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 C, and why

finding-original-cds scanned grade C with 2 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.

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.

Finding original CDs on Discogs

Overview

Pick the best original or non-remastered CD pressing of an album and add it to the wantlist, balancing how common a pressing is (haves), price, and US availability. Core insight: have/want counts live in the public Discogs release API (WebFetch https://api.discogs.com/releases/<id>, no auth) — the discogs MCP tools cannot return them — and the live price lives in a second call, /marketplace/stats/<id>. That's the step that gets re-derived every session; don't.

Default target is a US CD unless the user says otherwise.

When to use

  • "Find an original / non-remastered CD of [album]" · "add the original pressing to my wantlist"
  • "Which [album] CD should I get / buy?" · comparing pressings · avoiding remaster/deluxe/anniversary editions

Not for: vinyl-specific hunts (same method, swap the format filter), buying/checkout, or non-Discogs catalogs.

Tool reality — what returns what

Need Tool Returns Missing
List pressings search_discogs(type="release") format, label, year, ID country, have/want
Pressing details get_release(<id>) (MCP) country, catalog #, format, tracklist have/want, price
Have/want + stock WebFetch https://api.discogs.com/releases/<id> community.have/want, num_for_sale, country, year, catalog a trustworthy price — see below
The price you quote curl "https://api.discogs.com/marketplace/stats/<id>?curr_abbr=USD" live {num_for_sale, lowest_price, blocked_from_sale} — (the only current figure)
Which master is on the disc same call → identifiers[] (type == "Matrix / Runout") + notes matrix runout, SID codes, pressing-plant IDs, manufacturing-window notes — (the only hard evidence; see matrix section)
Cover/case photos curl api.discogs.com/releases/<id>images[].uri, then download + Read public image URLs (no auth), then view the JPEGs discogs.com website blocks WebFetch (403); the API doesn't
Add add_to_wantlist(release_id) confirmation takes release_id only

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.
