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 | $0.02091 | $0.02091 |
| Opus 5 | $0.01045 | $0.01045 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00418 | $0.00418 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00209 | $0.00209 |
Grade A, and why
lsmcp CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories โ prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency โ measured 6d 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.

CRITICAL: PRIORITIZE LSMCP TOOLS FOR CODE ANALYSIS
โ ๏ธ PRIMARY REQUIREMENT: You MUST prioritize mcp__lsmcp tools for all code analysis tasks. Standard tools should only be used as a last resort when LSMCP tools cannot accomplish the task.
๐ RECOMMENDED WORKFLOW
1. get_project_overview โ Understand the codebase structure
2. search_symbols โ Find specific symbols you need
3. get_symbol_details โ Get comprehensive information about those symbols
๐ฏ WHEN TO USE EACH TOOL
For Initial Exploration:
mcp__lsmcp__get_project_overview- First tool to run when exploring a new codebasemcp__lsmcp__list_dir- Browse directory structure when you need to understand file organizationmcp__lsmcp__get_symbols_overview- Get a high-level view of symbols in specific files
For Finding Code:
mcp__lsmcp__search_symbols- Primary search tool for functions, classes, interfaces, etc.mcp__lsmcp__lsp_get_workspace_symbols- Alternative workspace-wide symbol searchmcp__lsmcp__lsp_get_document_symbols- List all symbols in a specific file
For Understanding Code:
mcp__lsmcp__get_symbol_details- Get complete information (type, definition, references) in one callmcp__lsmcp__lsp_get_hover- Quick type information at a specific positionmcp__lsmcp__lsp_get_definitions- Navigate to symbol definition (useincludeBody: truefor full implementation)mcp__lsmcp__lsp_find_references- Find all places where a symbol is used
For Code Quality:
mcp__lsmcp__lsp_get_diagnostics- Check for errors in a specific filemcp__lsmcp__lsp_get_code_actions- Get available fixes and refactorings
For Code Modification:
mcp__lsmcp__lsp_rename_symbol- Safely rename symbols across the codebasemcp__lsmcp__lsp_format_document- Format code according to language conventionsmcp__lsmcp__replace_range- Make precise text replacementsmcp__lsmcp__replace_regex- Pattern-based replacementsmcp__lsmcp__lsp_delete_symbol- Remove symbols and their references
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.

lsmcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository mizchi/lsmcp (453 stars, last pushed 10mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 2,091 tokens to every session, about $0.0105 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
