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 | $0.00465 | $0.00465 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00186 | $0.00186 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00093 | $0.00093 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00047 | $0.00047 |
Grade A, and why
claude-status-update CLAUDE.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.

Architecture
Skill-based design: A single /status-update command triggers a Python CLI that extracts signals from Claude Code session traces, then hands off to Claude for classification and summarization.
Flow
/status-update
→ Python CLI parses ~/.claude/projects/[current-project]/*.jsonl
→ Extracts user messages + AskUserQuestion responses from last 24h
→ Groups signals by session → writes to $PWD/.status-update/signals.txt
→ Claude reads signals, classifies as bug/feature/other, writes exec summary
→ Standup-ready text output to stdout
→ Scratch file deleted
Key Design Decisions
- Deterministic extraction in Python — no LLM involved in parsing session traces
- Claude handles only summarization and classification — keeps output reliable
- Scratch file is ephemeral — written to
$PWD/.status-update/signals.txt, deleted after use - Scope is 24 hours, current project only

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.

claude-status-update CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository AlexanderBZ/claude-status-update (5 stars, last pushed 14d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 465 tokens to every session, about $0.0019 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 2026-08-31.
