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 | $0.00592 | $0.00592 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00237 | $0.00237 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00118 | $0.00118 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00059 | $0.00059 |
Grade A, and why
agents-md-sync 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 10d 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 — 43 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Project
Node/TypeScript CLI that composes a repo's AGENTS.md from markdown fragments in a central template directory plus per-repo .agents/*.md addenda. Runs inside the target repo's CI pipeline. Writes AGENTS.md (and a placeholder .agents/PROJECT.md when missing), nothing else. No git, no PR hosts, no multi-repo config: those were removed in 1.0 and are not coming back without a design discussion.
Stack
- TypeScript strict, Node 22+.
tsxfor dev,tscfor build. - CLI:
commander. Only runtime dependency; keep it that way. - Tests:
vitest. Lint: eslint + prettier.
Coding
- No
anywithout a written reason. - Keep I/O (fs, console) at the edges in
src/run.ts;src/compose.tsstays pure. - No comments that restate the code. Only non-obvious why.
- No templating engine. Include markers are
<!-- include: NAME.md -->, resolved by string replacement. - Fragment resolution is profile-aware:
profiles/<profile>/NAME.mdwins overcommon/NAME.md. Test both paths. - Default skeleton is the
DEFAULT_SKELETONconstant insrc/templateLoader.ts. A profile overrides it with its ownAGENTS.md.tmpl. - One profile per run. Multi-profile (polyglot) is out of scope.
Testing
- Tests live in
tests/and mirrorsrc/. Every change tosrc/compose.tsships with a test intests/compose.test.ts. npm testruns sample check, lint and vitest. Must pass before opening a PR.- Sample outputs are golden fixtures.
examples/sample-output-<profile>.mdis rendered fromexamples/template-repo/plusexamples/sample-targets/<profile>/. Fragment or header change →npm run render:samplesand commit the result in the same change. CI fails on drift.
Review & Git
- No direct pushes to
master. Feature branch and PR. - Not a fork. If that ever changes, confirm the PR target with the user before
gh pr create. - Commits: short imperative subject, body optional.
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.
