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 | $0.00428 | $0.00428 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00171 | $0.00171 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00086 | $0.00086 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00043 | $0.00043 |
Grade C, and why
servicenow-mcp-ai api.instructions.md scanned grade C 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 7d 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.

Directives inside HTML comments, invisible characters or bidirectional overrides are read by the model and not by the person reviewing the file.

src/api — layer 1, one module per ServiceNow REST area
- Layer rule (ESLint, M-2): import
core/and otherapi/modules only — nevermcp/ortools/. Domain logic lives here; tool files stay thin. - Requests: Table API work goes through
table.ts(queryTable,updateRecord…), plugin namespaces throughpluginCall()inplugin.ts(tells an inactive plugin's namespace 404 from a missing record), anything else throughsnRequest()fromcore/http.ts. Use theshared.tshelpers:snParams(),expectResult/expectResultArray,snString(),assertNoCaret(). - Policy before the network:
assertTableAllowed()and, for writes,assertWriteAllowed()/assertTableWriteAllowed()fromcore/policy.ts. - Untyped JSON is
unknownand narrowed; type-checked ESLint forbids unsafeany. ServiceNow sends most values as strings — normalise withsnString(). - Errors: throw
ServiceNowError(core/errors.ts) with a fixedcodeand a one-sentencehint; never return error objects. - Long loops report progress through
core/progress.ts(trackProgress,fetchAllProgress); a tick is also a cancellation point. - Table and field names that no code reads yet are unverified until owner gate O-5 (a PDI check) — mark them as such instead of guessing.
- Tests run every module against a mock
fetch(createFetchDouble,withFetchintest/helpers.js); nothing touches the network.
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.
