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 | $0.04653 | $0.04653 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.01861 | $0.01861 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00931 | $0.00931 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00465 | $0.00465 |
Grade A, and why
mcp-server-ppt copilot-instructions.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 — 398 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

⛔ Repository identity — read before any GitHub operation
This repository is trsdn/mcp-server-ppt. NEVER touch sbroenne/mcp-server-excel.
The project is registered as a fork of that upstream, but the histories have completely diverged (no shared root commit) and upstream belongs to someone else. Never open, close, or comment on upstream issues or PRs; never add an upstream remote; never merge or fetch from it.
gh derives its target from the git remotes and silently prefers the parent repository when an upstream remote exists. Verify before acting:
git remote -v # exactly one remote pair, both trsdn/mcp-server-ppt
gh repo set-default --view # trsdn/mcp-server-ppt
Full rationale and the incident that prompted this: Rule 31 and AGENTS.md.
📋 Critical Files (Read These First)
ALWAYS read when working on code:
- CRITICAL-RULES.md - 31 mandatory rules (repository identity, Success flag, COM cleanup, tests, etc.)
- Architecture Patterns - Batch API, command pattern, resource management
Read based on task type:
- Adding/fixing commands → PowerPoint COM Interop
- Writing tests → Testing Strategy
- MCP Server work → MCP Server Guide
- Creating PR → Development Workflow
- Fixing bugs → Bug Fixing Checklist
Less frequently needed:
- PowerPoint Connection Types - Only for connection-specific work
- README Management - Only when updating READMEs
- Documentation Structure - Only when creating docs
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.
