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 | $0.00016 | $0.03909 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.01564 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00782 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00002 | $0.00391 |
Grade B, and why
update-project scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.
Reads agent configuration directoriesmediumAgent snooping
.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Update Starter Kit Project
Update an existing starter-kit project with the latest commands, hooks, skills, and rules from the current starter kit source. Smart merge — replaces starter kit files with newer versions while preserving any custom files the user created themselves.
Arguments: $ARGUMENTS
Step 0 — Resolve Source (Starter Kit)
Find the starter kit source directory:
- If CWD has BOTH
claude-mastery-project.confAND.claude/commands/new-project.md→ use CWD as$SOURCE - Else read
~/.claude/starter-kit-source-path→ verify it still has both files - Else ask via AskUserQuestion: "Where is the starter kit cloned?" with a text input
Store as $SOURCE.
Step 1 — Registry Picker (Select Target)
-
Read
~/.claude/starter-kit-projects.json- If file doesn't exist or empty → error: "No projects found. Use
/new-projectto create one first." - If file is invalid JSON → error: "Project registry is corrupted. Check
~/.claude/starter-kit-projects.json."
- If file doesn't exist or empty → error: "No projects found. Use
-
Filter to projects whose
pathdirectory still exists on disk -
If no valid projects remain → error: "No registered projects found on disk. Use
/new-projectto create one." -
Display list with AskUserQuestion:
- "Which project do you want to update?"
- Options: up to 4 most recent projects (by
createdAt), each showing:name — language/framework — path - If more than 4: the 4th option should be "Other (type a path)"
-
Store selected path as
$TARGET
Validations (all must pass — stop with clear error if any fail)
$TARGETdirectory exists → if not: "Directory not found: $TARGET"$TARGETis a git repo → run:git -C "$TARGET" rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree 2>/dev/null- If not a git repo: "This project must be a git repo. Run
git init && git commit --allow-empty -m 'init'first."
- If not a git repo: "This project must be a git repo. Run
$TARGETis NOT the starter kit itself (compare resolved paths of$SOURCEand$TARGET)- If same: "Cannot update the starter kit itself."
$TARGETis registered in~/.claude/starter-kit-projects.json- If not registered: "This project isn't in the registry. Use
/convert-project-to-starter-kitinstead."
- If not registered: "This project isn't in the registry. Use
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.
