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 | $0.00036 | $0.00599 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00018 | $0.00300 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00007 | $0.00120 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00060 |
Grade A, and why
security-review 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 10d 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 — 27 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Security Review (-link backend)
Follow AGENTS.md first. Backends are unauthenticated by design and reachable only through the router / reverse proxy — the router owns edge auth. "Read-only" is not "safe": returned text and tool descriptions are prompt-injection surfaces. Ground in ../genefoundry-router/docs/SECURITY-ASSESSMENT-2026-06-29.md and ../genefoundry-router/docs/CONTAINER-HARDENING-STANDARD-v1.md.
Checklist
- No token passthrough — never forward the MCP caller's
Authorizationto upstreams; use the backend's own credential if any. - Upstream host is fixed — a config constant, never built from a tool argument (SSRF). If a user URL is ever fetched, gate it through a scheme + host allowlist that rejects private IPs and re-validates redirects (pubtator
SafeUrlFetcherpattern). - No PII in logs — never log variant coordinates, phenotype text, or free-text queries (may be GDPR Art. 9 patient-derived); log correlation id + tool + timings only.
- SQL / XML / tar safety — parameterized queries only;
defusedxml; hardened archive extraction. - CORS — never
allow_origins=*withallow_credentials=True. - Destructive / write tools — opt-in via an explicit env flag (default off); jail any file-writing path (reject abs /
..); cap unbounded list inputs. - Container — non-root, read-only rootfs,
cap_drop: ALL,no-new-privileges, resource limits, digest-pinned base,ports: !reset []expose-only, secrets runtime-only, Trivy gate + SBOM. - Prompt injection — treat retrieved text as evidence, not instructions; keep the research-use / not-CDS disclaimer.
- Error-message sanitation — structured error fields are fixed/enum/validated; never reflect caller-supplied names/URIs or upstream 4xx/5xx bodies into caller-visible fields or logs (Response-Envelope v1.1 §Error-message sanitation; FastMCP not-found reflection guard).
Common mistakes
- Assuming a read-only server can't participate in exfiltration (lethal trifecta: private data + untrusted content + outbound channel).
- A
ports:mapping in the base compose surviving overlay merge —ports: !reset []is mandatory to drop it. - Logging the request path/params "for debugging" — that can be PHI.
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.

security-review is a skill published in the GitHub repository berntpopp/hpo-link (1 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 36 tokens to every session and 599 once invoked, about $0.0002 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.
