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 | $0.00607 | $0.00607 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00243 | $0.00243 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00121 | $0.00121 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00061 | $0.00061 |
Grade A, and why
vault_agent 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 — 42 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

What matters most
term_ag.pyis the real CLI entrypoint (local + SSH mode).VaultAiAgentRunner.pyis the core execution pipeline (compact/normal/hybrid behavior).api/api_server.py+api/api_agent.pyare the HTTP path; API runs non-interactively (auto_accept=True, prompt replies forced to"n").term_api.pyonly starts uvicorn usingAPI_HOST/API_PORT.
Verified run commands
- Setup:
python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate && pip install -r requirements.txt - Agent CLI:
python term_ag.py - Remote mode:
python term_ag.py user@host - Prompt-creator mode:
python term_ag.py --prompt(also separatepython PromptCreator.pyexists) - Pipeline overrides:
python term_ag.py --compact|--normal|--hybrid - Force plan from CLI:
python term_ag.py --plan - API server:
python term_api.py - Docker dev path:
docker-compose up -d(SSH on host:2222, API on${API_PORT:-8000})
Behavior and config quirks (easy to miss)
.envmust exist in repo root;term_ag.pyexits immediately if missing.AI_ENGINEsupports comma-separated engines; routing is controlled byAI_ENGINE_ROUTE(round-robinorfallback).- Default CLI runtime mode is effectively hybrid unless
--compact/--normaloverrides are passed. Ctrl+Ain CLI switches from collaborative to automatic mode one-way for current session.LOG_FILEin.envis written under./logs/unless an absolute/explicit path is provided.- API defaults to
pipeline_mode="hybrid"when neitherpipeline_modenorcompact_modeis supplied. - API remote runs require
ssh_passwordin payload (api/api_agent.pyenforces this).
Test reality (current repo state)
- No pytest/ruff/mypy config files are present in root.
requirements.txtdoes not includepytestorpytest-asyncio, even though tests import them.- Current
tests/test_mcp_*reference anmcppackage path not present in this repository; run tests selectively and expect MCP tests to fail until that module is restored.
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.

vault_agent is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository noxgle/term_agent (7 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 607 tokens to every session, about $0.0024 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
