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

siyuan-sisyphus-browse-read 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 12d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

92% identical to siyuan-mcp-browse-read — 46 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 65 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Browse and Read SiYuan with the CLI

Start with fs and human-readable paths. Drop to document or block actions only when IDs, storage paths, metadata, or block structure are required.

Discovery workflow

siyuan-sisyphus notebook list --json
siyuan-sisyphus fs ls --path '/' --json
siyuan-sisyphus fs tree --path '/Notebook/Folder' --max-depth '4' --json
siyuan-sisyphus fs read --path '/Notebook/Folder/Doc' --block-start '0' --block-limit '50' --token-budget '2000' --json

Use search-assisted discovery when the path is unknown:

siyuan-sisyphus fs search --path '/Notebook' --query 'keyword' --page '1' --page-size '20' --json
siyuan-sisyphus search fulltext --query 'keyword' --page '1' --page-size '20' --json

Low-level reads

siyuan-sisyphus document lookup --id '<doc-id>' --include-json '["path","hpath","notebook"]' --json
siyuan-sisyphus document get-doc --id '<doc-id>' --mode 'markdown' --json
siyuan-sisyphus block get-kramdown --id '<block-id>' --json

If the Markdown contains an assets/... image and the task depends on its visual content, a vision-capable client should read one relevant image directly:

siyuan-sisyphus file read-image --id '<doc-id>' --path 'assets/question.png' --json

Provide either the document ID or its human-readable documentPath, never both. The server authorizes that document and verifies its direct image reference before returning an image content block. MCP clients receive the image directly; CLI default output shows metadata, while explicit --json retains the non-text block for scripts. Do not inline every image during ordinary document reads. Stored OCR is only a fallback when direct vision is unavailable.

Path semantics

Value Example Typical use
Workspace path /Notebook/Folder/Doc fs actions
Notebook-local hpath /Folder/Doc document create or lookup with notebook
Storage path /20260712123000-abc123.sy low-level rename, remove, or move

Changes

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.
