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 | $0.00067 | $0.03989 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00034 | $0.01995 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00798 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00399 |
Grade A, and why
mcp-apps-ts 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 10d 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.

MCP Apps Host Development & Reference
Build applications that embed MCP App UIs using AppBridge, with comprehensive reference documentation.
This is an experimental extension. MCP Apps enables servers to deliver interactive HTML UIs that run in sandboxed iframes, allowing rich visual interfaces while maintaining security.
When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when:
- Building a host application that embeds MCP App UIs (chat app, IDE plugin, agent interface)
- Implementing AppBridge for iframe communication, tool routing, and security
- Developing multi-server hosts with tool aggregation and UI routing
- Learning MCP Apps architecture without cloning the ext-apps repository
- Referencing the complete API for App, AppBridge, and React hooks
For creating MCP App servers or UIs: Use the official create-mcp-app skill first - it provides guided project scaffolding. This skill's server/app snippets are supplementary reference material.
Install official skills via:
/plugin marketplace add modelcontextprotocol/ext-appsornpx skills add modelcontextprotocol/ext-apps
React Hosts: For React-based host applications, consider
@mcp-ui/clientwhich provides ready-made React components for rendering MCP Apps. See mcpui.dev documentation. This skill focuses on lower-level AppBridge integration for custom hosts.
Tip: Stay up to date! MCP Apps is under active development. Before starting, check the ext-apps repository for:
- Open Pull Requests - upcoming changes
- Issues - known bugs and feature requests
- Recent Commits - latest changes
- Releases - version history

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.

mcp-apps-ts is a skill published in the GitHub repository olaservo/mcp-agent-skills (2 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 67 tokens to every session and 3,989 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 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 2026-08-31.
