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 | $0.00147 | $0.00147 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00059 | $0.00059 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00029 | $0.00029 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00015 | $0.00015 |
Grade A, and why
BaseMcpServer 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.
What it actually says
Repository instructions
Dependency maintenance
Keep the stable MCP v2 policy mcp>=2.2.0,<3.0.0. Refresh all six project locks
with uv lock --upgrade, check complete graphs with uv tree --locked --outdated,
and explain any upstream-constrained exceptions. Include development dependencies
and check the release tag of the Git-sourced Loadbearing YouTube dependency.
Preserve factory construction and explicit public add_tool/add_resource
registration. Use servers/template as the canonical scaffold. Validate package
tests, generated-project E2E, builds, and real stdio discovery. Distinguish checkout
verification from installation into MCP Manager's managed environments.
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.
