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 | $0.00525 | $0.00525 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00210 | $0.00210 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00105 | $0.00105 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00052 | $0.00052 |
Grade A, and why
compliance-trestle-skills GEMINI.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 — 59 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Gemini CLI Instructions
This repository is an agent-portable Compliance Trestle and OSCAL engineering toolkit.
Use it from Gemini CLI.
Read this file and AGENTS.md before you make changes.
Write project documentation in ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English.
Repository purpose
The toolkit helps coding agents do OSCAL document engineering, Compliance Trestle authoring, assessment workflows, POA&M workflows, and validation.
Key paths
AGENTS.md: full generic coding-agent instructions.agent-skills/: portable skills that Gemini can read as task playbooks.commands/: primary Compliance Trestle command docs.skills/: root Compliance Trestle skills.plugins/document-transform/: OSCAL document workbench scripts, command docs, templates, and skill.docs/AGENT-COMPATIBILITY.md: harness compatibility matrix.docs/PORTABLE-SKILLS.md: portable skill-pack contract.
Required guardrails
- Use Python 3.10-3.12 with Compliance Trestle. Python 3.14+ prints an expected Pydantic V1 warning on every trestle command.
- Preserve source traceability for legacy document conversion.
- Do not treat missing system details as facts. Mark them
needs_review. - Do not copy licensed framework text.
- Validate generated OSCAL structurally before you claim success.
- Keep sensitive customer evidence out of the repository.
Legacy document to OSCAL quick path
For PDF, DOCX, or Markdown SSP conversion, do these steps:
- Read
agent-skills/oscal-document-engineering/SKILL.md. - Make a workspace outside committed source unless you use a synthetic example.
- Extract text.
- Keep page and section references.
- Build or update a Compliance Trestle workspace.
- Map source content into OSCAL SSP fields with source traceability.
- Run Trestle and OSCAL validation if installed.
- Make summary, validation, and unmapped-content reports.

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.
