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 | $0.01750 | $0.01750 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00700 | $0.00700 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00350 | $0.00350 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00175 | $0.00175 |
Grade A, and why
sounding 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 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 196 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
CLAUDE.md
Operating instructions for this repository. Read this before doing anything.
Identity
Everything public in this repo belongs to alinotfound.
- English only. No Persian anywhere — code, comments, commits, issues, releases, docs. Not in a commit message, not in a TODO.
- No real name. Never add one to a file, a commit author line, a changelog, a README, or an issue. If a config or credential surfaces one, stop and say so rather than committing it.
- The mark is
·)))and it belongs in the README footer and the console signature. Nowhere else. It is a signature, not decoration.
What this project is
sounding audits agent instructions — MCP servers, Agent Skills, and prompts —
for structural problems, scores them with a visible formula, writes the
corrections, and pins them so drift is caught.
The product is trustworthiness. Every decision follows from that:
- A finding without a reference is an opinion. This tool does not ship opinions.
- A score whose formula is hidden is a vibe. The formula is always printed.
- Nothing is written to disk without being shown first.
- Generated text that still needs a human says
TODOinside itself. - The tool states plainly what it does not check.
If a change makes the tool more impressive but less honest, it is the wrong change. Say so instead of making it.
Hard rules
These need explicit approval from the user, every time. Never assume it.
git push --forceor--force-with-leaseonmain- Deleting or renaming a repository, or changing its visibility
- Publishing to PyPI, npm, or any registry
- Rewriting history:
rebaseon pushed commits,filter-branch, amending a pushed commit - Adding a dependency — this package has zero and that is a feature
- Anything touching credentials, tokens, or
security.txtcontact details
Never, under any circumstances:
- Commit a secret, a token, an API key, or a
.envwith real values - Invent numbers. No download counts, no user counts, no benchmark results that were not actually measured. If a number appears in public text, it must be reproducible by running something in this repo.
- Add a badge for something that does not exist
- Write "trusted by" or testimonials
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.

sounding CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository alinotfoundbtw/sounding (4 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT.
