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 | $0.01556 | $0.01556 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00622 | $0.00622 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00311 | $0.00311 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00156 | $0.00156 |
Grade A, and why
skills 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 5d 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 — 128 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md
Notes for coding agents working in this repo, and for agents that use these skills to call Sonilo.
What this repo is
Agent Skills (per the Agent Skills spec)
for Sonilo's music, sound effects, dubbing and audio ducking API. There is no
build and no runtime code: every skill is a SKILL.md describing tools that
live in other repos (the local sonilo-mcp server, the hosted MCP server at
https://api.sonilo.com/mcp, the sonilo CLI and the SDKs). The same
directory is also a Claude Code plugin marketplace (.claude-plugin/) and a
Muse Code plugin (.muse-plugin/).
Layout
<skill>/SKILL.md one directory per skill; directory name == frontmatter `name`
references/ shared guidance the skills link to
api_reference.md one-page REST reference (base URL, every endpoint, errors)
api-claims.md API behaviour verified against the backend
preflight.md checks to run before any paid call
music-prompting.md, sfx-prompting.md
tests/validate.py the whole test suite
tests/tool_surface.json recorded tool names, parameters, defaults, CLI flags, banned tokens
evals/routing/ trigger evals: does the right skill load for a query
.claude-plugin/ plugin.json (skill list, version) + marketplace.json
.muse-plugin/plugin.json same skills and version, plus the hosted MCP server
Commands
python -m pip install PyYAML
python tests/validate.py # offline; CI runs this on every push and PR
pip install sonilo-mcp
python tests/validate.py --refresh # re-read the local tool surface from the installed package
CI (.github/workflows/validate.yml) runs both, and fails if --refresh
changes tests/tool_surface.json. It also runs weekly, because the tools these
skills describe change in other repos.
Making changes
- A skill's
namemust equal its directory name; the description must stay under 1024 characters and mention Sonilo, or it never routes. - Any tool, parameter, default or
sonilo <subcommand> --flagyou write in aSKILL.md,README.mdorreferences/*.mdis checked againsttests/tool_surface.json. If the upstream tool changed, update the surface first, then the prose. - The two MCP servers name the task recovery tool differently:
get_sfx_taskon the local server,get_generation_taskon the hosted one. Never mention one without the other. banned_tokensintool_surface.jsonlists statements that used to be true. Do not reintroduce them.- Adding or renaming a skill: update
.claude-plugin/plugin.json,.muse-plugin/plugin.jsonand the table inREADME.md. Both manifests carry the same version; bump it in both (commit titles end with the version, e.g.(2.5.1)). - When a check misses a bug you fixed by hand, add the case to
validate.py.
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.

skills AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository sonilo-ai/skills (115 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,556 tokens to every session, about $0.0062 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 2026-10-14.
