Kungfu is a work-continuity system that lets the same task move between coding agents such as Codex, Claude, and OpenCode without losing its context or progress. It is for people coordinating different agents across attempts, reviews, failures, and recoveries, while the catalogue skills and instructions define agent workflows around that shared work.

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 | $0.00045 | $0.00045 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00018 | $0.00018 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00009 | $0.00009 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00005 | $0.00005 |
Grade A, and why
kungfu copilot-instructions.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 2mo 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.
What it actually says
Repository entry
Read and follow AGENTS.md before proposing or running changes.
It is the shared agent router for this repository, including the canonical
Shifu development and build entrypoint.
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.
