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 | $0.02076 | $0.02076 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00830 | $0.00830 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00415 | $0.00415 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00208 | $0.00208 |
Grade A, and why
kazam 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 25d 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 — 143 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
AGENTS.md - developing kazam
For the YAML authoring guide (what kazam agents prints), see AGENTS.md.template.
Commands
cargo test --release --all-targets # CI gate (always --release)
cargo fmt --all --check # CI gate
cargo clippy --release --all-targets -- -D warnings # CI gate; warnings = error
cargo build --release # full build
./target/release/kazam dev docs --port 3002 # live-edit the docs site
CI runs these four jobs in parallel: test, fmt, clippy, cargo-audit.
Architecture
Single Rust binary. No workspace, no features, no build script. ~7 direct crates.
src/
main.rs CLI entry (clap derive): build, dev, init, agents, wish, track, ctx, board, workspace

dev.rs Watch + serve (notify + tiny_http)
init.rs kazam init scaffolding (KAZAM_YAML / INDEX_YAML / AGENTS_MD consts)
agents.rs kazam agents subcommand

open.rs kazam open, single-file browser viewer/editor for md/yaml/json
show.rs kazam show, single-file terminal pretty-printer for md/yaml/json
track/
mod.rs kazam track CLI dispatch (11 subcommands)
types.rs Task, TaskStatus, TaskType, LogEntry, LogSeverity

docs/ The hosted docs site (itself a kazam site)
examples/kb/ Example site used by integration tests
tests/integration.rs E2e: invokes the binary, builds sites, asserts on HTML output
AGENTS.md.template Authoring guide bundled via include_str! → kazam agents / kazam init
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.

kazam AGENTS.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository tdiderich/kazam (5 stars, last pushed 4d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 2,076 tokens to every session, about $0.0083 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings.
