“Find the cheapest API for any model and connect it from your AI agent: Grandet Skill and an anonymous MCP server, backed by listed prices from 1,800+ official, inference and relay providers on grandet.ai.”
Traction scoreGitHub stars can be faked, so popularity alone can be misleading. Traction Score looks for broader signs of recent attention, adoption, and active maintenance.
Find the cheapest API for any model and connect it from your AI agent: Grandet Skill and an anonymous MCP server, backed by listed prices from 1,800+ official, inference and relay providers on grandet.ai.
Compatible AgentsThe repository documents support for these agents. The skills may also work with other agents that can load SKILL.md files, but they may need some setup or small changes.
Follow the documented setup, then try a first task.
I’m using
Local agents: bundled Node installer
Installs: User-level installation of the complete Grandet API Price Finder skill for one local agent. · Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Hermes
Before you start
Node must already be installed for the Node installer route.
Access to the actual runtime user's persistent skill directory.
Platform: Use the actual agent runtime's home directory; native Windows, WSL, SSH hosts, and cloud runners have separate homes.
Run from: Extracted installation ZIP root; the SkillHub manual-copy fallback requires no working directory.
Download and extract https://github.com/hanzohanzhe/Grandet/releases/download/skill-v0.3.0-build.20261018/grandet-api-price-finder-0.3.0.zip. In mainland China, or after a GitHub download takes 30 seconds or fails once, switch to https://api.skillhub.cn/api/v1/download?slug=grandet-api-price-finder&version=0.3.0-build.20261018.0 without repeatedly retrying GitHub. Extract the SkillHub archive into a new grandet-api-price-finder folder; its files are at the archive root. A SkillHub 404 means the build is still under review; use GitHub instead. Retain the complete skill, including SKILL.md, references/, and agents/.
Before relying on either downloaded archive, independently verify it against the published content manifest and asset SHA-256. Also check file hashes against package-manifest.json when present.
Before running the receipt-aware installer, explain that installation statistics contain random IDs, operation, version, content hash, source/host/scope categories, verification, and time, retained for 24 months. No path, username, account, chat, or key is sent. The documented opt-outs are --no-telemetry or GRANDET_INSTALL_TELEMETRY=0; offline installation also works.
For the GitHub installation ZIP route, run this command in a terminal from the extracted ZIP root. Replace <installer-id> with codex, claude-code, cursor, or hermes for the current app only. The respective skill directories are ~/.agents/skills/, ~/.claude/skills/, ~/.cursor/skills/, and $HERMES_HOME/skills/ when HERMES_HOME is set, otherwise ~/.hermes/skills/. For the SkillHub fallback, skip this ZIP-specific command and use the manual-copy step below.
For the SkillHub fallback, copy the entire extracted grandet-api-price-finder folder into the current app's skill directory listed above. Keep an identical existing copy; move a differing copy outside every skills folder as a backup before replacing it. Keep exactly one active copy, do not follow symlinks outside the skill, and leave other skills, model settings, and provider keys untouched. Manual copying retains a receipt coverage gap.
Read back the installed SKILL.md, confirm references/ and agents/ are complete, and check that Installation build names grandet-skill-0.3.0-build.20261018. Check anonymous access to https://grandet.ai/public-data/price-finder.json through Grandet MCP or a plain HTTP GET. Restart the app or open a clean new conversation without attaching files to check persistence; report any check that could not be performed as untested.
Installs: User-level installation of the complete Grandet API Price Finder skill for one local agent. · Codex, Claude Code, Cursor
Before you start
Ability to download, verify, extract, and copy the complete skill folder into the app's persistent skill directory.
Platform: Use the actual runtime user's home directory. On Windows, ~ means C:\Users\<your name>.
Download and extract https://github.com/hanzohanzhe/Grandet/releases/download/skill-v0.3.0-build.20261018/grandet-api-price-finder-0.3.0.zip. In mainland China, or after GitHub takes 30 seconds or fails once, switch to https://api.skillhub.cn/api/v1/download?slug=grandet-api-price-finder&version=0.3.0-build.20261018.0 without repeatedly retrying GitHub. Extract the SkillHub archive into a new grandet-api-price-finder folder; that folder is the complete skill. A SkillHub 404 means the build is still under review; use GitHub instead.
Before relying on either downloaded archive, independently verify it against the published content manifest and asset SHA-256. Also check file hashes against package-manifest.json when present. Keep the complete skill folder, including SKILL.md, references/, and agents/; SKILL.md alone is insufficient.
Check for an existing grandet-api-price-finder installation. Keep an identical copy; move a differing copy outside every skills folder as a backup. Copy the complete skills/grandet-api-price-finder folder from the GitHub ZIP, or the complete grandet-api-price-finder folder extracted from SkillHub, into ~/.agents/skills/ for Codex, ~/.claude/skills/ for Claude Code, or ~/.cursor/skills/ for Cursor. Keep exactly one active copy, avoid following symlinks outside the folder, and leave other skills and settings untouched. On Windows, replace <your name> in the home-directory notation with your Windows username.
Read back the installed SKILL.md, confirm references/ and agents/ are complete, and check that Installation build names grandet-skill-0.3.0-build.20261018. Check anonymous access to https://grandet.ai/public-data/price-finder.json through Grandet MCP or plain HTTP GET. Restart the app or open a new conversation; confirm the skill persists without attaching its files again. Report unavailable checks as untested.
Installs: Save and enable the complete Grandet API Price Finder skill in the selected app's Skills manager. · ChatGPT, Claude on the web
Before you start
Access to the app's Skills manager and permission to upload and enable a skill.
Ability to verify the downloaded archive against the published content manifest and asset SHA-256.
Platform: Web or account-based app
Download https://github.com/hanzohanzhe/Grandet/releases/download/skill-v0.3.0-build.20261018/grandet-api-price-finder-0.3.0.skill. In mainland China, or after GitHub takes 30 seconds or fails once, switch to https://api.skillhub.cn/api/v1/download?slug=grandet-api-price-finder&version=0.3.0-build.20261018.0 without repeatedly retrying GitHub. Extract the SkillHub archive into a new grandet-api-price-finder folder. A SkillHub 404 means the build is still under review; use GitHub instead.
Before relying on either downloaded archive, independently verify it against the published content manifest and asset SHA-256. Also check package-manifest.json file hashes when present. For GitHub, upload the native .skill archive; rename a copy to .zip if the app accepts only ZIP. For SkillHub, zip the extracted grandet-api-price-finder folder and upload that. Do not upload the larger installation ZIP.
In ChatGPT, open https://chatgpt.com/skills → Add skill → Upload from computer. In Claude on the web, use Customize → Skills → + → Create skill → Upload a skill. Upload and enable the skill. Update an existing saved Grandet skill in place rather than creating a second copy; a chat attachment alone does not install it.
Where saved-file readback is available, confirm the installed SKILL.md build is grandet-skill-0.3.0-build.20261018 and references/ and agents/ are complete. Match any separate description field to the current SKILL.md frontmatter. Check anonymous access to https://grandet.ai/public-data/price-finder.json through Grandet MCP or plain HTTP GET. Open a clean new conversation without attaching files to check persistence. Uploading does not automatically execute the verifier; report unavailable saved-file readback or host verification as unverified.
Claude Sonnet 4.6 is the example model; replace it with your desired model if needed.
Access to Grandet MCP tools or an HTTP-capable runtime; price lookups require no account or API key.
