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 | $0.02090 | $0.02090 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00836 | $0.00836 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00418 | $0.00418 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00209 | $0.00209 |
Grade A, and why
ableton-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 yesterday.
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.

AGENTS.md — ableton-mcp-server
Purpose
ableton-mcp-server v0.8.1 exposes 97 MCP tools for inspecting and safely mutating an Ableton Live Set. Fourteen are local/headless and 83 may require Ableton Live; the current routes are loopback TCP, loopback WebSocket, composed local calls, and local-only tools. A Python FastMCP process coordinates a Live MIDI Remote Script over TCP and an Ableton Extension over WebSocket. The repository is MIT-licensed and targets Windows-hosted Ableton Live; WSL clients must launch the Windows-native executable.
Read order
- This file for repository-wide rules.
- Only the relevant
.agent-context/{architecture,conventions,dependencies,hot-files,risks}.mdfile. - Current source, tests, Git evidence, and canonical docs for task-specific claims.
Canonical project docs are README.md, docs/ARCHITECTURE.md, docs/TOOL_REFERENCE.md, docs/api_capability_matrix.md, and docs/KNOWN_BUGS.md. Files under prompts/ are proposals/handoffs and can be partially superseded; verify them against current code before acting.
Recent change context (read this if working on transport, capability matrix, or resolved envelope)
The v0.5.2 release landed four coordinated changes driven by the comparison with the public 8309/ableton-agent-hub project. Any agent picking up follow-up work should read the planning and handoff documents first to avoid re-litigating settled decisions:
docs/ABLETON_AGENT_HUB_REFACTORING.md— the original direction-setting plan (compare/contrast, scope decisions, items explicitly NOT to copy from the upstream project).docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-01-r1-resolved-field.md— the canonical shape of theresolvedsub-object returned by mutation tools; deviating from this spec requires a new spec and a coordinated test update.docs/superpowers/specs/2026-08-01-r4-capability-matrix.md— the design behind the newget_bridge_status.tools/capability_counts/capability_sourcefields; the spec contains a known non-blocking drift note aboutlive_required_tools(57, not 59) that should be reconciled.tasks/v0-5-1-refactor-r1r3/HANDOFF.md— the per-wave status and audit findings for v0.5.2. The current line subsequently implements the bounded R2/R6/E1 follow-ups described below.
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.

ableton-mcp-server AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository ntworm/ableton-mcp-server (4 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 2,090 tokens to every session, about $0.0084 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.
