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 | $0.00631 | $0.00631 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00252 | $0.00252 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00126 | $0.00126 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00063 | $0.00063 |
Grade A, and why
kicad-mcp-pro 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 22d 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 — 41 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Repository Agent Router
Use this file as a router, not as a duplicate engineering manual. Follow the canonical sources below and keep changes evidence-driven.
Scope and precedence
- This file applies repository-wide.
- Nested
AGENTS.mdfiles add or narrow instructions for their subtree; the closest applicable file wins. - Nested instructions must not weaken repository security, architecture, compatibility, evidence, release, or human-approval constraints unless the underlying policy is intentionally changed in the same work.
- Executable repository policy and tests remain authoritative if prose drifts.
Nested operational boundaries:
src/kicad_mcp/AGENTS.md— server architecture, KiCad adapter seam, path/subprocess safety, typed errors, and real-state rules.src/kicad_mcp/tools/AGENTS.md— public MCP tools, profiles, operating modes, annotations, generated contracts, and manufacturing gates..github/AGENTS.md— CI, required checks, workflow security, release, provenance, and publishing.integrations/AGENTS.md— agent-runtime config templates, installers, permission defaults, and integration drift.src-tauri/AGENTS.md— Rust/Tauri desktop lifecycle, backend compatibility, loopback boundary, and packaging.packages/AGENTS.md— npm wrapper, protocol schemas, fixtures, and KiCad companion package boundaries.

Working rules
- Inspect the relevant architecture/service/adapter boundary before editing.
- Prefer existing domain services and adapter seams; do not bypass them with ad-hoc KiCad file rewriting.
- Add or change tests before production behaviour changes, then run the smallest relevant suite and repository gates.
- Treat generated files as outputs. Use their documented generator/check command instead of hand-editing them.
- Preserve explicit GitHub Actions permissions, SHA-pinned Actions, path guards, and human-only manufacturing controls.
- Do not claim native KiCad, manufacturing, or live-model success without the repository's required evidence.
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.

kicad-mcp-pro AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository oaslananka/kicad-mcp-pro (156 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 631 tokens to every session, about $0.0025 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 2026-09-05.
