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 | $0.02287 | $0.02287 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00915 | $0.00915 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00457 | $0.00457 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00229 | $0.00229 |
Grade A, and why
consult-user-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 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 — 160 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Consult User MCP
An MCP server that gives an agent a way to actually ask the user something — native dialogs on macOS and Windows, returning structured JSON. The agent blocks until the user answers, snoozes, or cancels.
Architecture map
One MCP server, two platform implementations behind a single DialogProvider interface.
| Folder | What it is |
|---|---|
mcp-server/ |
The MCP server. Tool surface, response compaction, provider selection. TypeScript, Bun. |
dialog-cli/ |
macOS Dialog CLI. Ephemeral — spawned per dialog, prints JSON, exits. Swift/SwiftUI. |
macos-app/ |
macOS Tray App. Persistent. Owns settings, history, updates, install, debug menu. |
dialog-cli-windows/ |
Windows Dialog CLI. Mirrors dialog-cli/. .NET/WPF. |
windows-app/ |
Windows Tray App. Mirrors macos-app/. .NET/WPF. |
sketch-cli/ |
Grid layout editor behind propose_layout. Separate Swift CLI, macOS only. |
test-cases/ |
JSON fixtures + screenshot runner. Feeds both the test runner and the debug menu. |
container/ |
Headless macOS VM the suites run inside, so they stop taking your screen. |
docs/ |
SvelteKit docs site. Owns releases.json, the release source of truth. |
scripts/ |
Build, install, release, and validation shell scripts. |
The two processes on each platform talk through files, not IPC: the Tray App writes settings.json and snooze state, the Dialog CLI reads them on launch.
Context boundaries
Read the folder's CLAUDE.md before editing inside it. Each one carries invariants that are expensive to rediscover:
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.
