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 | $0.01983 | $0.01983 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00793 | $0.00793 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00397 | $0.00397 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00198 | $0.00198 |
Grade A, and why
grimoire 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 17d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 87 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
grimoire: agent and contributor instructions
grimoire is a multi-plugin repository (a "spellbook") that ships the same plugins to Claude Code and Codex at the same time. Every plugin under plugins/ is a book. archmage is the required reading: it carries the meta skills that teach an agent how to use and extend the grimoire.
Human-facing docs (README, docs/) are written in Korean. Everything a harness reads (SKILL.md, hooks, manifests, scripts, this file) is written in English.

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.
