Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

phone-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 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.

Android MCP Server - Instructions

Project Overview

This is a multi-module Android application that implements a Server-Sent Events (SSE) MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. The server enables AI assistants to connect and interact with Android device capabilities through a standardized protocol.

Key Features

  • SSE-based MCP Server: Runs as an Android foreground service with Ktor
  • Modular Tool Architecture: Each device capability is a separate, pluggable module
  • Dynamic Tool Management: Tools can be enabled/disabled at runtime with user consent
  • Privacy-Focused: Each tool requires explicit user permission with clear disclaimers
  • Authentication: Bearer token-based authentication for secure connections
  • External Tool Support: Third-party apps can expose MCP tools via Content Providers

Architecture Overview

The application follows a clean, modular architecture with clear separation of concerns:

Core Modules

1. /app - Main Application Module

Purpose: Contains the UI, server logic, and service management

Key Components:

  • McpServerService: Foreground service that runs the Ktor SSE server
  • McpServerApplication: Application class with Hilt setup
  • MainActivity: Compose UI for server control and tool management
  • ToolService: Manages tool states and preferences
  • ToolPreferencesRepository: DataStore-based persistence for tool states
  • AuthRepository: Manages authentication tokens

Dependencies: All tool modules, core, mcp-provider

2. /core - Core Interfaces

Purpose: Defines the McpTool interface that all tools implement

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.
