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

apple-music 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 9d 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.

What it actually says

Driving Apple Music with background computer use

  1. Always call get_app_state app="Music" (display name) or get_app_state app="com.apple.Music" before interacting.
  2. The Play/Pause button toggles its title; re-read state after each press.
  3. Prefer set_value over type_text when replacing the search field's contents; submit with press_key key="Return".
  4. Use perform_secondary_action with ShowMenu on track rows to reach "Add to Queue", "Play Next", "Copy Song Link", etc.
  5. Use scroll against the library collection element's index, not the window. For a specific off-screen row, prefer perform_secondary_action index "ScrollToVisible".
  6. The volume slider is settable=true; use set_value with a string like "0.5" rather than arrow keys (which change playback position).

Extended guidance is injected as <app_hints> on every get_app_state call for Apple Music; the source lives in server/app-hints/AppleMusic.md.

Changes

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.
