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

rod-mcp copilot-instructions.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 4d 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.

Copilot Instructions for rod-mcp

rod-mcp is a Go MCP server that wraps go-rod browser automation and exposes browser control tools over stdio. Keep suggestions focused on the public repository and avoid private paths, hostnames, credentials, incidents, support queues, or agent orchestration process details.

Repository Context

  • Go module: github.com/aliwatters/rod-mcp.
  • Runtime: follow go.mod for the supported Go version and dependency set.
  • MCP framework: github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go.
  • Browser automation: github.com/go-rod/rod controlling Chrome or Chromium.
  • Main entry points are main.go, cmd.go, server.go, and runner.go.
  • Tool implementations live in tools/; shared browser context, config, snapshots, profiles, and embedded JavaScript live in types/.

Build and Verification

Use the same commands CI relies on when relevant:

go build -o rod-mcp
go vet ./...
go test ./...
go test -tags e2e -v -timeout 300s ./e2e/

The e2e tests launch a real browser and may need Chrome or Chromium plus system libraries. For docs-only changes, prefer lightweight checks such as git diff --check.

Code Guidance

  • Follow the existing Go style: standard library imports first, then external packages, then internal github.com/aliwatters/rod-mcp/... packages.
  • Keep MCP tools in the established pattern: define an mcp.Tool, then provide a handler factory that uses rodCtx.Execute.
  • Let Execute manage snapshot invalidation. Do not call InvalidateSnapshot inside tool handlers.
  • Preserve ref continuity for tools that interact with snapshot elements by using WithSnapshot: true where the next interaction needs an updated accessibility snapshot.
  • Resolve elements through the existing helper paths: refs first, CSS selectors when supported, and accessible-name matching for semantic targeting.
  • For React-aware filling, keep using the this binding pattern expected by rod's Eval; do not pass the DOM element as a JavaScript function argument.
  • Wrap errors with useful context and return MCP tool errors through existing helpers such as toolErr.
  • Prefer table-driven tests with t.Run and focused assertions for tool schema, handler behavior, snapshots, config, and utility functions.

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.
