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 | $0.03703 | $0.03703 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.01481 | $0.01481 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00741 | $0.00741 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00370 | $0.00370 |
Grade A, and why
voicelayer 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 2d 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 — 232 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
VoiceLayer
VoiceLayer is how I talk to my agents and how they talk back. I've been dictating through VoiceBar
and F5 for a long time and that part does its job well. Asking is newer — I've been leaning on
voice_ask heavily since late July 2026, gaining more and more experience with it, and it's become
the thing that stops me losing answers and stops me getting walls of text I skim without actually
understanding. I keep all this — rather than just paying for Wispr Flow — for three reasons: I can
control it exactly how I want, the notch app we built beats anything that blocks my screen, and it's
local-first. It hasn't replaced Wispr Flow, because Wispr Flow runs on my iPhone and this
unfortunately doesn't, so this is what I use at my desk or pacing around the room. And there's still
real work here: the teleprompter and the speech aren't synced at all — I can't click a word to jump
back or scrub to a moment, so I end up waiting out the audio and reading the text from the MCP
instead. I'm looking for things like that that would complete the UX, so other people installing
this app can use it — or help, if they ever try to.
What I care about most
That what comes out is what I actually said. Today it drifts three ways — words get added that I never said, a sentence sometimes repeats back-to-back in a long transcript, and words I did say just vanish. All of it needs fixing — it isn't either/or. We fixed one of these by trimming and it cut real tails off my sentences. Don't fix it that way again — a fix that loses my words is worse than the bug.
Don't cut me off mid-thought. If I'm still talking there's no reason to time out — wait for me to think. Time out on silence, not on me. And every recording is kept — cancelled, timed out, all of them.
I want to be able to interrupt you mid-question and have you hear me. Barge-in was built and merged in May and then never wired into the live ask path — before anyone connects it, test whether that code is actually good enough to keep.
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.
