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 | $0.01169 | $0.01169 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00468 | $0.00468 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00234 | $0.00234 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00117 | $0.00117 |
Grade A, and why
secretsminter 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 — 87 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md — onboarding for anyone (human or AI) working in this repo
This is the tool-agnostic onboarding file. Read it before touching code, running the server, or consuming the repo. It captures the operational conventions that aren't obvious from the code alone.
What secretsminter is
A value-blind secrets-minter exposed to AI agents over MCP: it mints, places, and rotates cloud
credentials without ever returning a secret value to the calling agent. Read README.md
for the pitch and SECURITY.md for the threat model. The two invariants that govern
everything:
- Value-blind — no secret value crosses the tool boundary, an error string, or a log line.
- Destination allow-list — a placement is refused unless it matches the signed manifest. This, not value-blindness, is the real trust root.
If a change you make could violate either, stop and re-read CONTRIBUTING.md.
Layout
packages/core(@secretsminter/core) — the key-holding internal tier: all security invariants, the broker pipeline, sinks. Everything network-free here is unit-tested.packages/mcp(@secretsminter/mcp) — the agent-facing MCP server; holds no master keys.packages/providers— Cloudflare/GitHub/Supabase plugins (all have real network paths; live-run status varies per story — Cloudflare live-verified, GitHub/Supabase unit-tested against fakes).docs/adrs,docs/spikes,docs/stories— decisions, capability findings, and honest per-feature status.
Build & test
npm install
npm run build # tsc --build, strict
npm test # vitest
npm run test:coverage # vitest + the coverage gate (90/85/88/90 on real logic)
The coverage gate runs locally (npm run test:coverage), not in CI — see the isolation principle.
Isolation — secretsminter is self-contained, stores nothing, manages other repos
secretsminter deploys as pure, isolated code someone stands up to run their own broker. Non-negotiable:
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.

secretsminter AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository scorellis/secretsminter (0 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 1,169 tokens to every session, about $0.0047 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.
