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 | $0.00197 | $0.00197 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00079 | $0.00079 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00039 | $0.00039 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00020 |
Grade A, and why
OpenUSPublicDataMCP 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 2mo 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
AGENTS — OpenUSPublicDataMCP
First actions
- Read
CONTEXT.md,HERMES.md, and relevant ADRs. - Check the task board with
python3 scripts/tasks.py listwhen present. - Keep one source adapter or contract change per focused slice.
Build rules
- Federal-first; do not claim complete US coverage.
- Prefer official APIs and bulk data over scraping.
- Core tools must work without credentials where practical.
- Optional API keys must be documented and must not break startup.
- Every returned result includes source and retrieval metadata.
- Never log secrets or write
.envfiles to git. - Stdio MCP output belongs exclusively to the protocol.
Verification
pytest

fastmcp list src/openuspublicdata_mcp/server.py --json
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.
