What is compare-programs?

A command for comparing airline loyalty programs, which let travelers use points or miles for flights. It compares award prices, taxes, regions, cabin classes, and peak or off-peak differences across supported programs.

Use it to compare programs for a route or region and identify which offers the better points-and-taxes price for each cabin.

It brings comparable pricing into one view so you can avoid checking programs separately and spot taxes or fuel surcharges that change the value.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00007	$0.00401
Opus 5	$0.00003	$0.00200
Sonnet 5	$0.00001	$0.00080
Haiku 4.5	$0.00001	$0.00040

Measured 5d ago against content hash 4e0a01cc05f6, method: parsed. Prices are Anthropic first-party input rates as of 2026-09-05, from the pricing page.

Security

Grade A, and why

compare-programs 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 5d 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

Compare Loyalty Programs

The user wants to compare loyalty program award charts across the 23 programs Award Travel Finder supports.

Arguments

The user invoked this command with: $ARGUMENTS

Parse arguments for program names or slugs. If none provided, suggest the most common comparisons (Avios vs Aeroplan, Flying Blue vs Virgin, etc.) and ask which to compare.

Available program slugs: british-airways, iberia, qatar-airways, aer-lingus, virgin-atlantic, aeroplan, flying-blue, cathay-pacific, singapore-airlines, emirates, etihad, turkish-airlines, ana, jetblue

Process

Use get_program_rates for each requested program.
If a specific route is mentioned, also run get_pricing to anchor the comparison to real numbers for that route.
If a region is mentioned, filter results to that area.
Present a comparison table: Destination/Region | Cabin | Program A points + taxes | Program B points + taxes
Highlight which program offers the best value for each cabin class.
Note off-peak vs peak pricing differences and fuel surcharge gotchas (BA and Virgin tend high; Aeroplan, Asia Miles, Flying Blue tend lower or zero on partner metal).

Examples

/atf:compare-programs british-airways emirates
/atf:compare-programs aeroplan flying-blue virgin-atlantic
/atf:compare-programs cathay-pacific ana for HKG-NRT

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.
