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 | $0.03928 | $0.03928 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.01571 | $0.01571 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00786 | $0.00786 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00393 | $0.00393 |
Grade A, and why
Oxide-Agent AGENTS.md 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 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.
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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 197 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Oxide Agent
Oxide Agent is a Telegram bot with Agent Mode on top of multiple LLM providers. It handles text, voice, images, documents, topic-scoped memory, sandbox tasks, a web console (Life Mode), and a manager control plane.
Stack: Rust 2024 edition, teloxide, SQLx/Postgres durable storage, Leptos, native integrations with OpenRouter, Anthropic Messages (generic, covers MiniMax), OpenAI-Base (covers ZAI/Mistral/custom), ChatGPT/Codex OAuth, and OpenCode Go/Zen. Gemini-family models are accessed through OpenRouter routes, not a direct Google Gemini provider.
Branch
Default branch: main.
Scale and decision principles
- Personal use, up to 2-3 people; target load up to 5 RPS.
- No sharding, HA, extra queues, multi-layer abstractions, or heavy observability without proven need.
- Optimize only after a real bottleneck; if a fix leaves a class of problems open, redesign the root cause rather than preserve a broken architecture.
Implementation bias
- Smallest fundamentally correct change; preserve architecture only when it is sound.
- Boring, explicit, locally understandable code over generic frameworks.
- No new crates, services, queues, caches, storage backends, protocols, or abstraction layers unless clearly required.
- Add abstraction only after real duplication or multiple call sites exist.
- Document known limitations instead of building generalized designs for hypothetical needs.

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.
