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 | $0.00241 | $0.00241 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00096 | $0.00096 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00048 | $0.00048 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00024 | $0.00024 |
Grade A, and why
coding-posture 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 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.
What it actually says
Coding Posture
- The product is one file:
skills/coding-posture/SKILL.md. No engine, no selection code. - Modes are procedural checklists, not personas. Keep them aimed at situations models reliably get wrong.
- A mode never overrides user/project/safety instructions.
- Keep
SKILL.mdscannable: short checklists, plain mode names, no persona theatrics. Enrich modes only with practices that have evidence behind them.
Releasing
Bump the version in all four markers together, then tag vX.Y.Z:
package.json→version.claude-plugin/plugin.json→version.claude-plugin/marketplace.json→metadata.version,plugins[0].version, and top-levelversion.codex-plugin/plugin.json→version
The Claude plugin only updates for installed users when version changes, so it must move on every release.
Local setup
Enable the bundled secret-scan hooks once per clone: git config --local core.hooksPath scripts/git-hooks (requires gitleaks).
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.
