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 | $0.00044 | $0.00880 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00022 | $0.00440 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00009 | $0.00176 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00088 |
Grade A, and why
mcp-server-patterns 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 6d 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.
This is a copy
94% identical to mcp-server-patterns — 3 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

MCP Server Patterns
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets AI assistants call tools, read resources, and use prompts from your server. Use this skill when building or maintaining MCP servers. The SDK API evolves; check Context7 (query-docs for "MCP") or the official MCP documentation for current method names and signatures.
When to Use
Use when: implementing a new MCP server, adding tools or resources, choosing stdio vs HTTP, upgrading the SDK, or debugging MCP registration and transport issues.
How It Works
Core concepts
- Tools: Actions the model can invoke (e.g. search, run a command). Register with
registerTool()ortool()depending on SDK version. - Resources: Read-only data the model can fetch (e.g. file contents, API responses). Register with
registerResource()orresource(). Handlers typically receive auriargument. - Prompts: Reusable, parameterised prompt templates the client can surface (e.g. in Claude Desktop). Register with
registerPrompt()or equivalent. - Transport: stdio for local clients (e.g. Claude Desktop); Streamable HTTP is preferred for remote (Cursor, cloud). Legacy HTTP/SSE is for backward compatibility.
The Node/TypeScript SDK may expose tool() / resource() or registerTool() / registerResource(); the official SDK has changed over time. Always verify against the current MCP docs or Context7.
Connecting with stdio
For local clients, create a stdio transport and pass it to your server’s connect method. The exact API varies by SDK version (e.g. constructor vs factory). See the official MCP documentation or query Context7 for "MCP stdio server" for the current pattern.
Keep server logic (tools + resources) independent of transport so you can plug in stdio or HTTP in the entrypoint.
Remote (Streamable HTTP)
For Cursor, cloud, or other remote clients, use Streamable HTTP (single MCP HTTP endpoint per current spec). Support legacy HTTP/SSE only when backward compatibility is required.
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-server-patterns is a skill published in the GitHub repository SiniyaYousuf/everything_claudecode (14 stars, last pushed 5mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 880 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 94% identical to mcp-server-patterns, differing in 3 lines, and is treated as a copy.
