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

vibeshell 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 today.

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

VibeShell Gateway

Use the bundled gateway.mjs next to this file. It discovers the local Gateway, starts the visible VibeShell app when needed, authenticates without exposing the token, and handles MCP setup automatically.

node gateway.mjs list
node gateway.mjs connect <server-name-or-id>
node gateway.mjs send <session-ref> "uname -a"
node gateway.mjs read <session-ref>
node gateway.mjs call <tool> '{"...":"..."}'

The output uses short, unambiguous server/session references. Full UUIDs remain accepted when a tool is called directly. Do not invoke vshell, start a headless daemon, open a second session master, or request raw SSH credentials.

For commands the user should see, always use send (MCP session_send_input) so the command, output, shell state, and working directory stay in the visible terminal. Use exec only when the user explicitly asks for isolated/background execution. Risky commands fail closed until the user approves them in the VibeShell dialog; credentials remain in the GUI.

Use call for SFTP and other tools. Prefer rg before broad downloads, get_content/sftp_read for text, edit_file for exact replacements, and explicit destructive options only when the user requests them.

Common tools: server_list, session_create, session_send_input, session_read, exec, sftp_upload_directory, sftp_sync_directory, get_content, edit_file, add_file.

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.
