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

agentic_workflow 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 7d 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.

Agentic Workflow

Description: Chain multiple CalibreMCP tools in one flow for discovery, search, and action. Supports FastMCP 3.1 sampling for autonomous multi-step ebook processing, batch operations, and import pipelines.

Trigger Phrases

  • "Automate [task] across my library"
  • "Batch process all new books"
  • "Set up an import pipeline for [folder]"
  • "Find and fix [issue] in my library"
  • "Process my Calibre library automatically"

Tools

  • manage_libraries(operation="list") — List available Calibre libraries.
  • manage_libraries(operation="switch", library_name="...") — Switch active library context.
  • query_books(search="...", tags=[...], authors=[...], sort="...", unread=True/False) — Structured book queries.
  • calibre_metadata_search(query="...", top_k=10) — Semantic metadata search.
  • search_fulltext(query="...") — Full-text content search.
  • manage_viewer(operation="open", book_id=...) — Open book in Calibre viewer.
  • manage_metadata(operation="show"/"update", book_id=...) — Read or modify book metadata.
  • manage_tags(operation="add"/"remove", book_id=..., tags=[...]) — Tag management.
  • manage_analysis(operation="duplicates"/"health"/"reading_stats") — Library analysis tools.

Workflow

  1. Discover: manage_libraries(operation="list") to identify the active library. Switch via manage_libraries(operation="switch", library_name="...") if multi-library setup.
  2. Search: Combine query_books with calibre_metadata_search or search_fulltext depending on intent. Use conversational returns (each tool returns success, message, data dict) to decide next step.
  3. Analyze: Run manage_analysis() to detect duplicates, health issues, or reading patterns before taking action.
  4. Act: Apply changes via manage_metadata, manage_tags, or bulk operations. For books to read, chain manage_viewer(operation="open") as final step.
  5. Verify: Optionally re-run analysis to confirm changes took effect.

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.
