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 | $0.01001 | $0.01001 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00400 | $0.00400 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00200 | $0.00200 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00100 | $0.00100 |
Grade A, and why
conch copilot-instructions.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 — 100 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
R-Shell Copilot Instructions
Project Overview
R-Shell is a Rust-native command-line SSH workspace. The entire application lives in cli/ — there is no graphical UI, web frontend, or Tauri backend. SSH transport, persistence, and the MCP server all run inside a single clap-based CLI binary named r-shell.
Architecture
The app is a clap CLI (entry point cli/src/main.rs). Subcommands map to single responsibilities and reuse a set of UI-free core modules. A Tokio runtime is built per command invocation to drive async SSH/SFTP and the MCP HTTP server.
Subcommands
| Command | Responsibility |
|---|---|
connections list/add/update/remove |
Manage saved connections in workspace.json |
exec |
Run one remote command and print output |
shell |
Interactive PTY shell (crossterm raw mode) |
ls |
List a remote directory |
upload / download |
Single-file SFTP transfer |
stats |
One-shot remote system resource snapshot |
mcp |
Run the local MCP server |
Module Map (cli/src/)
| Module | Responsibility |
|---|---|
main.rs |
CLI entry, clap arg parsing, command handlers, output formatting |
model.rs |
Persisted workspace + connection data models (SavedConnection, TerminalTab, ConnectionStatus, PersistedWorkspace) |
storage.rs |
Local workspace persistence (load/save JSON on disk) |
ssh.rs (+ ssh/tests.rs) |
SSH, PTY, and SFTP implementation on russh / russh-sftp |
native_backend.rs |
Connection manager (NativeConnectionManager, SshConfig, AuthMethod, remote file types) |
monitor.rs |
Remote system monitoring/stats parsing and formatting |
mcp.rs |
Local MCP Streamable HTTP server |
MCP Server
A local MCP Streamable HTTP server is exposed while the app runs, bound to localhost only:
http://127.0.0.1:9123/mcp
Tools cover SSH connection management and listing open tabs. MCP responses must never include passwords, private keys, or passphrases.
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.

conch copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository MageGojo/conch (4 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,001 tokens to every session, about $0.0040 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
