    Why it is in this group

    • The description's first verb is "send": a word for sending, and what is sent cannot be taken back.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Send a chat completion request to any supported model. Free models are served without payment; the first calls to a PAID model are also free per client (free trials), after which x402 payment (Solana USDC) is required — an unpaid call returns 402 with the exact price; retry with _meta["x402/payment"]. Responses are non-streaming. Pass either mode (auto/eco/premium) or model (explicit id) — one of the two is required; model wins if both are sent. Use this tool to generate text; inspect models and prices first with the free list_models tool. Start with a FREE model (no payment at all) and keep max_tokens >= 200 — a thinking model spends part of that budget on reasoning, so a smaller limit can return an empty answer.

  • get_price_estimateEstimate the USDC cost of a chat completion request before paying — free, no payment, no authentication required.No findings

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "get_price_estimate" says "get": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Estimate the USDC cost of a chat completion request before paying — free, no payment, no authentication required. Read-only: no state changes and no external calls; the estimate is computed locally from server pricing config, so repeated calls with identical inputs return identical results (idempotent). Use this tool to check the exact price for a given model/mode, messages, and max_tokens before calling the paid chat_completions tool. Provide either mode (auto/eco/premium routing) or model (explicit id, mutually exclusive with mode); one of the two is required — if both are sent, model wins. mode values: auto = cheapest model fitting the context, eco = cheapest available, premium = best model.

    Why it is in this group

    • The name "list_models" says "list": a word for reading.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    List available models and their prices — free, no payment, no authentication required. Read-only: no state changes; data is served from the server's local config, so repeated calls return identical results (idempotent). Accepts no parameters: the input schema is an empty object, and any arguments passed are ignored. Calling it without arguments returns the complete catalog with per-token prices; there is no filtering, pagination, or configuration. Use this tool to inspect models and prices before calling the paid chat_completions tool. Same data as GET /v1/models (§5.2). Do not use it to generate text (use chat_completions) or to estimate a specific request's cost (use get_price_estimate).

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
