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 | $0.04638 | $0.04638 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.01855 | $0.01855 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00928 | $0.00928 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00464 | $0.00464 |
Grade A, and why
ansible-flow-mcp 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 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 392 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md: ansible-flow-mcp
This checkout is the CORE branch: concept, campaign, marketing site, and Schema Lab catalog. No Python package.
- Runnable MCP and hub: branch DEVELOPMENT. Compose is the supported run path. The multi-spoke lab stays on DEVELOPMENT.
- Do not add src/, pyproject.toml, or lab images here.
What this is
ansible-flow-mcp is an MCP server that exposes Ansible to AI agents, plus an optional SSH hub/spoke multi-host fabric:
| Layer | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Core MCP | search_modules → get_module_schema → run_module / run_playbook (check-first) |
| Hub/spoke (issue #2) | Agent attaches to hub only; spokes enroll with join tokens; hub→spoke is SSH only |
| Operator TUI | Curses UI on hub: servers/groups CRUD, invite tokens, launch OpenCode |
Compose lab (lab/) |
Full hub + 3 spokes, smoke scripts, OpenCode bridge from host |
Not affiliated with Red Hat/Ansible beyond the public CLI. OpenFlow reads this gallery for its Ansible canvas.

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.

ansible-flow-mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository real-limitless/ansible-flow-mcp (3 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 4,638 tokens to every session, about $0.0186 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.
