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 | $0.00230 | $0.00230 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00092 | $0.00092 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00046 | $0.00046 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00023 | $0.00023 |
Grade A, and why
agent-harness-plugins workflow-git.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 8d 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
Git Commands in Workflows
For repo-wide conventions, see copilot-instructions.md and AGENTS.md at the repository root.
git worktree add --orphan -b <branch> <path>is correct. Since Git 2.42,--orphanis a flag that makes the new branch named by-bor-Ban unborn branch; it takes no argument of its own.git worktree add -hprints the synopsis[--orphan] [(-b | -B) <new-branch>] <path> [<commit-ish>]. Do not suggest dropping-bor moving the branch name after--orphan.- A push from the main checkout can publish a branch committed in a linked worktree. Worktrees share the repository's refs, so
git push origin refs/heads/<branch>:refs/heads/<branch>from the checkout that holds the persisted credentials is deliberate, not a mismatch.
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.
