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

agy-media-understanding 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 10d 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.

Asks the agent to reveal its instructionslowSystem prompt leakage

Directions to print, repeat or translate the system prompt extract configuration the operator did not intend to expose.

- `prompt`: `Using your native audio/video understanding, <task> the file <absolute-path>. Do NOT write a script or use whisper/ffmpeg — listen/watch the file directly. <output instructions>`

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Understanding Audio & Video with agy

Overview

Claude reads images and PDFs natively but cannot hear audio or watch video. The agy (Antigravity) CLI wraps Gemini, which is natively multimodal: point it at a media file and it actually listens/watches. This plugin exposes agy as the agy_ask MCP tool. When asked about audio or video content, call agy_ask instead of refusing or reaching for a transcription library.

When to Use

  • Transcribe speech from an audio file.
  • Describe, summarize, or answer questions about a video (scenes, on-screen text, order of events).
  • NOT for: images or PDFs (Read them natively), or converting/trimming media (use ffmpeg).

Recipe

Call agy_ask with the media file's directory in add_dir and its absolute path in the prompt:

  • prompt: Using your native audio/video understanding, <task> the file <absolute-path>. Do NOT write a script or use whisper/ffmpeg — listen/watch the file directly. <output instructions>
  • add_dir: ["<dir containing the file>"]
  • timeout_ms: 600000 ← long media takes minutes to process

If agy_ask returns "not logged in", call agy_login first, then retry.

Traps

Symptom Cause Fix
agy writes a whisper/ffprobe script instead of listening Prompt read like a coding task Say "using your native audio/video understanding" and forbid scripts
Hangs / times out File not inside the workspace Absolute path in prompt and its dir in add_dir
Answer could have been guessed from the filename agy only saw metadata Ask for a detail only the content proves (verbatim quote, color, timestamp) and retry

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.
