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 | $0.04662 | $0.04662 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.01865 | $0.01865 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00932 | $0.00932 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00466 | $0.00466 |
Grade A, and why
mcp-coda 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 7d 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 — 207 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
mcp-coda — Agent Context
MCP server for the Coda v1 API. It provides 54 tools, 12 resources (2 live data + 5 rules + 5 guides), and 5 prompts. They cover docs, pages, tables, rows, formulas, controls, permissions, folders, publishing, automations, and analytics.
mcp-coda runs on FastMCP. PyPI hosts it as the mcp-coda package. Install it with uvx mcp-coda.
Protocol support
- Implements the MCP 2026-07-28 specification (MCP 2.0). Stays compatible with 2025-11-25 clients.
- Built on FastMCP 4.x and the MCP Python SDK 2.x.
- Transports:
stdio(default) andstreamable-http(recommended for remote).ssestill works, but the 2026-07-28 spec deprecates it, so the server prints a warning. - Uses tools, resources, and prompts only. No Roots, Sampling, Logging, elicitation, or resource subscriptions, so the 2026-07-28 deprecations do not affect it.

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.
