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

sinch-api-verification-start 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 4d 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.

What it actually says

Start Phone Verification

Start a phone number verification using the Sinch Verification API. Supports SMS (PIN code), Flashcall (missed call), or Callout (voice TTS). Uses Application Key + Secret.

IMPORTANT: Execute this command directly. Do NOT generate script files. Perform the API call immediately.

Input

  • --to / -t: Phone number to verify (E.164) - required
  • --method / -m: Verification method: sms, flashcall, or callout - required (default sms)

Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Instructions

Execute these steps directly - do not write code or scripts:

  1. If $ARGUMENTS empty: ask for phone number and method (sms, flashcall, callout). Otherwise parse.

  2. Validate: --to (E.164), --method (sms | flashcall | callout). Normalize method to lowercase.

  3. Get VERIFICATION_APPLICATION_KEY and VERIFICATION_APPLICATION_SECRET from env (or shared Voice/Verification app credentials if documented). Verification API uses Application Key/Secret. If missing, report "Verification API is not configured. Set application key and secret for Verification app."

  4. Request body: identity { type: "number", endpoint: "+E164" }, method.

  5. POST https://verification.api.sinch.com/verification/v1/verifications with Basic Auth (application_key:application_secret), Content-Type application/json.

  6. On success: "✅ Verification started" with verification ID. Tell user to share the code with the end user (SMS) or that Flashcall/Callout was triggered. Handle 400, 401, 429 with clear messages.

  7. Handle all errors gracefully.

/sinch-api-verification-start -t +14155551234 -m callout

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.
