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 | $0.03248 | $0.03248 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.01299 | $0.01299 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00650 | $0.00650 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00325 | $0.00325 |
Grade A, and why
orchestra-skills 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 21d 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 — 164 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Agent guide — orchestra-skills
This repository is documentation and workflow instructions for AI agents, not an application runtime. It is distributed as a plugin marketplace with two independently-installable plugins, both listed in the manifests at the repo root (.claude-plugin/marketplace.json, .cursor-plugin/marketplace.json):
orchestra(skills/orchestra/) — diagnose/fix/triage pipeline runs, author pipeline YAML, dbt Slim CI, data-quality tests, account health.migrate-to-orchestra(skills/migrate-to-orchestra/) — convert pipelines from another orchestrator (Dagster, Prefect, and Airflow) into Orchestra pipeline YAML.
Each plugin is a single source of truth for its own skills — no generated copies. Shared Orchestra pipeline/schema material lives under skills/orchestra/references/orchestra/, inside the orchestra plugin bundle; migrate-to-orchestra skills should link to it for schema/validation rules rather than re-deriving their own copy, to avoid two sources of truth drifting apart.

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.
