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 | $0.00197 | $0.00197 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00079 | $0.00079 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00039 | $0.00039 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00020 |
Grade A, and why
spar-kit 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 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.
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
Agent instructions
- Be aware of tools in
.spar-kit/.local/tools.yamland commands injustfile/repo scripts (read them if not already in context). Use repo-defined tools and commands as the default approach.
SPAR workflow:
- This repo uses the SPAR workflow for non-trivial changes.
- Start with
spar-specifyfor any multi-file, user-facing, or unclear change. When unsure, default tospar-specify. - SPAR work is tracked in
specs/(active/andcompleted/). - SPAR is the source of truth for planning, execution, and documentation.
- When an active spec is complete, suggest running
spar-retainto finalize documentation.
Failure handling:
- If an approach fails or is unclear, do not switch to a less ideal approach. Stop, explain the issue, offer options and ask before proceeding.
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.
