ABCA is a sample AWS platform that lets coding agents take repository tasks, work in isolated cloud environments, run checks, and open pull requests without continuous human interaction. It is for teams running asynchronous, repository-focused software work through sources such as Slack, issue trackers, command-line tools, or webhooks. The catalogue add-ons support operating and navigating this background-agent platform.

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 | $0.02479 | $0.02479 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00992 | $0.00992 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00496 | $0.00496 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00248 | $0.00248 |
Grade A, and why
sample-autonomous-cloud-coding-agents 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 today.
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 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.
