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 | $0.01512 | $0.01512 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00605 | $0.00605 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00302 | $0.00302 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00151 | $0.00151 |
Grade A, and why
agent-maestro 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 103 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md
Guidance for AI coding agents working in this repository. Human contributors should read README.md first.
Project overview
Agent Maestro is a VS Code extension that:
- Orchestrates third-party AI coding extensions (Cline, Roo Code, Kilo Code, etc.) via internal adapters.
- Exposes a local proxy server (default port
23333) presenting OpenAI-, Anthropic-, and Gemini-compatible APIs backed by the VS Code Language Model API (GitHub Copilot models), used by clients such as Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini. - Runs an MCP server (default port
23334) for Model Context Protocol clients.
Primary language: TypeScript (ESM). Runtime and package-manager requirements are defined in package.json (engines and packageManager).

Known upstream (VS Code) issues
- Image MIME re-encode — the VS Code LM API re-encodes images to PNG when both dimensions exceed 768px without updating their declared MIME type, which breaks providers that sniff bytes (e.g. Anthropic vision). Worked around in
src/server/utils/imageMime.ts. Re-check this whenever bumpingengines.vscode— if upstream starts preserving the source format, the workaround must be removed or it will cause a new mismatch. Seedocs/vscode-image-mime-defect.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.

agent-maestro AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository Joouis/agent-maestro (209 stars, last pushed 13d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,512 tokens to every session, about $0.0060 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 2026-09-04.
