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 | $0.03834 | $0.03834 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.01534 | $0.01534 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00767 | $0.00767 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00383 | $0.00383 |
Grade A, and why
DashClaw 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 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 174 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
DashClaw (v2 Governance Runtime)
DashClaw is AI agent decision infrastructure: a focused control plane for policy enforcement, decision recording, assumption tracking, and risk signals.
Commands
npm run dev # local dev server (port 3000)
npm run lint # eslint
npm run typecheck # tsc --noEmit — required for any changed .ts file, even outside app/
npm test # vitest; one file: npm test -- <file> (full suite before push: npx vitest run)
npm run build # next build — required for any change under app/**
npm run db:migrate # apply pending schema to local DB (auto-loads .env.local; idempotent)
All other scripts stay in package.json; add one here only when the agent keeps needing it.
Verify before you commit
CLAUDE.md is advisory; CI is not. A push is its own step - run these and READ the output first:
npm run lintnpx vitest run- the full suite (targeted runs miss regressions in unrelated files). Tests run on node by default; only.jsx/.tsxtests and the files listed inDOM_TESTSinvitest.config.jsget jsdom (that split took the suite from 511s to 161s). A new test that needswindow/documentgoes in that list or carries// @vitest-environment jsdom; the tell isdocument is not defined.npx next build- required for any change underapp/**- For any changed
.tsfile (even outsideapp/), runnpm run typecheckbefore pushing - vitest transpiles without type-checking and will pass; the build runstscand will not. - Entry-path drills (v8.3,
scripts/drills/README.md): a release touchingcli/**,scripts/setup.mjs, or theuppath runsnpm run drill:fresh-windows(and/ordrill:fresh-linux) first; one touching hosted mint/export/import runsnpm run drill:hosted. A drill failure is a broken ship - fix on the spot, log it in the maintainer log. These test the DISTRIBUTION path on factory-fresh machines; CI'sup-smoke.yml(from-source, dev-imaged runners) does not cover that class.
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.
