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 | $0.00336 | $0.00336 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00134 | $0.00134 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00067 | $0.00067 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00034 | $0.00034 |
Grade A, and why
meta-skills 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 5d 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
Project context
Before project work, read the PROGRESS snapshot and STRUCTURE's
"Read before changing" section. Read the other records when the task needs
them. Use the horsemen skill to update them.
- VISION.md: draft direction, assumptions, and owner questions
- BRAIN.md: knowledge locations, save rules, and access limits
- PROGRESS.md: current state, gates, and next steps
- STRUCTURE.md: package map and required reading
Package rules
- This repository holds portable skills and plugin metadata. Hosts supply tools, permissions, identity, memory, and continuity. No runtime is required.
- Preserve each skill's contract. The default skill uses the smallest relevant capability set. Standalone outcome skills remain usable on their own.
- Use the customer's brand. Never invent capabilities, proof, metrics, or consent.
- Keep consequential actions and persistence behind the approval gates in PROGRESS.md. If the host cannot enforce approval, return a draft.
- A skill's frontmatter version is authoritative. Keep VERSIONS.md in sync without forcing skill versions to equal the package version.
- Keep private data, identifiers, account emails, and machine paths out of this public repository. Follow BRAIN.md.
- Existing installation instructions are not proof of a tested install. Record the evidence and its original date when you report delivery.
Inherited higher-priority instructions continue to apply.
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.
