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 | $0.00794 | $0.00794 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00318 | $0.00318 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00159 | $0.00159 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00079 | $0.00079 |
Grade A, and why
engrava-mcp 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.
This is a copy
92% identical to engrava AGENTS.md — 6 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 60 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Repository context
This is a public repository (engrava-mcp) — Model Context Protocol server exposing Engrava as agent memory. License: MIT. Primary language: python 3.11+.
Assume every commit message, PR title, PR body, branch name, code comment, and docstring is world-visible. Public-safe by default.
Required reading before generating commits

Commit hygiene
- Conventional Commits 1.0.0 —
<type>(<scope>): <description>. Types inCLAUDE.md. - Public release tags (
vX.Y.Z) and this repo's GitHub issue/PR numbers (#N) are your durable identifiers. - Locally-documented ADRs (
docs/adr/ADR-NNN-*.md) may be referenced once the file exists in this repo. - Generic feature descriptions and Conventional Commit headers are always welcome.
A commit-message hook is installed locally to give you a fast feedback loop on commit-message hygiene. Run git commit and it fires on the patterns it checks for. It is a pattern check, not a judge of whether a message reads well for a public project - what it does not check is still yours and the reviewer's to get right.
Branch hygiene
Branch names: <type>/<kebab-description>. Plain English. No internal identifiers. ≤ 50 chars.
Examples:
feature/priority-signal-hybrid-searchfix/empty-count-on-mindqldocs/quickstart-update
Self-check before every commit
Before finalising a commit message, ask:
- Could this message, branch name, or referenced symbol reveal information about a workflow that should stay private?
- Am I using only durable public identifiers (release tags, this repo's issue/PR numbers, locally-documented ADRs)?
- Is the message format Conventional Commits?
- Is the branch name plain English in
<type>/<kebab-description>form?
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.
