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 | $0.07925 | $0.07925 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.03170 | $0.03170 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.01585 | $0.01585 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00792 | $0.00792 |
Grade A, and why
cli 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 11d 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 — 338 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Code Standards
When creating or modifying files, you MUST follow these conventions:

- UI Conventions @.conventions/STYLEGUIDE-UI.md
- When a user asks about what you can do, you should suggest actions from this CLAUDE.md file.
- NEVER read a

Code Quality Checks
IMPORTANT After making code changes, you MUST run the checks specified in @.conventions/STYLEGUIDE-CODE.md
Local Development
When running Taskless CLI commands in this repo, use pnpm cli instead of pnpm dlx @taskless/cli@latest. This runs the locally built CLI at ./packages/cli/dist/index.js.
pnpm cli runs the last build, not the working tree. dist/ is a build artifact and nothing rebuilds it for you, so a stale dist/ serves stale behavior, including stale agent <topic> recipes, which are embedded into the bundle at build time rather than fetched over the network. Run pnpm build first whenever the answer depends on current source.
This is not hypothetical. An agent followed pnpm cli agent create-sg-rule from a dist/ built 26 commits earlier and got topic v2 while HEAD served v3. The revision it missed was the one documenting that language: takes ast-grep's own spelling, so four new rules were authored with an off-list lowercase typescript. That one happened to reach the right parser. A name ast-grep does not recognize at all aborts config parsing and takes every other rule's report down with it, silently.
The installed Taskless skill pins a published nightly, recorded as install.cliVersion in .taskless/taskless.json, and every command in .taskless/skills/taskless/SKILL.md carries that pin. The pin and pnpm cli disagree exactly when dist/ is behind HEAD, and neither is automatically right: the pin is a real build of some commit, pnpm cli is this tree only after you rebuild it. Rebuild, then prefer pnpm cli: it is the only one that can reflect uncommitted work. Note that the nightly package is blocked by a deny rule here, so pnpm build is the practical way to get current recipes, not a fallback.
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.

cli CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository taskless/cli (6 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 7,925 tokens to every session, about $0.0317 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 2026-10-02.
