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 | $0.00585 | $0.00585 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00234 | $0.00234 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00117 | $0.00117 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00059 | $0.00059 |
Grade A, and why
manta 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 — 47 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Repository Guidelines
Project Structure & Module Organization
- Root app: Next.js (TypeScript) in
srcwith App Router.- UI in
src/components, hooks insrc/hooks, utilities insrc/lib. - Routes: pages under
src/app(e.g.,page.tsx), API undersrc/app/api/*.
- UI in
- Public assets in
public/. - Helper scripts in
scripts/(e.g.,scripts/setup-db.ts). - Vite template in
vite-base-template/(standalone dev environment).
Build, Test, and Development Commands
- Root app:
npm run dev— start Next.js with Turbopack onhttp://localhost:3000.npm run build— production build.npm run start— run built app.npm run lint— ESLint checks.
- Vite template:
cd vite-base-template && npm run dev— start Vite (default:5173).npm --prefix vite-base-template run build— build Vite app.
Coding Style & Naming Conventions
- Language: TypeScript (
strictenabled,noEmit: true). Path alias@/*→src/*. - Linting: Next.js + TypeScript config (
eslint.config.mjs);@typescript-eslint/no-explicit-anyis disabled. - Indentation: 2 spaces. Components in PascalCase, variables/functions in camelCase, files in kebab-case (Next.js conventions like
page.tsx,route.ts). - Styling: Tailwind CSS v4 is configured.
Testing Guidelines
- No test runner is currently configured. Prefer:
- Unit/UI: Vitest or Jest + React Testing Library.
- E2E: Playwright.
- Place tests next to source:
Component.test.tsxor under__tests__/. - Aim for critical-path coverage (core components, API handlers).
Commit & Pull Request Guidelines
- Commit messages: imperative, concise, scoped if helpful.
- Examples:
feat(editor): add split panes,fix(api): handle 500 on export.
- Examples:
- PRs must include:
- Summary of changes and rationale.
- Steps to test locally; attach screenshots for UI changes.
- Linked issue(s) and checklist: builds, lints, and runs locally.
Security & Configuration Tips
- Environment: use
.env.localfor developer machines; do not commit secrets. - Key vars:
NEXT_PUBLIC_*are client-exposed. - Rotate any leaked credentials promptly; prefer per-env keys.
- Proxy/iframe: app rewrites
/iframe/*to a dynamic API (src/app/api/iframe).
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.
