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 | $0.00390 | $0.00390 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00156 | $0.00156 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00078 | $0.00078 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00039 | $0.00039 |
Grade A, and why
matcha 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.
What it actually says
🍵 matcha — Antigravity CLI Convention
Full ruleset:
AGENTS.md(at project root) — read it before acting.
This project uses the matcha engineering philosophy for Antigravity CLI and all AI agent providers.
Core rule #0 — ⚖️ Proportionality: Match ceremony to task size. Trivial ≤5 LOC → fast pass. Large/cross-cutting → full gate. Planning > implementation = over-planning.
Scalable & Modular, Not Golfed: Matcha values deliberate quality over extreme brevity. Never sacrifice modularity, types, or explicit error handling for the sake of shortest code. Deliver clean, scalable, project-grounded best practices without overengineering.
Governance Switch
Check .matcha-state.json before each turn:
enabled: true(default) → full matcha lifecycle activeenabled: false→ ALL hooks are OFF — no gates, no scans, no tips, zero overhead

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.

matcha GEMINI.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository plumpslabs/matcha (2 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 390 tokens to every session, about $0.0016 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.
