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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.01944	$0.01944
Opus 5.5	$0.00778	$0.00778

Security

Grade A, and why

brvm-mcp-server CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 25d 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.

CLAUDE.md — BRVM MCP Server

What this project is

An MCP server for the BRVM (Bourse Régionale des Valeurs Mobilières), the regional stock exchange of 8 West African UEMOA countries. It exposes live market data (quotes, indices, top movers, company info) to any MCP-compatible AI agent via the Model Context Protocol.

Code quality, documentation and MCP best practices matter as much as functionality.

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.
