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 | $0.00630 | $0.00630 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00252 | $0.00252 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00126 | $0.00126 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00063 | $0.00063 |
Grade A, and why
orbit 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 54 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Agent instructions
Read CLAUDE.md first. It is the full context file for this
repository and it is kept current: architecture, layout, the toolchain table,
the conventions and the hard rules. This file exists so that assistants which
look for AGENTS.md rather than CLAUDE.md find their way there.
CONTRIBUTING.md covers the human side: how to pick work,
how to test, and how a pull request is reviewed.
The short version
Orbit is a free, realtime, keyboard-first task manager. One Next.js app on Vercel's node runtime, with the realtime hub and the MCP tools in workspace packages.
bun install
cp .env.example .env
bun run infra:up
bun run db:push && bun run db:test-setup && bun run db:seed
bun run dev
bun run verify # lint, comment policy, types, tests
Rules that will fail the build
- Bun only. No npm, pnpm, yarn or turbo. Every command starts with
bun. - Shipped server code must not import a Bun built-in. The deployed runtime
is node. Use
postgres.js,ioredis,@aws-sdk/client-s3,node:fs/promises,@node-rs/argon2andrandomUUIDv7()from@orbit/shared/utils. Test files andapps/realtimeare exempt. - No comments in code.
bun run check-commentsfails on anything that is not a functional directive such as@ts-expect-errororbiome-ignore. Put the meaning in names and structure. Explanations go in the pull request or indocs/. - No em-dash characters anywhere, including commit messages.
- No AI attribution in commits, branches, pull requests, code or docs.
- Strict types.
anyand non-null assertions are lint errors.noUncheckedIndexedAccessandexactOptionalPropertyTypesare on. Parse external input with a Zod schema from@orbit/shared. - Tests live in each package's
tests/tree, mirroringsrc/, never beside the code. Import frombun:test. - Authorization goes through
packages/shared/src/policyand is enforced on the server. A check that exists only in a component is not a check.
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.
