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 | $0.00207 | $0.00207 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00083 | $0.00083 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00041 | $0.00041 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00021 |
Grade A, and why
seq-mcp 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 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.
What it actually says
Copilot Instructions for seq-mcp
This repository is dedicated to building a Dockerized MCP server that provides AI agents (for example Codex and Copilot) with controlled access to Datalust Seq OpenTelemetry data.
Priority Rules
- Follow
.github/instructions/seq-mcp-server.instructions.mdfirst. - Apply security guidance from
.github/instructions/security-and-owasp.instructions.md. - Apply container guidance from
.github/instructions/containerization-docker-best-practices.instructions.md.
If rules conflict, the more specific Seq MCP rule wins.
Engineering Expectations
- Model all external interactions as explicit MCP tools with clear input/output contracts.
- Validate and constrain query inputs before issuing any Seq request.
- Never hardcode secrets; use environment variables.
- Design for container-first execution and reproducible local runs.
- Favor small, testable components with observable behavior.
Out of Scope
- Generic scaffolding unrelated to Seq MCP integration.
- Legacy compatibility work that weakens clarity or security.
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.

seq-mcp copilot-instructions.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository MCLifeLeader/seq-mcp (3 stars, last pushed 10d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 207 tokens to every session, about $0.0008 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.
