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

powerpoint-mcp 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.

PowerPoint MCP Server Skill

Provides 16 PowerPoint MCP tools (one presentation tool + 15 domain action-dispatch tools) via the Model Context Protocol, driving a live PowerPoint desktop instance through the official Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint PIA. Tools are auto-discovered via MCP tools/list — this skill documents session lifecycle, indexing conventions, workflows, and gotchas that aren't obvious from tool schemas alone.

Session lifecycle, Save As/copy, templates, the advisory Mark as Final flag, document properties, and presentation tags use the presentation action-dispatch tool with camelCase arguments. Domain tools (slide, shape, textframe, table, chart, image, media, notes, layout, master, smartart, animation, export, pagesetup, accessibility) are action-dispatch: one tool per domain, called as tool(action: "kebab-action", session_id: ..., snake_case_param: ...).

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.
