The attachment GET operation is rated a "Medium", but all I want to do is get the metadata for everything I've already cached without disturbing my rate limits. What's the best way to get cache message types?

What metadata you are looking for. Reading the message store you will get a list of messages with the attachments object in each message. The attachments contains metadata about the attachments. Isn't that what you want to get?
