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 | $0.02004 | $0.02004 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00802 | $0.00802 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00401 | $0.00401 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00200 | $0.00200 |
Grade A, and why
pymapdl 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 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 227 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Environment
Use uv for everything. Fall back to the repository .venv only if uv fails.
uv sync --all-extras # install dependencies
uv run pytest # run tests
uv run pre-commit install # install hooks (once)
uv run pre-commit run --all-files
Supported Python: 3.10 - 3.14.
Hard constraints
- Never modify anything under
src/ansys/mapdl/core/_commands/. To change the behavior of a MAPDL command, override it in_MapdlCommandExtendedinsrc/ansys/mapdl/core/mapdl_extended.py. - Never break backward compatibility. Deprecate instead, with a warning and a removal version.
- Never add files to
doc/changelog.d/. Changelog fragments are generated automatically by CI/CD when the pull request is opened. - Never commit secrets, credentials, or license server details.
- Pre-commit must pass before every commit. It is mandatory and runs
black,isort,flake8,mypy,codespell,numpydoc-validation,bandit, license headers, and more.
Code style
- PEP 8, enforced by
blackandisort(profile = "black"). - Type hints on new public APIs.

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.

pymapdl AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository ansys/pymapdl (525 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 2,004 tokens to every session, about $0.0080 per session on Opus 5.5. 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.
