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 | $0.10434 | $0.10434 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.04174 | $0.04174 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.02087 | $0.02087 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.01043 | $0.01043 |
Grade B, and why
unitares CLAUDE.md scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 yesterday.
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.

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 421 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
CLAUDE.md — unitares
Bootstrap for Claude Code sessions in this repo. Content below the SHARED CONTRACT markers is kept byte-identical with AGENTS.md — CI (scripts/dev/check-shared-contract.sh) enforces parity. Edit shared rules in both files; edit the Claude preamble here only.
The installable Codex/Claude adapter bundle is canonical in the companion unitares-governance-plugin repo. This file only governs how Claude Code should behave while working directly inside the unitares server repo.
Claude-specific wiring
Claude Code runs through a plugin-style harness. The hook lifecycle is owned by the unitares-governance-plugin repo (canonical for the adapter bundle); this repo vendors no hook chain of its own. When CLAUDE.md or AGENTS.md describes hook behavior, the plugin is the source of truth.
Three layers fire on Claude lifecycle events, and it matters which one produced what you are looking at:
- Plugin hooks —
hooks/session-start,hooks/post-edit,hooks/post-stop. The per-turn check-in is the plugin'spost-stop, which submitsepistemic_class="substrate_interpretation"for both Claude and Codex: a substrate reading of turn shape, not an agent-authored report. - User-level hooks under
~/.claude/hooks/, wired in~/.claude/settings.json. They are machine-local and differ per operator. On a host that wires a Watcher hook, Watcher findings at session start or in a chime block come from this chain, not from the plugin'spost-edit. - A file on disk under
hooks/is not evidence that it runs. Retired hooks stay on disk; checksettings.jsonbefore assuming a user-level hook is live.
To close a Watcher finding (the agent itself lives in this repo):
python3 agents/watcher/agent.py --resolve <fingerprint> # confirmed bug, fixed
python3 agents/watcher/agent.py --dismiss <fingerprint> # false positive
Reference fingerprints in the commit message — Watcher's audit trail lives in commits, not in tracked files (data/watcher/ is gitignored).
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.

unitares CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository cirwel/unitares (6 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 10,434 tokens to every session, about $0.0417 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (reads agent configuration directories).
