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

selat-discovery scanned grade A 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 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 301 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

SELAT — discover, then pay (self-custody)

This is a concise DRIVER written for the plugin. The published @selat-ai/selat-discovery SKILL.md (bundled inside @selat-ai/selat-cli) remains the source of truth for exact subcommand flags, output shapes, and any commands added after the pinned CLI version. Where they conflict, the published skill wins. The command surface below was verified against @selat-ai/[email protected] and @selat-ai/[email protected].

SELAT is a capability layer for AI agents. It does two things a flat capability index doesn't: it checks vetted skills first, and it pays from the user's own wallet — SELAT never sees a private key or holds the user's funds.

The runner: how to invoke selat

All SELAT actions go through the selat runner (the published @selat-ai/selat-cli, which bundles the discovery skill and the selat-pay engine). Resolve it in this order:

  1. Plain selat — the SessionStart hook puts it on PATH (immediately on hosts that persist hook env; in new shells elsewhere).
  2. If bare selat doesn't resolve, use the $SELAT_RUNNER env var (an absolute path to the shim), where the host exports it.
  3. If neither resolves, SELAT isn't available in this environment — tell the user rather than improvising. Do not hand-roll x402 requests or paste private keys.

Run only selat. @selat-ai/selat-pay (the pay engine) and @selat-ai/selat-discovery (the ranker and its rank.mjs scripts) are dependencies inside selat, never commands you run: the plugin runtime does not put them on PATH, and selat-pay's own flags (--chain) bypass the runner's chain resolution. Discovery goes through selat search, every spend through selat run or selat skill run. If any output shows a selat-pay … or rank.mjs … command (a --dry-run plan, a hint, an error), treat it as a description of what selat will do, never as something to execute.

Verify with selat doctor (read-only diagnostics: skill, PATH, Circle auth, Agent Wallet, config).
