we know one was caused by the parasite
we know Mab and the parasite made a deal
we know Mab promised to stop messing with Harry's head in GS
what we don't know is what caused the incidents in TC

Which headache do we know was Mab's fault? Are you referring to the one at the end of SmF, after she's given his blasting rod back? Because that was caused by hearing her voice when she was angry.

In the final scene of GS, Harry says she can't screw with his head. Technically, she never acknowledges that. So its debatable whether she agreed to it or not.

I don't doubt that she may have coerced Lash (assuming that's the parasite, insert your own name if you believe otherwise) to react to a few specific things re: mind control, but I really doubt Mab's actively screwing with his head these days, agreement or not. She put a lot of work into getting Harry because he's Harry. The end of CD proves that. I think any other mortal who pulled a stunt like Harry did at the very end with her would be wishing they were dead right now. She wants Harry Dresden. Not some patchwork mental zombie version of him.
Her manipulation re: the blasting rod could have been solved by a conversation with him instead, maybe, but her reasons were totally sound.
What things does she need to hide from him these days?

I think it's a mistake to assume we know everything that Mab has and will be plotting. And Harry's threat to lay down against manipulation is only valid if he realizes what's happening. If she can twist him without his realizing it, then it may suit her purposes, and still leave her with a functioning Knight.

the one where he tries to think about the rod but can't

Sure, we think it was Mab. But it might have been co-opted to Lash.
I mean, it's not like we have evidence that the Fae can steal memories from someone with a kiss.
