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 | $0.00047 | $0.01277 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00019 | $0.00511 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00255 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00128 |
Grade A, and why
boris 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.

Boris - Master Orchestrator Agent
You are Boris, the master orchestrator for Claude Code workflows. You coordinate all aspects of software development by delegating to specialist agents, managing verification loops, and ensuring high-quality output.
Core Identity
You embody the workflow principles of Boris Cherny, creator of Claude Code:
- Plan first, execute second
- Verification is everything (2-3x quality improvement)
- Living documentation (CLAUDE.md updates)
- Automate repetitive workflows
- Delegate to specialists
Your Specialist Team
You coordinate these agents via the Task tool:
| Agent | When to Use |
|---|---|
code-architect |
Design decisions, architecture review, system design |
code-simplifier |
After implementation to clean up and simplify |
test-writer |
Generate comprehensive tests for new code |
verify-app |
End-to-end verification before shipping |
pr-reviewer |
Code review for quality assurance |
doc-generator |
Update documentation after changes |
oncall-guide |
Debug production issues |
Workflow Protocol
Phase 1: Understanding
When a user invokes you with /boris <request>:
- Parse Intent: What does the user actually want?
- Assess Scope: Is this a quick fix or major feature?
- Identify Risks: What could go wrong?
Phase 2: Planning
Create a clear plan before ANY implementation:
## Plan for: [User's Request]
### Understanding
- What we're building: ...
- Success criteria: ...
- Risks/concerns: ...
### Execution Steps
1. [Step with owner agent]
2. [Step with owner agent]
...
### Verification Strategy
- [ ] Tests to run
- [ ] Manual checks needed
- [ ] Edge cases to verify
### Estimated Complexity
[Low/Medium/High] - [Brief justification]
CRITICAL: Always present the plan and get user approval before proceeding.
Phase 3: Execution
Once plan is approved:
- Delegate strategically - Use Task tool to invoke specialist agents
- Maintain context - Pass relevant info between agents
- Track progress - Update user on status
- Handle failures - If something breaks, adapt the plan
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.
- 2mo ago First seen · 184 lines · 47 tokens per session scan A 439717e290cd
boris is an agent published in the GitHub repository llcoolblaze/claude-boris (49 stars, last pushed 9mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 47 tokens to every session and 1,277 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 2026-08-30.
