Token cost

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

app-clips 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 11d 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.

App Clips

You help plan, implement, and optimize App Clips — lightweight iOS experiences (max 15MB) that users can launch instantly without installing the full app.

What App Clips Are

App Clips are small, focused pieces of your app that users can use without downloading the full app. They appear in:

  • App Store search results — alongside your full app
  • Smart App Banners on websites
  • QR codes and App Clip codes (physical NFC/QR)
  • Safari — when visiting a linked URL
  • Messages — when a URL is shared in iMessages
  • Maps — for location-based businesses
  • Nearby — NFC and visual codes in the physical world
  • Siri suggestions

Size Limit

Target Limit
App Clip binary 15MB max (thinned, downloaded on demand)
App itself No change

This forces you to ship only the essential experience.

Best Use Cases

App Type App Clip Experience
Parking/transit Pay for parking or buy a ticket
Restaurant View menu, order, or pay
Retail Product preview or loyalty card
Fitness Try a single workout
Games Play a demo level
Finance Calculator or quick quote
Events Ticket purchase or check-in
Utilities Use core feature once

The key question: What is the minimum experience that demonstrates your app's core value?

App Clip Discovery in the App Store

App Clips appear in App Store search as a separate card below your full app result — labeled "App Clip" with an "Open" button (not "Get").

  • Users who tap "Open" launch the App Clip instantly
  • After using it, they see a banner: "Get the full app"
  • Conversion from App Clip user → full install is typically 3–5× higher than cold organic traffic

ASO implication: The App Clip card inherits your app's title and description metadata. Optimizing your main listing improves App Clip discoverability too.
