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

m2e CLAUDE.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.

Project Overview

M2E is a text conversion application that converts American English to standard international / British English spellings with a tongue-and-cheek approach to it's functionality naming, with optional imperial-to-metric unit conversion. Built with Go backend and React frontend using Wails v2 framework.

Core Architecture

Main Components

  • Backend: Go application (app.go, main.go) using Wails v2 for native desktop app
  • Frontend: React SPA in frontend/ directory with Vite build system
  • Converter Package: Core logic in pkg/converter/ handles text conversion and unit processing
  • Multiple Interface Modes: GUI (Wails), CLI with integrated report mode, HTTP API server, and MCP server

Key Files

  • app.go: Application binding and frontend interface methods
  • pkg/converter/converter.go: Core conversion logic with embedded dictionaries
  • pkg/converter/unit_*.go: Unit conversion system (detector, patterns, config)
  • pkg/converter/codeaware.go: Code-aware conversion preserving syntax
  • cmd/: Different executable entry points (CLI with report mode, server, MCP)
  • pkg/report/: Report generation and analysis functionality

Development Commands

Build and Test

make                # Default: lint, test, build all
make lint           # Run golangci-lint and formatting checks
make test           # Run all tests in tests/ directory
make build          # Build all applications (GUI, CLI, server, MCP)
Build VSCode Extension
make vscode-build   # Build VSCode extension for M2E - This is already triggered by `make build`
Individual Builds

make build-cli      # Command-line interface with integrated report mode
make build-server   # HTTP API server
make build-mcp      # MCP server for AI tools
make vscode-build   # VSCode extension

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.
