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 | $0.01022 | $0.01022 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00409 | $0.00409 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00204 | $0.00204 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00102 | $0.00102 |
Grade A, and why
mcp-server 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 59 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
ITM.MCP agent instructions
Required startup
Before investigating, planning, or changing anything:
- Read
../AGENTS.md. Its engineering, documentation, testing, security, Git, and deployment rules are mandatory here. - Read
../README.mdfor platform-wide context and documentation routing. - Read this repository's
README.md. - Read
../test-and-build.mdbefore building or testing. - Read the active specification and
zz_Specifications/INDEX.mdwhen a task changes a documented MCP contract.
Only this repository's root README is mandatory. Nested READMEs are contextual and should only be read when the task directly concerns their directory.
Before concluding that server, database, Help Scout, logging, or other access
information is unavailable, follow the documentation routing in ../AGENTS.md
and ../README.md.
Repository scope and related repositories
- This repository owns the MCP server, tool and resource schemas, OAuth and API-key transports, REST and DataMart routing, server-side audit behavior, the npm package, and MCP public API documentation.
ITM.Tasksand other platform APIs own canonical write and single-record behavior.ITM.DataMartowns analytical reads,ITM.Webowns API gateway and OAuth integration, andITM.Connectorowns the DataMart extension lifecycle.- Treat required changes in sibling repositories as separate work in their own Git roots. Keep API gateway routes, REST contracts, DataMart fields, permissions, tool schemas, tests, and published documentation aligned across all affected sides.
DataMart activation and regeneration
- Current
ITM.Connectorbehavior keepsonEnabledcheap and idempotent on every active save. Expensive DataMart backfill is inonActivated, which runs only on an inactive-to-active transition. - Activating a tenant still schedules a full tenant regeneration. Never perform bulk production activation or regeneration during business hours. Use approved off-peak batches and the DataMart
/regenerateor/regenerate-manyendpoints when explicit regeneration is required. - During a staged rollout, verify the exact deployed
ITM.Connectorrevision and extension template before relying on this split. Older deployments fired regeneration fromonEnabledon every active save. - The incident evidence and historical mechanism are in
../zz_Tickets/2026-08-07-api-latency-datamart-regeneration.md; keep the operative rule here concise and current.
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.
