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 | $0.00565 | $0.00565 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00282 | $0.00282 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00113 | $0.00113 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00056 | $0.00056 |
Grade A, and why
it-contractors-skills GEMINI.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
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 61 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
GEMINI.md - Gemini adapter for it-contractors-skills
This is Gemini-facing repository guidance for it-contractors-skills.
The canonical workflows live in skills/*/SKILL.md. Treat those files as platform-neutral source material. Do not rewrite them to depend on Gemini, Codex, Claude, ChatGPT, or any other provider unless the change is limited to a platform adapter document.
Gemini-specific setup notes belong in this file or in docs/platforms/gemini.md, not inside canonical skill workflows.
Working rules
- Keep the repository client-facing, IT-contractor-specific, and preparation-oriented.
- Preserve the boundary between organization and advice.
- Do not make final tax, legal, deductibility, PSB, GST/HST, or employment-status conclusions.
- Use the phrase from the relevant skill when a request falls outside scope: "That is outside what this workflow covers. It is a question for a CPA before you file."
- Do not ask users for SINs, business numbers, bank account numbers, account login details, or full client names.
- Use American spelling and avoid em dashes.
- Keep
SKILL.mdinstructions operational. Write to the agent, not to the end user.
Gemini usage
When a user asks to use this repository in Gemini:
- Match the request to the relevant
skills/*/SKILL.mdfrontmatter description. - Read the selected
SKILL.md. - Read only the reference files named in that skill's resource map when they are needed.
- Follow the workflow and output rules in the skill.
- Route to another skill only when the current skill explicitly identifies that downstream need.
If automatic skill discovery is not available, use repo-read mode. The user can ask Gemini to follow a named file, such as:
Use skills/collecting-tax-documents/SKILL.md to organize my 2025 contractor tax documents.
Routing pattern
For broad preparation requests, start with one of:
collecting-tax-documentsidentifying-income-sourcesidentifying-expense-categories
For focused issues, use the narrowest relevant skill.
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.

it-contractors-skills GEMINI.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository AlexTeplovCPA/it-contractors-skills (2 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 565 tokens to every session, about $0.0028 per session on Opus 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.
