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 | $0.00278 | $0.00278 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00139 | $0.00139 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00056 | $0.00056 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00028 | $0.00028 |
Grade A, and why
vara-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 8d 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
AGENTS.md
Purpose
This repository is the provisional product repo for a portable Vara Sails-builder skill pack. It owns builder-facing skill content, shared references, validation scripts, and installation surfaces for Codex first, with Claude and OpenClaw packaging added in-repo.
Working Rules
- Use
writing-skillsbefore creating or editing any skill inskills/. - Apply TDD to repository behavior: add or update tests before changing scripts, validation logic, or published skill contracts.
- Keep each skill directory flat and include
SKILL.md,assets/,references/, andscripts/. - Prefer shared repository references in
references/and shared templates inassets/; skill files may reference them via relative paths. - Do not embed machine-specific absolute paths in published docs or skills unless the file is an explicit local validation target.
- Treat the current public skill catalog as provisional until the sibling eval repo proves which candidate skills create real uplift.
- Keep the first builder path focused on standard Gear/Vara Sails, not Vara.eth-first workflows.
Verification
- Run
make verifybefore claiming the repo is ready. - Keep installation working through
scripts/install-codex-skills.sh. - Keep repository docs aligned with the product split: this repo owns skills and packaging; the sibling eval repo owns measurement.
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.
