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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00793 | $0.00793 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00317 | $0.00317 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00159 | $0.00159 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00079 | $0.00079 |
Grade A, and why
touchdesigner-mcp AGENTS.md scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 1mo 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.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 35 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Repository Guidelines
Project Structure & Module Organization
src/ contains the TypeScript MCP server: shared logic is in core/, MCP features in features/, transport code in transport/, and TouchDesigner communication in tdClient/. The OpenAPI contract starts at src/api/index.yml. TouchDesigner-side Python, templates, generated artifacts, and .tox components live in td/. Tests belong in tests/unit/ or tests/integration/ for the TypeScript side and tests/python/ for TouchDesigner-side Python, documentation in docs/, and media in assets/. Treat dist/, src/gen/, and td/modules/td_server/ as generated output; edit their source schemas or templates instead.
Build, Test, and Development Commands
npm installinstalls Node dependencies.npm run buildregenerates code, compiles TypeScript, and copies runtime templates.make buildperforms the Docker-based TouchDesigner module build.npm run devopens the MCP Inspector against the built stdio server.npm run httpstarts HTTP mode on127.0.0.1:6280, targeting TouchDesigner on9981.npm testruns every suite, includingtest:python;npm run test:unitandnpm run test:integrationscope to Vitest.npm run test:pythonruns the TouchDesigner-side Python suite against a stubbedtdmodule. It needs Python 3.9+ with pytest, oruv; without either it reports and skips, while CI always runs it.npm run ci:test:integrationis the subset oftests/integration/that needs no live TouchDesigner. It sits outside thetest:namespace deliberately, sonpm testdoes not run it twice.npm run coveragewrites V8 reports;npm run lintruns all static checks.npm run genrefreshes OpenAPI, Python handler, and TypeScript client output.
Coding Style & Naming Conventions
Use ESM TypeScript, tabs, and double quotes; let Biome organize imports. Use camelCase for files and functions, PascalCase for types, and generally kebab-case for directories. Python targets 3.9, which is the floor older TouchDesigner builds ship — PEP 604 unions (X | None) break import there, so use Optional[X]. Ruff enforces tabs, double quotes, and an 88-character line length over td/ and tests/python/; npm run lint checks formatting as well as lint rules. Run npm run format for automatic fixes. Keep changes focused.
What this file has done since we first saw it
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.
