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 | $0.08686 | $0.08686 |
| Opus 5 | $0.04343 | $0.04343 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.01737 | $0.01737 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00869 | $0.00869 |
Grade A, and why
Arena4Ai 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 10d 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

CLAUDE.md
This file provides guidance to Claude Code (claude.ai/code) when working with code in this repository.
What This Is
Arena4Ai — competitive AI orchestration platform. Two (or more) AI agents race to solve a structured brief, then a cross-judge scores their deliverables. Supports Claude, Codex, and Gemini.
Status: Sprint 7D complete. 255 tests passing.

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.

Arena4Ai CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository kikostefanov-lab/Arena4Ai (2 stars, last pushed 17d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 8,686 tokens to every session, about $0.0434 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
