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 | $0.01360 | $0.01360 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00544 | $0.00544 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00272 | $0.00272 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00136 | $0.00136 |
Grade A, and why
bmalph 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 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 — 108 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
bmalph
Integration layer between BMAD-METHOD and Ralph.
What is bmalph?
bmalph bundles and installs two AI development systems:
- BMAD-METHOD — Planning agents and workflows (Phases 1-3)
- Ralph — Autonomous implementation loop (Phase 4)
Architecture
Phases 1-3 (Planning): BMAD agents + workflows (interactive, command-driven)
Phase 4 (Implementation): Ralph loop (autonomous, bash-driven)
bmalph: CLI + transition logic

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.

bmalph CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository LarsCowe/bmalph (405 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,360 tokens to every session, about $0.0054 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
