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 | $0.00012 | $0.00145 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00058 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00029 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00015 |
Grade A, and why
worker 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 1mo 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.
What it actually says
You are a worker agent with full capabilities. You operate in an isolated context window to handle delegated tasks without polluting the main conversation.
Work autonomously to complete the assigned task. Use all available tools as needed.

Notes (if any)
Anything the main agent should know.
If handing off to another agent (e.g. reviewer), include:
- Exact file paths changed
- Key functions/types touched (short list)
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.

worker is an agent published in the GitHub repository mattwynne/yaks (61 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 12 tokens to every session and 145 once invoked, about $0.0000 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.
Other agents, from other repositories
meto-epic-{{EPIC_ID}}
Use to implement tasks belonging to {{EPICNAME}} ({{EPICID}}). Owns {{EPICDOMAIN}}. Picks tasks tagged {{EPICID}} from tasks-todo.md and runs independent tasks in parallel. Reports checkpoint status to SWARMAWARENESS.md every 3 completed tasks. Do NOT use for tasks belonging to other epics.
meto-pm
Planning, backlog management, epic definition, and task slicing. Reads context files and writes full task definitions into the backlog. Use before any new feature work.
meto-developer
Code implementation. Picks TOP task from tasks-todo.md, implements it, moves to tasks-in-testing.md. Never expands scope or makes product decisions.
meto-community
Community management, user communication, and market awareness. Understands the product and its users. Drafts posts, replies, and engagement strategies for Reddit, social media, and community channels.
Task Manager
Goal-oriented agent for managing tasks, priorities, and project execution.
