advanced):

# Install PyTorch FIRST (critical!)
pip install torch torchvision --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu128

# Then install package (includes all dependencies)
pip install -e .

Why PyTorch order matters: If installed after sentence-transformers, you get CPU-only version.

Phase 4: BigQuery Authentication (Optional)

BigQuery adds 100M+ patent search but is NOT required. MPEP search, claims review, EPO analysis, and all other features work without it.

The setup auto-detects existing gcloud credentials. If already authenticated, BigQuery works automatically.

If the user wants to enable BigQuery later:

# One command — opens browser for Google sign-in (free, no credit card)
! gcloud auth application-default login

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
