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 | $0.00333 | $0.00333 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00133 | $0.00133 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00067 | $0.00067 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00033 | $0.00033 |
Grade A, and why
Copilot-Skills kit-analysis.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 1mo 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
Kit Codebase Analysis
This codebase is analyzed by Kit, which provides pre-computed indexes for symbols, files, and dependencies.
📂 Analysis Files
The following analysis files are available in .kit-analysis/:
-
symbols.json: Complete list of functions, classes, and methods with their file locations and line numbers.- Use this to find where a symbol is defined without searching the whole repo.
- Format:
[{"name": "...", "kind": "...", "file": "...", "line": ...}, ...]
-
file_tree.json: Full directory structure of the repository.- Use this to understand the project layout.
-
summary.md: High-level statistics and top files.
🤖 How to Use
- Symbol Lookup: If you need to find a function or class, read
.kit-analysis/symbols.jsonfirst. It is much faster thangreporfind. - Project Structure: Read
.kit-analysis/file_tree.jsonto see all files. - Context Gathering: When asked to "understand the codebase", start by reading
.kit-analysis/summary.md.
🔄 Updates
These files are updated automatically. If you make significant changes (refactoring, adding many files), you can request a refresh by running:
uv run --with cased-kit python .github/scripts/kit/bootstrap.py
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.
