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 | $0.01693 | $0.01693 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00677 | $0.00677 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00339 | $0.00339 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00169 | $0.00169 |
Grade A, and why
citekick 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 245 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md
Initial Exploration
Before writing any code, explore the project structure and understand the conventions:
Read First (Priority Order)
pyproject.toml— Single source of truth for all configurationREADME.md— Project overview and setup instructionsAGENTS.md— Agent-specific instructions if it exists
Extract Key Configuration
From pyproject.toml, identify:
| Setting | Location |
|---|---|
| Package name | [project].name |
| Python version | [project].requires-python |
| Source directory | [tool.hatch.build.targets.wheel] |
| Test directory | [tool.pytest.ini_options].testpaths |
| Max line length | [tool.ruff].line-length |
| Mypy config | [tool.mypy] |
Common Patterns to Match
- Import style and organization
- Type annotation conventions
- Naming conventions (modules, classes, functions)
- Error handling patterns
- Documentation approach
Toolchain Standard
Standard development commands (verify in pyproject.toml):
hatch fmt— Format + lint (ruff)hatch test— Run tests (pytest)hatch run typing— Type check (mypy)hatch run release— fmt + typing + test
Tool Purposes
Ask human to install those tools if they are not installed yet.
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
| hatch | Project and environment management |
| uv | Fast dependency resolution |
| ruff | Linting and formatting |
| mypy | Static type checking |
| pytest | Test execution |
Behavioral Guidelines
Think Before Coding
- State assumptions explicitly. If uncertain, ask.
- If multiple interpretations exist, present them — don't pick silently.
- If a simpler approach exists, say so.
- If something is unclear, stop and ask.
Simplicity First
- No features beyond what was asked.
- No abstractions for single-use code.
- No "flexibility" that wasn't requested.
- If you write 200 lines and it could be 50, rewrite it.
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.

citekick AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository ChenchaoZhao/citekick (0 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,693 tokens to every session, about $0.0068 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
