Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

openai-image-mcp CLAUDE.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 5d 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.

Core Architecture

Session-Based Conversational Design

The system is built around multi-turn conversations with persistent memory, not traditional stateless API calls. Key architectural patterns:

  • Session Manager: Thread-safe session lifecycle with O(1) UUID lookup
  • Conversation Builder: Automatic context trimming at 50 turns, preserves image references
  • Responses API Client: Uses OpenAI Responses API (requires openai>=1.82.0) with exponential backoff retry logic
  • File Organizer: Structured storage with comprehensive metadata preservation

Component Interaction Flow

  1. MCP Tool Callserver.py (13 available tools)
  2. Session Creationsession_manager.py (UUID-based, thread-safe)
  3. Context Buildingconversation_builder.py (multi-turn history)
  4. API Callresponses_client.py (OpenAI Responses API with tools)
  5. Image Processingimage_processor.py (download, save, metadata)
  6. File Organizationfile_organizer.py (structured directories, metadata JSON)

MCP Tools Organization

Session Management (5 tools): create_image_session, generate_image_in_session, get_session_status, list_active_sessions, close_session

Image Generation (5 tools): generate_image, edit_image, generate_product_image, generate_ui_asset, analyze_and_improve_image

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.
