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 | $0.00180 | $0.00180 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00072 | $0.00072 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00036 | $0.00036 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00018 |
Grade A, and why
ropey 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.
What it actually says
Agent skills
Issue tracker
Issues tracked as GitHub Issues on andrewesweet/ropey via the gh CLI. See docs/agents/issue-tracker.md.
Triage labels
Five canonical roles use their default label strings (needs-triage, needs-info, ready-for-agent, ready-for-human, wontfix). See docs/agents/triage-labels.md.
Domain docs
Single-context: one CONTEXT.md + docs/adr/ at repo root. See docs/agents/domain.md.
Documentation kept current
The README's install and catalogue sections are part of the distribution contract (PRD "Distribution & human documentation"): update them in the same change whenever a phase lands, a tool is added/renamed, or an install mechanism changes.
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.
