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 | $0.00047 | $0.00850 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00019 | $0.00340 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00170 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00085 |
Grade A, and why
platformio-dashboard 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 25d 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 — 62 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
PIO Agent Dashboard
Reading results: a non-zero exit means look at BOTH streams. An operation that ran but failed (a build with errors) puts
success: falseon stdout; one that could not run (bad arguments, policy, a busy port) putserrorTypeon stderr with stdout empty. Capture both (--json 2>&1). See thepio-managerskill for the full contract.
Use the existing dashboard as an interactive human-control surface. The
dashboard is a long-lived HTTP server, so the agent must never start one
itself. The pio-agent CLI remains the execution API and the fallback when a
browser is unavailable.
Workflow
-
Resolve the exact project directory from the active workspace or ask for it when multiple PlatformIO projects are plausible.
-
If the host already has a PIO Agent MCP session (Tier 2 in
pio-manager) and can render MCP Apps, callopen_pio_agent_panelwith thatprojectDir. Its native conversation panel covers project inspection, connected devices, policy, locks, pending approval summaries, monitor status, recent tasks, bounded logs, and builds without any HTTP server. -
Otherwise run
pio-agent dashboard --jsonto check whether a dashboard is already running. -
If one is running, open it. When the Codex in-app browser is available, open the URL in a right-side panel and reuse the current PIO Agent dashboard tab when the host provides a tab identifier; never ask for the operating system's default browser. If no in-app browser is available, give the user one labeled clickable link and say which UI capability is unavailable — do not claim the page opened. Only when the dashboard is already online may you call
get_dashboard_urlwithopen: falsefor an authenticated launch URL: that tool boots a server on demand otherwise. -
If none is running, do not start one. Tell the user to run:
pio-agent dashboard --serveand wait for them to confirm. The dashboard is a long-lived HTTP server; only the user decides to start it.
-
Never run
pio-agent dashboard --serveyourself, and never background it.
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.

platformio-dashboard is a skill published in the GitHub repository jl-codes/platformio-mcp (54 stars, last pushed 16d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 850 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-08.
