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 | $0.00196 | $0.00196 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00098 | $0.00098 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00039 | $0.00039 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00020 |
Grade A, and why
mcp-signal 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 8d 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
mcp-signal
Minimal Signal MCP server: read and search Signal Desktop data locally via signal-export, then send outbound messages via signal-cli JSON-RPC.
Commands
uv sync
uv run signal-mcp smoke
uv run pytest
uv run ruff check .

Constraints
- British English for prose, American English in code.
- Pin Python dependencies exactly.
- Keep the first release intentionally small: read/search/send only.
- Prefer clear tool errors over silent fallbacks.
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-signal CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository Sealjay/mcp-signal (0 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 196 tokens to every session, about $0.0010 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 2026-08-31.
