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 | $0.02153 | $0.02153 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00861 | $0.00861 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00431 | $0.00431 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00215 | $0.00215 |
Grade A, and why
offload-harness 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 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 128 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md
Vendor-neutral entry point for any AI coding agent working in this repository. (Claude Code also
auto-loads CLAUDE.md, which carries the same orientation in more detail.)
What this repo is
offload-harness — a local-first Go harness that delegates short-context, low-judgment work
(summarize / classify / extract / triage, plus vision / OCR / transcription / media generation) to a
free Gemma-4 cascade served by llama.cpp. It ships as a CLI, an MCP server (local-offload),
and an optional local coding agent (local-agent). It never calls a cloud model; on low
confidence it returns a structured defer so the calling agent does that task itself.
Documentation map
Detailed documentation lives in docs/. This file only routes you there.
docs/README.md— the index. Start here.docs/systems/— how each part of the harness works (offload pipeline, coding agent, MCP server, media generation, fleet node, installer, accelerators).docs/tiers/— one page per hardware tier (GENERATED fromsetup/templates/profiles.jsonbycmd/gentiers; rungo generate ./...after changing the profile table) plus checked-in capability reports from real machines.docs/flows/— behavior that crosses systems (cascade escalation and defer, run-graph manifest satisfaction, fleet job lifecycle, zero-warm generation).docs/systems/printed-clis.md— thetools/printed CLIs: what they are, why they are separate Go modules, and the regenerate/re-vendor cycle.docs/systems/cache-server.md— the optional second-device KV tier (kv_cache_server): off by default, capacity at parity cost, the pipeline-layout constraint.docs/systems/composite-tier.md— a box that is several hardware tiers at once (ADR 0052): its device layers, the one placement table, the display-card guards that fail closed, and theplacedblock every result carries.docs/systems/fleet-overview.md—fleet-ui/top/fleet-smoke: the read-only operator page on the delegator, its poller, and the jobs/errors feeds.docs/systems/node-swap.md—node-swap: the reusable Windows fleet-node binary/render-tree swap tool (hash verify, idle wait, backup+rename, restart, verify, automatic rollback) and its detached, SSH-drop-proof launcher.docs/systems/update.md—update: the version-pin-free engine updater (publisher digest, generations behind the live path, rollback, floors insetup/floors.json,--repoint).docs/systems/browse-lane.md— the opt-in browse lane (offload_browse/ agentbrowse): sidecar protocol, deny-list, doors, and what leaves the machine (ADR 0060).docs/systems/opencode-integration.md— the harness inside opencode: MCP registration, rules parity, and theopencode-local-offloadplugin.docs/systems/leak-gate.md— the privacy gate: write machine, person and brand names as node letters and role phrases (docs/STYLE.md), never the real name; the test fails the build on a hit and there is no allow list.docs/architecture/decisions/— Architecture Decision Records. OnlyAcceptedstatus is current guidance.docs/glossary.md— terms with a specific meaning here (Defer, Tier, Zero-Warm, Node Manifest, …).
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.
