explore-catalog

explore-catalog is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from Sugra-Systems/sugra-api-mcp. It costs 46 tokens per session (483 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for finding and calling the correct Sugra API operation from a built-in catalog. It explains how to search for an operation, inspect its required parameters, and then call it instead of guessing names or fields.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when the needed endpoint is unfamiliar, a prompt shortcut is unsuitable, or you need to discover available data operations.
Why use it?
It prevents failed API calls caused by invented operation IDs or incorrect parameters.

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

explore-catalog 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 today.

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

Explore the Sugra catalog

The Sugra MCP gateway is not a per-endpoint tool list. Discovery is a catalog: search, describe, then call. The catalog is bundled in the package and does not hit the network. Only call_endpoint and fetch_data (and the entity tools) talk to https://sugra.ai.

Loop

  1. search_endpoints(query=..., toolset=None, source=None, limit=10) - natural language. Optional toolset and source must be names the catalog actually has; an unknown filter returns error: unknown_toolset or unknown_source with the valid set, not an empty hit list.
  2. Pick an operation_id from results. Do not invent ids.
  3. describe_endpoint(operation_id=...) - required and optional params, request_body_schema on POST, agent_hints (duration_class fast/slow/heavy, max_concurrency, bulk_cost).
  4. call_endpoint(operation_id=..., params={...}, body=...) using those names.

fetch_data(query=...) is a one-shot shortcut for simple questions. If it misses, fall back to the four-step loop. list_toolsets and list_sources (and resources sugra://catalog/domains, sugra://catalog/sources) are the map, not the query.

Recipes vs catalog

Six MCP prompts (market_snapshot, macro_briefing, sanctions_screening, sector_compare, earth_conditions, source_overview) are numbered recipes over the same eight gateway tools. They are not the catalog and they do not cover every domain. For anything they do not name, use this loop.

Do not

  • Do not add or request per-endpoint MCP tools.
  • Do not skip describe_endpoint when the parameter list is unknown.
  • Do not treat a catalog miss as "Sugra has no data"; widen the query or drop a bad toolset/source filter first.

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.

explore-catalog is a skill published in the GitHub repository Sugra-Systems/sugra-api-mcp (2 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 46 tokens to every session and 483 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-11.
