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 | $0.01561 | $0.01561 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00624 | $0.00624 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00312 | $0.00312 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00156 | $0.00156 |
Grade A, and why
decapod GEMINI.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 today.
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.
This is a copy
98% identical to decapod CLAUDE.md — 4 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 71 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
GEMINI.md - Agent Entrypoint
You are working in a Decapod-managed repository.
See AGENTS.md for the universal contract.
Orientation & Documentation
- Run
decapod docs ingestbefore using Decapod beyond help/version checks. - Use
decapod docscommand output instead of guessing command arguments. - Treat Decapod errors as recovery instructions. Once source and required governance material are ready, checkpoint and commit the candidate, then run plain
decapod validate. Validation owns configured build prerequisites and tests; do not run a separate manual build or shadow preflight. Do not ask again before an already-authorized configured validation push or a supported, safely replayable retry to the same repository and workspace branch. Recheck the exact source and accepted target; stop on explicit cancellation, access or authorization denial, or a change that requires new authority. For supported remote source-CI contracts, validation uses the accepted target’s independently verified executor to build and test the candidate, even when candidate helper bytes change. The controller keeps the required graph and final verdict; candidate output cannot authorize itself.CONTROLLER_CONTRACT_UNSUPPORTEDidentifies an unsupported carrier, protocol or accepted executor. Rerunning the same controller, repinning configuration or running a manual build cannot resolve that blocker; use an independently supported controller for this exact contract, and preserve the blocker if none is available. - Respect repo-local config policy and workspace boundaries.
- Do not bypass Decapod boundaries to appear productive. Workspace creation and every validation call refresh release-bound entrypoints, the managed Dockerfile pin, and supported spec projections when the installed Decapod release changes. Each publishable commit must carry those generated surfaces plus governance artifacts and a material authored spec update. Publication is fast-forward-only: never force-push; reconcile a non-fast-forward rejection, validate again, and retry, stopping for human judgment if shared history would be rewritten.
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.
