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 | $0.00624 | $0.00624 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00250 | $0.00250 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00125 | $0.00125 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00062 | $0.00062 |
Grade A, and why
dpc-mcp-server 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 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 — 63 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Copilot instructions
This repository follows the DPC (Dans Plugins Community) conventions defined at https://github.com/Dans-Plugins/dpc-conventions.
What this is
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that serves the DPC Zettelkasten — a knowledge base about the DPC Minecraft plugins where every claim cites a file in a Dans-Plugins repository, pinned at a commit SHA.
Node 18+, CommonJS, no build step.
Two hard rules
No runtime dependencies. MCP's stdio transport is implemented directly in
src/protocol.js (JSON-RPC 2.0, newline-delimited). Do not add a runtime
dependency, including the official SDK — it is a dev dependency used by the
tests to drive this server as a real client would.
The GraphQL schema is not maintained here. vendor/zk-graphql.js and
vendor/dataset.json are generated copies from the zettelkasten, refreshed by
npm run sync. Schema changes belong in that repository's lib/zk-graphql.js.
Editing vendor/ directly is reverted by the next sync.
Layout
src/protocol.js— the transport. Change with care; the live-client tests are what prove it still works.src/tools.js— tools, their descriptions, and their handlers.src/server.js— data loading, resources, wiring.tools/sync.js— refreshesvendor/, and refuses a snapshot whose engine and data disagree.test/run.js— data, raw-protocol, and live-client layers.
Conventions that matter here
stdout is the protocol. Every human-facing message goes to stderr. A single
stray line on stdout desynchronises the client. Never console.log in src/.
Tool descriptions say when to use the tool, not just what it does. They are the only documentation the model receives.
Tool failures return text(message, true), not a thrown exception, so the
model sees isError and can recover. Throw only for malformed calls.
Nothing is written and nothing is fetched at request time. The graph is read
once at startup. The server has no write path of its own; keep it that way. The
one exception is the vendored trace client creating its installation-ID file
(<user data dir>/dpc-mcp-server/trace-install-id) once at startup, and only
when usage reporting is on.
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.
