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 | $0.01271 | $0.01271 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00508 | $0.00508 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00254 | $0.00254 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00127 | $0.00127 |
Grade A, and why
deep-code-agent CLAUDE.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.

Key Patterns
1. Creating a Code Agent
from deep_code_agent import create_code_agent
# State backend (default)
agent = create_code_agent(
codebase_dir="/path/to/code",
backend_type="state"
)
# Filesystem backend (with terminal tool)
agent = create_code_agent(
codebase_dir="/path/to/code",
backend_type="filesystem"
)
2. Configuration Constants
All configuration is centralized in config.py:
from deep_code_agent.config import (
MAX_TIMEOUT, # 300 seconds
DEFAULT_TIMEOUT, # 30 seconds
DEFAULT_INTERRUPT_ON # HITL defaults
)
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.
