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 | $0.00019 | $0.00231 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00008 | $0.00092 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00046 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00023 |
Grade A, and why
snips 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 2mo 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
Snips Manager
List and manage captured screen snips.
Steps
- Call the
mcp__snip__list_snipstool to show all captured snips with their names and timestamps. - Present the list to the user in a clear format.
- Ask the user what they'd like to do:
- View a snip: Call
mcp__snip__get_snipwith the snip name - Rename a snip: Call
mcp__snip__rename_snipwith old and new names - Delete a snip: Call
mcp__snip__delete_snipwith the snip name - Capture new: Call
mcp__snip__snip_screento take a new screenshot
- View a snip: Call
- If the user provides arguments (e.g.,
/snips rename snip_1 my_design), execute that action directly without listing first.
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.
