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 | $0.00696 | $0.00696 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00278 | $0.00278 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00139 | $0.00139 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00070 | $0.00070 |
Grade A, and why
rule-link 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 2mo 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.

AGENTS.md
This file provides guidance to coding agents when working with code in this repository.
Project Overview
rule-link is a CLI tool for managing AI programming tool rule files through symbolic links. It helps developers maintain consistency across different AI assistants (Cursor, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, etc.) by creating symlinks from a single source file (typically AGENTS.md).
Development Commands
pnpm install- Install dependenciespnpm build- Build the project using tsdownpnpm dev- Build in watch modepnpm test- Run tests with Vitestpnpm typecheck- Run TypeScript type checkingpnpm release- Bump version and publish to npm
Architecture
The codebase follows a modular architecture with clear separation of concerns:
Core Modules
src/config.ts- AI tool configurations and constants. DefinesSUPPORTED_AI_TOOLSarray with tool-specific settings for file paths, native support, and configurability.src/types.ts- Core type definitions includingAIToolinterface andCreateOptions.src/utils.ts- Utility functions for symlink creation, file validation, and path operations.src/interactive.ts- Interactive CLI prompts and user selection logic using @inquirer/prompts.src/cli.ts- Command-line interface built with Commander.js, handles argument parsing and command routing.src/index.ts- Main entry point that re-exports all public APIs.
Key Concepts
- Source File: Default is
AGENTS.md(changed fromrule.mdfor better AI tool compatibility) - Target File: Default is
coding-standards.mdfor configurable tools - Native Support: Some tools (Cursor, Gemini CLI, Roo Code) natively read
AGENTS.mdfrom project root - Symbolic Links: Created for tools without native support to maintain consistency
AI Tool Configuration
Each AI tool in SUPPORTED_AI_TOOLS has:
name: Display namefileName/directoryTemplate: Target file pathisConfigurable: Whether tool supports custom target file namesnativeSupport: Whether tool natively supportsAGENTS.md
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.

rule-link AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository hangboss1761/rule-link (1 stars, last pushed 1y ago), licensed MIT. It adds 696 tokens to every session, about $0.0028 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-08-31.
