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 | $0.12665 | $0.12665 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.05066 | $0.05066 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.02533 | $0.02533 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.01266 | $0.01266 |
Grade A, and why
bomly-cli 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 11d 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 — 584 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md
Guidance for AI agents working in this repository. This is the only guidance
file: Claude Code, Codex and the other agents read it directly, and
TestGuidanceLivesInAgentsMD fails if a CLAUDE.md or CLAUDE.local.md
appears beside it, because either one hides this file from Claude Code.
Bomly is a customer-facing, security-sensitive CLI for dependency intelligence. Audience: professional developers, security managers, and CI workflows. Expect high standards: correct behavior, clear output, full logging, and no panics.
This is the main public repository for the Bomly CLI: the engine, auditors, and native detectors (internal/*), the cmd/bomly entry point, user documentation (docs/), release automation, install scripts, the npm MCP wrapper, and the binary-driven smoke test suite. Two kinds of modules live outside this repository:
github.com/bomly-dev/bomly-sdk(public, separate repo): the contract both built-in components and external managed plugins implement — domain types, plugin kinds, validation, support metadata, and the shared helper subpackages (system,filecache,logkit,detectorkit,matcherkit,testkit), plus the SBOM codec (sbom) and the graph reads every renderer and exporter shares (graphview). It has its own tests and releases; this repo pins released versions. Any reference tosdk.<Type>below means that module. Plugin authors start there, withdocs/PLUGINS.md,docs/plugins/, and the public plugin template repo.github.com/bomly-dev/bomly-plugin-*(public, one repo per component): external-integration components consumed as ordinary pinned Go modules — the four reachability analyzers (govulncheck,jsreach,pyreach,jvmreach), theosv/depsdev-license/scorecard/grypematchers, and thesyftdetector. Their implementations are NOT underinternal/; changes to them happen in their repos, and Dependabot bumps the pins here. Auditors and all other detectors are Bomly's own logic and stay in this repository.
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.
