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 | $0.01976 | $0.01976 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00790 | $0.00790 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00395 | $0.00395 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00198 | $0.00198 |
Grade A, and why
ape-adventure CLAUDE.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 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 — 165 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
CLAUDE.md — Ape Adventure Working Agreement
Working agreement for Claude Code (and other AI collaborators) on Ape Adventure — a 90s-era jungle-platformer homage built in Python with pygame.
This file replaces the previous arcade-game agreement (preserved alongside legacy_game.py, the legacy v0). The new direction is a side-scrolling adventure inspired by 1990s console platformers — multi-level worlds, lush biomes, collectibles, vehicles (later), boss fights.
What this project is now
A 90s-style side-scrolling platformer with rich animation, real music, and a multi-world structure. Built in Python with pygame, structured as a proper package (no longer single-file).
Direction: Donkey Kong Country–inspired — but original characters, original IP, original art. Inspired by the genre, not a clone.
Tone: adventurous, warm, vivid. Emotional opposite of the legacy arcade game (which was dry and tense).
Scope (current commitment): vertical slice — 1 world ("Tangle Jungle"), 3–4 levels, 1 boss, 1 playable character. Architecture left open for a full DKC-style homage later (6 worlds, 30+ levels, tag-team characters, vehicles).

Legacy game (legacy_game.py)
The single-file climbing-platformer is parked, not deleted. It still runs. Treat it as a finished v0 reference — do not modify, refactor, or delete it without explicit permission. New work happens under ape_escape/.

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.
