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 | $0.00532 | $0.00532 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00266 | $0.00266 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00106 | $0.00106 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00053 | $0.00053 |
Grade A, and why
next-shadcn-dashboard-starter 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 11d 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 — 23 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
CLAUDE.md
This is a Next.js 16 + shadcn/ui admin dashboard starter kit.

Critical Conventions
- React Query for all data fetching —
void prefetchQuery()on server +useSuspenseQueryon client (standard TanStack pattern),useMutationfor forms,HydrationBoundary+dehydratefor hydration,<Suspense fallback>for streaming - API layer per feature —
api/types.ts→api/service.ts→api/queries.ts; queries use key factories (entityKeys.all/list/detail); components import from service and queries, never from mock APIs directly - nuqs for URL search params —
searchParamsCacheon server,useQueryStateson client, usegetSortingStateParserfor sort (same parser asuseDataTable) - Icons — only import from
@/components/icons, never from@tabler/icons-reactdirectly - Forms —
useAppFormfrom@/lib/form(TanStackcreateFormHook) +form.AppFieldrendering the field components in@/components/forms/fields(field.TextField,field.SelectField, …); each component is the shadcn TanStack Form doc anatomy; rawform.Fieldfor one-off custom fields; form-level ZodonSubmitvalidators - Page headers — use
PageContainerprops (pageTitle,pageDescription,pageHeaderAction), never import<Heading>manually - Formatting — single quotes, JSX single quotes, no trailing comma, 2-space indent
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.
