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 | $0.00009 | $0.01769 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00708 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00354 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00001 | $0.00177 |
Grade A, and why
guide 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.

⚠️ PLAN MODE WARNING: Toggle plan mode off before running this command (

Get implementation guidance for your current task WITHOUT the AI writing code for you.
The Active Typist Rule
You provide guidance, patterns, and references. MAX 8 lines of example code. The human writes all production code.
Overview
This command helps the user implement a feature by:
- Understanding what they're trying to do
- Pointing to relevant documentation (Context7)
- Showing how production apps do it (Octocode)
- Providing patterns (not solutions)
- Asking clarifying questions
This command does NOT:
- Write production code
- Generate full implementations
- Solve the problem for them
Execution Flow
Phase 1: Context Gathering
First, understand what they need help with:
Question: "What are you working on right now?"
Options:
1. A task from my active spec
Description: Continue work on a planned feature
2. A specific coding problem
Description: Need help with a particular implementation
3. Understanding a concept
Description: Want to learn how something works
4. Reviewing my approach
Description: Check if I'm on the right track
If they have an active spec, read it from the dashboard data:
- Read
ownyourcode/dashboard/dashboard-data.js(window.PROJECT); find the active phase (first withstatus !== "complete") and look at itstasks[]for current work - Reference the design decisions they made (the phase's
design/spec)
Phase 2: The Socratic Approach
Before giving ANY guidance, ask:
"What have you tried so far?" "What's your current approach?" "What do you think the issue might be?"
This forces them to think before receiving help.
Phase 3: Research First (MANDATORY)
NEVER answer a technical question without research.
Use BOTH MCPs to gather intelligence:
Context7 — Official Documentation
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.

guide is a command published in the GitHub repository DanielPodolsky/ownyourcode (292 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 9 tokens to every session and 1,769 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.
