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 | $0.00463 | $0.00463 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00185 | $0.00185 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00093 | $0.00093 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00046 | $0.00046 |
Grade A, and why
forge 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 1mo 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.
What it actually says
This project uses Forge. The methodology below is imported from a local file regenerated by
forge upgrade. New collaborator? Install Forge with:npm install -g @firatcand/forge forge upgradeFirst time opening this repo in Claude Code? You'll see a one-time prompt asking permission to load
.forge/CONTEXT.md. Accept it — without that approval, Claude Code silently skips the import and the methodology context won't be available.
@.forge/CONTEXT.md
The import below pulls in THIS project's spec — the synthesized BRIEF/PRD/SPEC (the "what", vs. the methodology "how" above). It is committed and generated by
/ingest-spec(a stub until you run it), so it travels with the repo.
@spec/CONTEXT.md

Note: This is the forge repo itself. Iterating on this repo means iterating on the framework — every change ships to
npm publish @firatcand/forgeand lands on adopter machines vianpx @firatcand/forge. Treat all changes as public-API.

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.

forge CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository firatcand/forge (13 stars, last pushed 3mo ago), licensed MIT.
