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 | $0.06960 | $0.06960 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.02784 | $0.02784 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.01392 | $0.01392 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00696 | $0.00696 |
Grade A, and why
ezrag 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.

EzRAG - Obsidian Plugin for Semantic Search via Google Gemini
Quick Start for Developers
New to this codebase? Start here:
-
Read this file for high-level overview and module guide
-
Read ARCHITECTURE.md for detailed design, data models, and implementation notes
-

Critical concepts to understand:
- Runner pattern: Only one machine indexes per vault
- Hot path optimization: No remote checks during file changes
- Queue persistence: Uploads survive restarts
- Smart reconciliation: Rebuild doesn't create duplicates
What is EzRAG?
EzRAG is an Obsidian plugin that indexes your notes into Google Gemini's File Search API, enabling semantic search and AI-powered chat over your vault. Key features:
- Automatic Indexing: Continuously syncs selected notes to Gemini as you edit
- Smart Change Detection: Uses content hashing to avoid redundant uploads
- Multi-Device Support: "Runner" pattern designates one machine to handle indexing
- Chat Interface: Query your notes using natural language
- MCP Server (planned): External tools can query your vault via Model Context Protocol
How It Works
The Runner Pattern (Critical Concept)
In multi-device setups (laptop + desktop), only one machine (the "runner") handles indexing:
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.
