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 | $0.01517 | $0.01517 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00758 | $0.00758 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00303 | $0.00303 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00152 | $0.00152 |
Grade A, and why
claude-cto-team 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 9d 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.

Project Overview
This repository implements a "CTO Team" system for Claude Code - a set of three specialized subagents that work together to provide strategic technical leadership, architecture design, and ruthless validation of plans and decisions.
Agent System Architecture
The CTO Team operates as a three-agent system with clear role separation:
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ cto-orchestrator │
│ (Coordinator & Task Router) │
│ Clarifies requirements, challenges vagueness, routes work │
└─────────────────────┬───────────────────────┬───────────────────┘
│ │
▼ ▼
┌─────────────────────────────────┐ ┌─────────────────────────────┐
│ cto-architect │ │ strategic-cto-mentor │
│ (Forward-Looking Designer) │ │ (Ruthless Validator) │
│ Designs systems & roadmaps │ │ Challenges & stress-tests │
└─────────────────────────────────┘ └─────────────────────────────┘
Agents
cto-orchestrator
Role: Coordinator and intelligent task router Model: Sonnet (fast, efficient)
The orchestrator is the entry point for complex technical requests. It:
- Challenges vague requirements ("AI-powered" → what problem exactly?)
- Clarifies business goals and constraints before delegating
- Routes to design (cto-architect) or validation (strategic-cto-mentor)
- Coordinates multi-agent workflows for complex projects
- Synthesizes outputs from multiple agents
When to use: Vague requirements, multi-domain projects, unclear where to start
cto-architect
Role: Forward-looking system designer Model: Opus (comprehensive, thorough)
The architect designs new systems from scratch. Expertise includes:
- Full-stack architecture (React, Node.js, mobile, microservices)
- ML/AI integration (CV pipelines, model serving, RAG systems)
- Cloud infrastructure (Kubernetes, AWS/GCP, auto-scaling)
- Technology stack selection with explicit trade-off analysis
- Phased implementation roadmaps with validation checkpoints
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-cto-team CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository alirezarezvani/claude-cto-team (113 stars, last pushed 8mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,517 tokens to every session, about $0.0076 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 2026-08-30.
