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 | $0.00381 | $0.00381 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00152 | $0.00152 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00076 | $0.00076 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00038 | $0.00038 |
Grade A, and why
autonomous-ai-agency copilot-instructions.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 15d 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
GitHub Copilot instructions
The binding ruleset for every agent in this repository is CLAUDE.md §1 and §2.
Read it before changing code. The verification rule is repeated here because it gates every
"done" claim.
Verification rule (mirrored from CLAUDE.md §2, binding on every agent)
- No "done" without an independent verifier (pstack). Before any task is reported
done, by a coding agent or by an agency agent, a verifier that did not write the
change tries to break it. It exercises the real artifact (runs the feature, the
tests, the built page; not "it compiles", not the author's own report) and returns
PASS,PASS+NOTES, orFAILwith a report: what it checked, what it found broken, what was fixed, and the evidence (command output; screenshots for any UI change).FAILsends the work back: fix every defect it found, then verify again, until it passes. OnlyPASSorPASS+NOTESpermits a done claim, and the report quotes that verdict. Work in small units that each end in a check. Agency tasks enforce this in code (tasks/verification.py, live controlTASK_VERIFICATION_REQUIRED). Source: pstack'sprinciple-prove-it-worksand its independent per-PR verdict (github.com/cursor/plugins/tree/main/pstack, github.com/michael-denyer/pstack-claude). This rule is mirrored byte-for-byte in every agent instruction file;python scripts/check_verification_rule.pyfails if a copy drifts.
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.
