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 | $0.00220 | $0.00220 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00110 | $0.00110 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00044 | $0.00044 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00022 | $0.00022 |
Grade A, and why
EGC dev-mode.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.
What it actually says
Development Mode
Use this context when actively implementing features or writing code.
Focus Areas
- Write clean, maintainable code
- Follow TDD workflow when appropriate
- Implement incrementally with frequent testing
- Consider edge cases and error handling
- Document complex logic inline
Workflow
- Understand requirements thoroughly
- Plan implementation approach
- Write tests first (when using TDD)
- Implement minimal working solution
- Refactor for clarity and maintainability
- Verify all tests pass
Code Quality
- Prioritize readability over cleverness
- Keep functions small and focused
- Use meaningful variable and function names
- Add comments for non-obvious logic
- Follow project coding standards
Testing
- Write unit tests for business logic
- Test edge cases and error conditions
- Ensure tests are fast and reliable
- Use descriptive test names
Invocation
Use #dev-mode to activate this context when starting development work.
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.

EGC dev-mode.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository Fmarzochi/EGC (48 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 220 tokens to every session, about $0.0011 per session on Opus 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 2026-09-06.
