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 | $0.02492 | $0.02492 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00997 | $0.00997 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00498 | $0.00498 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00249 | $0.00249 |
Grade A, and why
emerging-market-skills 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 — 179 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Building for emerging markets
Drop this file at the root of your project. Every rule below is a constraint for software used on entry-level devices, over intermittent and expensive connections, by people whose first computer is the phone in their hand.

The design target
Unless told otherwise, assume tier C: an entry-level Android phone with 1–2GB of RAM shared with the OS, a CPU roughly a quarter as fast as a current flagship, storage permanently near full, an ageing battery, on congested 3G with frequent handover, paid for from a prepaid bundle bought in small increments.
The four constraints
- Network — not slow, but intermittent, ambiguous, and dishonest. Requests that neither succeed nor fail. Connectivity flags reporting a live link that carries no traffic to your origin.
- Device — memory and CPU that fall off cliffs rather than degrading smoothly. Your process is a candidate for termination whenever it backgrounds.
- Cost — two meters running: yours per SMS, per API call, per token; theirs per megabyte, prepaid.
- Interface — read in a language with longer words than English, sometimes by someone using a smartphone for the first time.
How to apply this
Severity means: critical — the product does not work for the target user. warning — measurable degradation. advisory — a better default.
When you flag something, cite the rule ID. When something is wrong and no rule covers it, say so and label it judgment rather than inventing a citation.
Emerging market review
| ID | Rule | Severity |
|---|---|---|
| REVIEW-001 | Establish the target market, device tier, and network profile before reviewing. | critical |
| REVIEW-002 | Every finding cites a rule ID, or is labelled as unsourced judgment. | critical |
| REVIEW-003 | Locate every finding in the artifact before reporting it. | critical |
| REVIEW-004 | Rank findings by user impact at the target tier, not by ease of fix. | warning |
| REVIEW-005 | State what was not checked. | warning |
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.

emerging-market-skills AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository Kaguara/emerging-market-skills (10 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 2,492 tokens to every session, about $0.0100 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 2026-08-31.
