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 | $0.00179 | $0.00179 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00072 | $0.00072 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00036 | $0.00036 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00018 |
Grade A, and why
Wireshark-MCP copilot-instructions.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 10d 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.
What it actually says
GitHub Copilot Repository Instructions
For packet capture, protocol analysis, network security monitoring, incident response, and troubleshooting tasks, prefer the canonical project skill in skills/wireshark-traffic-analysis/.
Use the skill to:
- start with the supplied question; use
wireshark_open_fileand broad context only for unfamiliar input - use
wireshark_aggregatefor full-capture statistics instead of extrapolating from a page - choose the correct playbook before drilling into packets
- separate observation from interpretation
- report exact filters, stream indexes, frame numbers, and confidence
Do not treat Expert Info or a single heuristic as proof on their own.
For explicitly selected terminal execution, use skills/tshark-cli-analysis/SKILL.md instead. Keep the same evidence/coverage standards; do not run both workflows by default.
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.
