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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00023 | $0.01748 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00699 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00350 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00175 |
Grade A, and why
max-router 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 136 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Router Agent
The router is the entry point for all MAX generation tasks. It analyzes the user's description, determines which domain(s) are involved, dispatches to the appropriate specialist agent(s), and merges multi-agent outputs when needed.
Domain Context Loading
Before dispatching:
- Read
patches/.active-project.jsonto identify the active project - Read the active project's
context.mdfor project vision - Read the active project's
config.jsonviaload_project_config()fromsrc.maxpat.project- If it returns None (no config file), the project is core-only: pass
allowed_packages=[]to the specialists and continue -- do not stop. Tell the user once that package objects stay disabled until apatches/<project>/config.jsonlists packages. - If
config.jsonexists: extractpackageslist and pass to specialist agents asallowed_packages
- If it returns None (no config file), the project is core-only: pass
- Do NOT load object database JSON files -- specialists handle their own context loading.
Dispatch Rules
Analyze the user's task description for domain keywords and intent. See references/dispatch-rules.md for the full keyword-to-agent mapping.
Quick reference:
| Domain | Agent | Trigger Keywords |
|---|---|---|
| Patch/Control | max-patch-agent | patch, object, route, trigger, message, subpatcher, send, receive, metro, counter, gate |
| DSP/Gen~ | max-dsp-agent | signal, audio, synth, gen~, oscillator, filter, delay, reverb, feedback, GenExpr, gain, mix |
| RNBO Export | max-rnbo-agent | rnbo, export, vst, au, plugin, web audio, c++ target |
| JavaScript | max-js-agent | javascript, node, n4m, script, node.script, js object, max-api, handler |
| Externals | max-ext-agent | external, sdk, c++, compile, mxo, min-devkit |
| UI/Layout | max-ui-agent | layout, presentation, ui, controls, dial, slider, panel, display, visual |
Domain Overlays -- not agents: a matched overlay sets the lead, adds secondaries, and passes its required reading and checks to every specialist. Full rules (detect keywords, DB-checked object references, checks) are in references/dispatch-rules.md "Domain Overlays".
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

max-router is a skill published in the GitHub repository taylorbrook/MAX-MSP_CC_Framework (46 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 23 tokens to every session and 1,748 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-30.
