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 | $0.00380 | $0.00380 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00152 | $0.00152 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00076 | $0.00076 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00038 | $0.00038 |
Grade A, and why
configure-agents 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 23d 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
Agent instructions for @gleanwork/configure-agents — the CLI that scaffolds and drift-checks the gleanwork agent baseline (AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, skills/) across library and SDK repos.
Development
- Install:
npm install - Build:
npm run build(compilessrc/tobuild/, then copies templates) - Test:
npm test(vitest) - Checks:
npm run lint,npm run lint:ts,npm run format - Run locally:
npm run go -- init/npm run go -- check, ornode build/index.js <command>after a build
This is an ESM project with module: nodenext, so relative imports use .js extensions even though the files are .ts.
The review module (configure-agents review) lives in src/review/. Its permission presets and Codex compiler in src/review/permissions.ts match the runtime copy in the scalvert agent plugin. test/fixtures/presets.json and test/fixtures/draft-pr.rules pin that shared contract, so change both repos together.
The single source of truth for the baseline is src/baseline/spec.ts. init writes the baseline and check enforces it from the same lists — change them together. Scaffold templates live in src/init/templates/files/ and are copied into build/ at build time.
Skills
skills/configure-agents/SKILL.md is the authoring rubric — a skill for authoring library skills — distributed via skills.sh. It is the rubric, not a library skill, so the drift check is intentionally not self-applied to this repo.
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.
