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 | $0.01975 | $0.01975 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00790 | $0.00790 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00395 | $0.00395 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00198 | $0.00198 |
Grade A, and why
fram-loop 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 108 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
fram-loop — agent instructions
This repo is the source of the fram-loop skill — a two-agent autonomous loop (Builder + Reviewer + Orchestrator) for shipping multi-phase coding deliverables. The skill itself is at skills/fram-loop/SKILL.md. This CLAUDE.md is for agents working on the skill (editing it, releasing it, evaluating it), not for agents running the skill on a project.

Keep root minimal. Per-eval test deliverables (e.g. The Margin) live as standalone repos under ~/Documents/Projects/fram-ateliers/, not in this repo. Do not commit site/, deliverable folders, or scratch worktrees here — gh skill install only ships skills/fram-loop/ to install users, but anyone browsing or cloning the repo would see clutter.
Release process — read before tagging
The canonical installer is gh skill install (built into gh ≥ 2.90, shipped April 2026, validates against the agentskills.io spec). Two non-obvious things about its resolver:
- Tag ≠ Release.
gh skill install TheRealClodius/fram-loop fram-loop(no version pin) resolves to the latest GitHub Release, NOT the latest pushed tag. A tag with no Release is invisible to the resolver. Always cut a Release alongside the tag. - Bundled assets ride along — but only if they exist at the tagged commit.
references/templates.mdis part of the skill. If you tag a commit that predates a bundled asset, install users get a stale skill missing that asset. Tag late, not early.
Cutting a release
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.

fram-loop CLAUDE.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository TheRealClodius/fram-loop (2 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 1,975 tokens to every session, about $0.0079 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 2026-08-31.
