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 | $0.00460 | $0.00460 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00230 | $0.00230 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00092 | $0.00092 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00046 | $0.00046 |
Grade A, and why
mealie-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 10d 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.
What it actually says
Repository guidance
Project shape
- This is a Python 3.12 MCP server backed by the Mealie HTTP API.
src/mealie/contains API mixins and the shared HTTP client.src/tools/contains FastMCP-facing tool registrations.src/models/contains Pydantic request and response models.src/server.pywires configuration, the client, prompts, and tools together.- Use the SDK import
from mcp.server.fastmcp import FastMCP; there is no standalonefastmcpdependency.
Development workflow
- Install all development dependencies with
uv sync --extra dev. - Before committing, run
uv run ruff check src testsanduv run pytest -q. - Keep
uv.locksynchronized wheneverpyproject.tomlchanges. - Make focused commits. Do not stage generated files, local logs,
.env,.DS_Store, or debug artifacts. - The shared working tree may contain user changes. Inspect
git statusfirst and preserve unrelated work. - Before pushing
main, fetch the remote and inspect divergence. Rebase without overwriting newer remote functionality.
Behavioral constraints
- Never log API keys, request bodies, response bodies, recipe content, user data, or shopping-list content.
- Logging for stdio transport must go to stderr. Do not add an unconditional file logger or write protocol-adjacent output to stdout.
- Startup must fail on unsuccessful Mealie health checks; always call
raise_for_status(). - Close the HTTP client during shutdown.
- Keep MCP tool names and prompt references synchronized.
- Preserve Mealie field casing at the API boundary, such as
recipeId,entryType, andperPage.
Adding an API capability
- Add or extend the appropriate mixin in
src/mealie/. - Ensure the mixin is inherited by
MealieFetcherinsrc/mealie/__init__.py. - Add the FastMCP wrapper in
src/tools/. - Register and export the wrapper through
src/tools/__init__.py. - Add tests for request method, URL, parameters or payload, validation, success, and failure behavior.
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.

mealie-mcp-server AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository rldiao/mealie-mcp-server (136 stars, last pushed 13d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 460 tokens to every session, about $0.0023 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-30.
