Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 | $0.00066 | $0.02879 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00033 | $0.01439 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00576 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00288 |
Grade A, and why
app-store-pricing 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 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.
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 — 240 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
App Store Pricing
Strategic guidance for App Store pricing using Apple's official 900-price-point system, global equalization, subscription management, and regional pricing decisions.
All guidance is based on Apple's official pricing capabilities (March 2023 onwards). Do NOT reference pre-2023 fixed tier tables or third-party price matrices — they are outdated.
When to Use
- Do use when the user asks about App Store pricing, IAP pricing, subscription pricing, regional pricing, price changes, proceeds calculations, or base storefront selection
- Do use when setting up introductory offers, promotional offers, or offer codes
- Do use when planning a price increase or decrease for subscriptions
- Don't use for general SaaS pricing theory (Van Westendorp, MaxDiff, etc.) — those frameworks don't apply to Apple's constrained price-point system
- Don't use for payment processing outside the App Store
Apple's Pricing System (Official)
900 Price Points
Apple offers 900 price points per currency (800 default + 100 higher on request up to $10,000). Price increments are:
| Price Range | Increment | Example Prices |
|---|---|---|
| $0.29 – $9.99 | $0.10 | $0.29, $0.39, $0.49 ... $9.99 |
| $10.00 – $49.99 | $0.50 | $10.00, $10.50, $11.00 ... $49.99 |
| $50.00 – $199.99 | $1.00 | $50, $51, $52 ... $199.99 |
| $200.00 – $499.99 | $5.00 | $200, $205, $210 ... $499.99 |
| $500.00 – $9,999.99 | $10–$50 | $500, $510, $520 ... $9,999.99 |
Pricing Conventions
Apple supports multiple price endings per region. Common conventions:
| Convention | Range | Best For |
|---|---|---|
.99 |
$0.99 – $9,999.99 | Standard app/IAP pricing |
.00 |
$1.00 – $10,000 | Clean numbers, annual plans |
.90 |
$0.90 – $99.90 | Discounts, promotions |
.95 |
$0.95 – $49.95 | Psychological pricing |
China has additional conventions ( endings in 8, 9, .80, .90). Choose the convention that matches your market positioning.
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.
