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 | $0.05321 | $0.05321 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.02128 | $0.02128 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.01064 | $0.01064 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00532 | $0.00532 |
Grade A, and why
cordyceps copilot-instructions.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 11d 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

Copilot Instructions
Browser-Use Context Implementation for Chrome Extension
Core Requirements
- Environment: Chrome extension side panel with custom Cordyceps engine (Playwright-like but Chrome extension compatible)
- No Playwright Dependencies: Must use Cordyceps APIs and Chrome extension APIs exclusively
- CSP Compliance: No dynamic code execution, no eval(), no new Function()
- Extension Limitations: Work within browser security model and extension permissions
API Mapping Guidelines
1. Page Management
// Replace Playwright context/pages with Cordyceps BrowserWindow
// Playwright: context.newPage()
// Cordyceps: browserWindow.newPage()
// Chrome Extension: Use chrome.tabs API for tab management
2. Element Interaction
// Replace Playwright ElementHandle with Cordyceps Locator/ElementHandle
// Playwright: elementHandle.click()
// Cordyceps: locator.click() or elementHandle.click()
// Use existing Cordyceps element interaction patterns
3. Network Monitoring
// Replace Playwright network events with chrome.webRequest
// Playwright: page.on('request', handler)
// Chrome Extension: chrome.webRequest.onBeforeRequest.addListener()
// Implement _waitForStableNetwork using chrome.webRequest API
4. Screenshot Functionality
// Use Cordyceps screenshotter instead of Playwright
// Playwright: page.screenshot()
// Cordyceps: page.screenshot(progress, options)
// Already implemented in Cordyceps system
5. Cookie Management
// Replace Playwright cookies with chrome.cookies API
// Playwright: context.cookies()
// Chrome Extension: chrome.cookies.getAll()
// File operations must use chrome.storage or chrome.downloads
6. Navigation & History
// Use Cordyceps navigation methods
// Playwright: page.goBack()
// Cordyceps: page.goBack(options)
// Leverage existing navigation tracking in Cordyceps
Implementation Patterns
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.
