Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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	$0.00631	$0.00631
Opus 5.5	$0.00252	$0.00252
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00126	$0.00126
Haiku 4.5	$0.00063	$0.00063

Security

Grade A, and why

mini-kode 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 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.

Mini-Kode - Development Guide

Technology Stack

TypeScript - Static typing

Bun - Runtime and build tool
Ink - CLI UI with React
OpenAI SDK - LLM integration
Vitest - Testing framework
Zod - Runtime type validation
Commander - CLI framework

Architecture

Core Design

Tool Pattern: All tools implement Tool<Input, Output> interface
Concurrency: Readonly tools execute concurrently, writing tools sequentially
Streaming: LLM responses stream progressively
Permissions: Project-level + Session-level control
Dual Mode: Interactive UI and non-interactive execution

Key Modules

Tools (src/tools/): Tool system with concurrency control
Permissions (src/permissions/): Two-layer permission system
LLM (src/llm/): Streaming client and tool integration
UI (src/ui/): Ink-based CLI interface
Config (src/config/): Multi-layer configuration system
Agent (src/agent/): Core agent logic and session management

Development Commands

pnpm run dev      # Development mode with file watching
pnpm run build    # Build with Bun (output to dist/index.mjs)
pnpm run test     # Run tests with Vitest
pnpm run lint     # Type check with TypeScript
pnpm run format   # Format code with Prettier

Code Style Guidelines

Import Organization

Node.js built-in libraries (fs, path, os, crypto)
Third-party libraries (react, ink, chalk, zod, openai)
Relative file imports (./types, ../utils)

Each section separated by a blank line, alphabetically sorted within sections.

Code Formatting

Use pnpm run format to format all TypeScript/TSX and Markdown files
Ensure all generated code follows import organization rules
Run format command before committing changes

Comment Language

All comments must be in English for consistency.

Key Features

Dual Mode Support: Interactive UI and non-interactive execution
Flexible LLM Support: DeepSeek, OpenAI, and custom API providers
Fine-grained Permissions: Project-level and session-level control
Streaming Responses: Real-time output during execution
Configuration Management: Multi-layer config with CLI commands

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.
