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 | $0.00045 | $0.00999 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00400 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00200 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00100 |
Grade A, and why
mcp-tool-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 2mo 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.

MCP Tool Patterns — Akashic Context
Tool Registration Pattern
Tools are registered in setupToolHandlers() inside ListToolsRequestSchema handler.
Each tool needs: name, description, inputSchema (JSON Schema).
{
name: "memory_context",
description: "Get or set working memory (context.json) for a user.",
inputSchema: {
type: "object",
properties: {
userId: {
type: "string",
description: "User identifier (default: 'default')",
},
action: {
type: "string",
enum: ["get", "set"],
description: "Get or set working memory",
},
data: {
type: "object",
description: "Data to set (only for action='set')",
},
},
required: ["action"],
},
},
Handler Pattern (Zod validation)
All handlers use Zod for input validation:
private async handleMemoryContext(args: unknown) {
const schema = z.object({
userId: z.string().optional().default("default"),
action: z.enum(["get", "set"]),
data: z.record(z.unknown()).optional(),
});
const { userId, action, data } = schema.parse(args);
// implementation...
}
Adding userId to Existing Tools
Before (hardcoded):
// In constructor
this.manager = new MemoryManager({
dataDir,
userId: "mcp-user", // hardcoded
workspaceDir: config.workspaceDir,
// ...
});
After (per-call userId): The manager must be created per-call (or use a manager factory/cache). Pattern: create MemoryManager per userId on demand, cache by userId.
private managers = new Map<string, MemoryManager>();
private getManager(userId: string): MemoryManager {
if (!this.managers.has(userId)) {
const manager = new MemoryManager({
dataDir: this.dataDir,
userId,
workspaceDir: this.workspaceDir, // base dir, manager appends users/{userId}
memory: this.memoryConfig,
});
if (this.embeddingConfig) {
this.setupEmbeddingProviderForManager(manager, this.embeddingConfig);
}
this.managers.set(userId, manager);
}
return this.managers.get(userId)!;
}
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-tool-patterns is a skill published in the GitHub repository tostechbr/memoryClaw (8 stars, last pushed 8mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 45 tokens to every session and 999 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-31.
