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

codex-omnifocus 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 7d 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

Codex OmniFocus

Use the codex-omnifocus MCP server for OmniFocus task and project work.

Workflow

  1. Look first with query_omnifocus, filter_tasks, get_task_by_id, get_inbox_tasks, get_forecast_tasks, or get_custom_perspective_tasks.
  2. Prefer IDs for edits, moves, removals, and duplicate-prone names.
  3. Use edit_item or move_task for existing tasks. Use add_omnifocus_task only for genuinely new tasks.
  4. Use batch_add_items and batch_remove_items for multi-item changes.
  5. Use list_tags before assigning unfamiliar tags; use create_tag when a missing tag should exist.

Write Policy

Full agent writes are enabled. Do not add an extra confirmation step unless the user asks for one or the request is ambiguous.

The server writes audit JSONL records for write tools under CODEX_OMNIFOCUS_AUDIT_DIR or ~/.codex/codex-omnifocus-mcp/audit.

Tool Selection

  • Use query_omnifocus for compact task/project/folder lookups and counts.
  • Use filter_tasks for broad custom task views.
  • Use get_custom_perspective_tasks for OmniFocus custom perspectives.
  • Use get_tasks_by_tag for tag-filtered views.
  • Use dump_database only when a full database snapshot is truly needed.
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.
