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 | $0.00940 | $0.00940 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00376 | $0.00376 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00188 | $0.00188 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00094 | $0.00094 |
Grade A, and why
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 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 61 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md — @rendobar/mcp
Guide for agents and humans working on the Rendobar MCP server. Companion to the monorepo guide at rendobar/rendobar. Dev rules, build/test commands, and the MCP-specific hard bans live in CLAUDE.md — read it before changing code.
TL;DR
- What this is: the local stdio Model Context Protocol server for Rendobar. Single ESM bundle, ~6 tools, public, MIT.
- SDK source: lives in the rendobar/rendobar monorepo under
packages/sdk/. Consumed here as@rendobar/sdkfrom npm. - Release: conventional commits → release-please → npm publish with provenance +
.mcpbGitHub Release asset + official MCP registry. - No manual tags, no manual version bumps. release-please owns them.
The rules that bite (full detail in CLAUDE.md)
- Never write to stdout. It is reserved for JSON-RPC framing; one stray byte kills the connection. Logs go to stderr.
- Recoverable tool failures return
{ isError: true }, not throws. Throw only for programmer bugs. - Cold-start budget < 2 s, bundle < 100 KB. CI asserts both. No network calls at module load.
- One Zod version. The SDK uses
zod/v4; two copies breakregisterTool. Fix the dep tree, neveras any.

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.

mcp AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository rendobar/mcp (1 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 940 tokens to every session, about $0.0038 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
