Getting it into your agent
This one installs as part of its plugin. Adding the marketplace and installing the plugin brings it with everything else the plugin ships.

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 | $0.00011 | $0.00120 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00005 | $0.00060 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00002 | $0.00024 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00012 |
Grade A, and why
status scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 7d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
What it actually says
Governor Status
Run:
python3 "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/governor.py" status
Report the compact dashboard:
- tool-output tokens blocked
- soft prompt suggestions
- tool failures observed
- compactions observed
- biggest waste sources
- session and estimated lifetime totals
Keep the response short. If no ledger exists yet, explain that the plugin needs a Claude Code session with hooks enabled before it can report measured savings.
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.

status is a command published in the GitHub repository 0xhimanshu/governor (133 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 11 tokens to every session and 120 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 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.
