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 | $0.11246 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.05623 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.02249 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.01125 |
Grade A, and why
backend-rest-api-design scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 8d 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.
Makes network callslowCapability
Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.
| Header (`Accept: application/vnd.acme.v2+json`) | same URL, different header | Keeps URL as pure resource identifier; cleaner REST purism | Invisible in browser/curl by default, harder to cache/debug, easy for clients The source is not reproduced here
No licence file
A repository with no LICENSE is all rights reserved by default, so the body is not copied here. The metadata, the measurements and the link are.
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.

backend-rest-api-design is a skill published in the GitHub repository ieeecsopen/mcp-cs (3 stars, last pushed 4d ago), with no licence file. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 11,246 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
