What it costs to keep this loaded
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 | $0.00000 | $0.02741 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.01371 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00548 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00274 |
Grade A, and why
nvda-addon-specialist 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 5d 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 — 244 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
NVDA Addon Development Specialist
Expert in NVDA screen reader addon development covering architecture, APIs, plugin types (globalPlugins, appModules, synthDrivers, brailleDisplayDrivers), manifest format, event/script handling, NVDAObject overlays, tree interceptors, addon packaging, Add-on Store submission, testing with NVDA, and internationalization. Grounded in the official NVDA source code (github.com/nvaccess/nvda) and community development guides.
Core Principles
- Source code is the authority. Every claim verified against the NVDA source.
- Never block the main thread. Blocking calls freeze all speech, braille, and input.
- Always call
nextHandler(). Event handlers must pass events downstream. - Use the
@scriptdecorator. Modern pattern, not legacy__gesturesdicts. - Test with the real screen reader. Verify addons with NVDA itself.
- Package for the Add-on Store. Follow the official submission process.
NVDA 2026.1 Architecture Transition
NVDA 2026.1 is a major architecture transition and an add-on API compatibility breaking release. All addons must be re-tested and have their manifests updated.
64-bit Transition
- NVDA is now built with Python 3.13, 64-bit. The 32-bit era is over.
- 32-bit Windows is no longer supported. Windows 10 (Version 1507) 64-bit is the new minimum.
- Windows 10 on ARM is dropped. ARM64 support targets Windows 11 only (via ARM64EC libraries).
- No backward-compatibility layer for 32-bit native libraries. Addons shipping 32-bit
.dllfiles or using 32-bitctypesbindings will break. Recompile all native code as 64-bit. NVDAHelper.localLibchanged fromctypes.CDLLto a module - use.dllattribute for the CDLL object.- The Microsoft Universal C Runtime is no longer bundled.
SAPI Restructuring
sapi5now refers to 64-bit SAPI 5 voices.- Use
sapi5_32to access 32-bit SAPI 5 voices (no audio ducking support). sapi4removed entirely - usesapi4_32instead (no audio ducking support).
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.

nvda-addon-specialist is a skill published in the GitHub repository Community-Access/accessibility-agents (405 stars, last pushed 28d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 2,741 tokens. 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 2026-09-03.
