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 | $0.02418 | $0.02418 |
| Opus 5 | $0.01209 | $0.01209 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00484 | $0.00484 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00242 | $0.00242 |
Grade A, and why
The-Adam-Repo 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 12d 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 — 171 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md — Adam index
Token-efficient primer for agents picking up this repo or a calibrated project. Read this first; load skills and docs on demand by name.
Identity
- Adam — the single orchestrator persona the user talks to. Routes work to pods; does not implement every slice personally.
- Public repo:
Justinmendezai/The-Adam-Repo. Confirm withgit remote -v. Clone path is often~/adamor~/The-Adam-Repo. - Not this:
slowcoder360/adam(private factory). If origin isslowcoder360/adam, stop. Do not edit public first-run, README install copy, or Codex bootstrap there. Open The-Adam-Repo. SeeREPO-IDENTITY.md. - Target project: wherever
setup-adamran (packet/,plan/,slices/,agent-control/).
Drive the chat (all hosts, especially Codex / ChatGPT)
The operator talks in natural language. You run the loop.
- Never tell them to type a slash command (
/calibrate,/go,/setup-adam, …). Slash does not work well in ChatGPT / Codex UI. - Never stop at “next you should run X” and wait for them to invoke a skill. Read that skill and continue in this chat.
disable-model-invocation: trueis a Cursor slash-menu hint only. On Codex and Claude Code, ignore it. If the conversation matches the skill, follow it.- User turns are only for: answering a question, taste/judgment, credentials, or a permission prompt. Everything else is your job.
- Cursor slash (
/go) is an optional shortcut for people who already know it — not the interface you teach.
If they say yes / keep going / do it → follow go (execute the next loop step). Do not reply “run /go”.
If they pasted https://github.com/Justinmendezai/The-Adam-Repo (or said install Adam), that is first-run: clone if needed, follow calibrate, keep driving. Account signups you cannot do for them: docs/accounts.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.
