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 | $0.00389 | $0.00389 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00156 | $0.00156 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00078 | $0.00078 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00039 | $0.00039 |
Grade C, and why
dev-templates AGENTS.md scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.
Tells the agent never to refusehighAnti-refusal
Suppressing the ability to decline removes a core safety control; a later harmful request then succeeds.
(`~/.local/bin/urb`) are host commands and are not covered by that rule. Do not refuse fleet work What it actually says

This file is the entry point for Codex / OpenAI-family tooling and other agents. Same content as

Short version
- This repo is
dev-templates— the URB template library: reusable project templates, the plan-based-workflow template, and the website that publishes them. - Read
website/docs/ai-developer/project-dev-templates.mdfirst; it is the authoritative project doc. - Read
website/docs/ai-developer/README.mdnext for the AI-developer workflow. - Plans live in
website/docs/ai-developer/plans/. - Fleet work arrives on the bus in
terchris/urb-agents, not in this repo: the inbox is a query —~/.local/bin/urb inbox --id dev-templates(open issues labelledto:dev-templates). There is no mailbox directory.
Where commands run — read this before your first command
This repo uses a devcontainer, and
DEVCONTAINER.md says all commands run inside it.
That rule is about project commands — package managers, builds, tests, tooling.
Your own agent session runs on the host, in tmux. Reading files, git, and the bus client
(~/.local/bin/urb) are host commands and are not covered by that rule. Do not refuse fleet work
because of it.
For the always-critical rules and the full Start-Here reading order, see CLAUDE.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.
