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 | $0.04189 | $0.04189 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.01676 | $0.01676 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00838 | $0.00838 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00419 | $0.00419 |
Grade A, and why
notebooklm-mcp-cli 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 12d 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 — 297 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AI Context Bootstrap
Mission
Read ai/STANDARDS.md and load all files in the order it specifies before beginning
any work. Do not start coding, planning, or responding until the full load order is
complete.
This project uses version format: MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.YYYYMMDD.HHMM
Example: 1.0.0.20260325.0624
Never store credentials, secrets, or sensitive data in any ai/ file.
Project Commands
| Action | Command |
|---|---|
| Build / package | uv build (local install: uv tool install --force .) |
| Test | uv run pytest -m "not e2e" |
| Lint / validate | uv run --extra dev ruff check . && uv run --extra dev ruff format --check . (pinned ruff — not uvx ruff) |
| Run locally | uv run nlm --help (CLI) · uv run notebooklm-mcp (MCP server) |
In a multi-component repo, each component directory may carry its own small
AGENTS.md with that component's commands and facts — nearest file wins,
additively. See ai/STANDARDS.md → Nested AGENTS.md.
Self-hosted runners: unsetting the variable silently routes the job away
If your workflows resolve runs-on: through a variable —
${{ vars.SCAFFOLD_RUNNER || 'ubuntu-latest' }} is the shipped shape — then unsetting
that variable does not fail, it reroutes. The job lands on a runner that may not exist,
may not be paid for, or may not have your toolchain, and the symptom is a CI that looks
dead rather than red. tools/ci_status.sh checks the variable is set and that every
runs-on: reads it.
tools/preflight.sh is not the whole gate — CI stops at its first red step, so a push
teaches you about exactly one failure. Run preflight before every push anyway.
Version stamps: the two halves must agree
MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH.YYYYMMDD.HHMM only works if sorting by version and sorting by timestamp
give the same order. Fabricate a stamp once — round it forward to a nicer time, or stamp a
release before you cut it — and the next release stamped truthfully sorts earlier than its
predecessor. Every benchmark row and every envelope carries a version, so the corpus sorts
wrong from then on.
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.
