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 | $0.02353 | $0.02353 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00941 | $0.00941 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00471 | $0.00471 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00235 | $0.00235 |
Grade A, and why
goldenpipe 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.
This is a copy
88% identical to goldenpipe copilot-instructions.md — 27 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts

Architecture
goldenpipe/pipeline.py-- Pipeline class, run() function. ONLY file that imports from tools.goldenpipe/decisions.py-- Adaptive logic (decide_flow, decide_match). NO tool imports. Testable independently.goldenpipe/cli/main.py-- Typer CLI- Tools imported with try/except ImportError guards (HAS_CHECK, HAS_FLOW, HAS_MATCH)
- Data flows as Polars DataFrames in memory between stages
Pipeline Flow
load_file -> GoldenCheck.scan_file(path) -> decide_flow(findings)
-> if fixable: GoldenFlow.transform_df(df) -> updated df
-> decide_match(findings, row_count, strategy_override)
-> GoldenMatch.dedupe_df(df) or AgentSession.deduplicate(path)
-> PipeResult
Testing
pytest --tb=shortfrom project root- test_decisions.py: no tool deps, tests pure decision logic
- test_pipeline.py: requires goldencheck, goldenflow, goldenmatch installed
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.
