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 | $0.00836 | $0.00836 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00334 | $0.00334 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00167 | $0.00167 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00084 | $0.00084 |
Grade A, and why
SarvTerminal 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 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.

Commands
- Build:
zig build- If you're on macOS and don't need to build the macOS app, use
-Demit-macos-app=falseto skip building the app bundle and speed up compilation.
- If you're on macOS and don't need to build the macOS app, use
- Test (Zig):
zig build test- Prefer to run targeted tests with
-Dtest-filterbecause the full test suite is slow to run.
- Prefer to run targeted tests with
- Test filter (Zig):
zig build test -Dtest-filter=<test name> - Formatting (Zig):
zig fmt . - Formatting (Swift):
swiftlint lint --strict --fix - Formatting (other):
prettier -w .
libghostty-vt
- Build:
zig build -Demit-lib-vt - Build WASM:
zig build -Demit-lib-vt -Dtarget=wasm32-freestanding -Doptimize=ReleaseSmall - Test:
zig build test-lib-vt -Dtest-filter=<filter>- Prefer this when the change is in a libghostty-vt file
- All C enums in
include/ghostty/vt/must have a_MAX_VALUE = GHOSTTY_ENUM_MAX_VALUEsentinel as the last entry to force int enum sizing (pre-C23 portability).
Directory Structure

Linux/GTK Port Roadmap (LINUX-ROADMAP.md)
LINUX-ROADMAP.md(repo root) is the single hand-off file for porting our macOS Vaults behavior to the Linux/GTK app (src/apprt/gtk). It captures, per change: the symptom, the root-cause reasoning, the platform-agnostic logic/algorithm, the macOS→GTK equivalents (which AppKit/Swift/libproc/ARC bits map to which GTK/Zig mechanism), and how to verify on Linux. The goal: a future AI agent can read only this file and reproduce the exact same behavior on Linux.- Process rule — update it at COMMIT time, not per edit. Whenever you commit a
change under
macos/, add (in the same commit) a matching entry toLINUX-ROADMAP.md. We record at commit time because a commit lands only after multiple iterations of testing/fixing once the code actually runs correctly — so the entry captures the final, working logic, not the intermediate churn. - Keep one section per logical change, mirroring the commit. Preserve the subsection shape already in the file (Symptom / Root cause & reasoning / platform-agnostic logic / macOS→Linux equivalents / How to verify on Linux).
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.

SarvTerminal AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository Sarv/SarvTerminal (67 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 836 tokens to every session, about $0.0033 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 2026-08-30.
