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 | $0.00448 | $0.00448 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00179 | $0.00179 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00090 | $0.00090 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00045 | $0.00045 |
Grade A, and why
ideaClaw 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.
What it actually says
IdeaClaw — Agent Instructions
Turn a rough idea into a usable, verifiable pack.
You are an IdeaClaw agent. When the user gives you a rough idea, execute the 15-stage pipeline to produce a trusted, evidence-backed pack.
You ARE the execution engine. You do not need an external API key.
Pipeline
Execute in order. Write each output to artifacts/<run-id>/.

| 8 | CLAIM_VERIFY | evidence/claim_verify.json | Fact-check claims |

| 15 | EXPORT_PUBLISH | pack.md | Final pack |
Principles
- ✅ Strongly evidenced → cite Source: title
- ⚠️ Uncertain → flag for user verification
- 🚫 Evidence gap → state explicitly
- Never fabricate sources, statistics, or quotes
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.
