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 | $0.06909 | $0.06909 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.02764 | $0.02764 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.01382 | $0.01382 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00691 | $0.00691 |
Grade A, and why
cold-frame CLAUDE.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.

CLAUDE.md — Coldframe (cold-frame)
Operating manual for coding this repo. Rules, not prose. Follow exactly. Coldframe = a local-first, ownable LLM-agent memory layer. One SQLite file holds facts + BM25 + vectors + edges + versions + provenance. Works offline, no key, no server. The moat = token-budget packer + forgetting/consolidation + deterministic conflict resolution, built by hand and proven by deterministic mock-LLM tests (the discipline A-MEM/langmem skipped).
Status — where this repo is
P1–P6 are built (TDD, §2): the offline add→search→conflict/freshness→budget→forgetting/consolidation→procedural→self-edit engine works, with CLI + MCP stdio server + Claude Code plugin + local web UI. ~420 deterministic tests green on a 3.12/3.13 CI matrix (ruff + mypy --strict + pytest + a built-wheel install smoke + a frontend vue-tsc/build/codegen-drift job). The auto-memory loop (recall + capture) is live-verified against real Claude Code (headless claude -p). Hardened by multi-agent review rounds: a bug+quality audit (17 findings — timestamp-width/as_of, jobs dedup-collision recovery, consolidation atomicity, compaction-rescan resurrection, …), and an independent review of the post-audit features (edge channel / FADING_EMBER / PII) that caught 2 critical leaks (edge surfacing quarantined/cross-scope notes; PII left in FTS-indexed keywords/context) — all fixed + CI-verified.
NOT done — genuine, known gaps (don't claim otherwise): privacy/security per D25 is PARTIAL — obvious secrets BLOCKed pre-disk; PII redaction (email/phone/card/ssn) built but OPT-IN (Memory(pii_redact=…) / add --redact-pii); at-rest encryption was REMOVED (ADR-D29, 2026-07-03, reverses D27's "keep dormant" — ~0 value for a local single-user file; keep ~/.cold-frame/memory.db on an OS-encrypted disk instead). The admission path is a deterministic secret-BLOCK only (WriteCore._admission_block = scan_secret; zero LLM calls). The old LOCAL-only LLM tiebreak for the ambiguous [4.0,4.5) band was REMOVED (ADR-I7-cut, 2026-07-01): dead in prod (no local LLM ships — ClaudeCliLLM is remote) + it fail-closed-BLOCKed legit facts carrying a high-entropy token. assert_local_for/LOCAL_ONLY_TASKS/ADMISSION_TIEBREAK are gone; PolicyError stays as a hierarchy/MCP-map seam. The same ADR's v1 surface trim (D27) also landed: the search-time edge recall channel, derive_tags, and the CLI/MCP rerank surface were CUT (edge rows, programmatic rerank=True, as_of rewind, and the Vue UI dashboard were KEPT and shipped). Now BUILT: configurable confidence-gate + opt-in require_consent hold (Memory(confidence_gate=…, require_consent=…), centralized in WriteCore._consent_gate → held for Triage approval); idempotent event-log replay import (cold-frame import … --events / Memory.import_events, LWW-by-HLC, I17). The remote-extraction exposure is NARROWED: write/extract scans raw chat and falls back to LOCAL naive extraction when an obvious secret / ambiguous span is present, so it never reaches a remote extractor (residual: a non-pattern secret the deterministic scan misses). Still NOT built (deferred v1.1/hosted): cross-device conflict resolution beyond last-writer-wins. (At-rest encryption + per-note crypto-shred are not deferred but REMOVED — ADR-D29.) Distribution is via a Homebrew tap + GitHub Release binaries, NOT PyPI (ADR-D28; D19 name locked). Never silently diverge from a contract — change it with an ADR in docs/decisions.md.
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.

cold-frame CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository coldzero94/cold-frame (0 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 6,909 tokens to every session, about $0.0276 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.
