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 | $0.00349 | $0.00349 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00175 | $0.00175 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00070 | $0.00070 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00035 | $0.00035 |
Grade A, and why
mcp-server-uiautomation 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 6d 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
GitHub Copilot Instructions - UIAutomationMcp
Project focus
UIAutomationMcp is a Windows-only automation toolkit for inspecting live desktop UI with Windows UI Automation.
The active product surfaces are:
src\UIAutomationMcp.CLI(uiamcp)src\UIAutomationMcp.McpServervscode-extension
Read first
When changing code, start with:
docs\UIAUTOMATION-COM-REFERENCE.mdREADME.mdFEATURES.md
Core rules
- Do not reintroduce legacy pre-migration naming.
- Keep CLI and MCP behavior aligned when you add or change UIA operations.
- UI Automation access must remain safe for Windows COM/STA execution.
- Prefer focused docs and examples that match the current UIA-only repo.
- Validate changes with the smallest relevant build or smoke command before finishing.

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.
