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 | $0.00215 | $0.00215 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00086 | $0.00086 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00043 | $0.00043 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00021 | $0.00021 |
Grade A, and why
skills GEMINI.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 8d 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
varg for Gemini CLI
Before you build any video, image, audio or editing pipeline (UGC ad, captions, lyric or music video, talking avatar, product video, explainer, faceless short, edit a video, FFmpeg), call search_how_to on the varg-how-to server with the person's request in their own words. Then call get_how_to on the best how_to card. It returns the tutorial: the best skill and its install command, the 2–4 options to show the person (with example videos), and the steps. Search needs no key.
To generate, use the varg server. It signs in with OAuth the first time and gives one credit balance for every image, video, voice, music and lip-sync model. Call estimate_cost before a batch, a long video or a render.
The same instructions as agent skills live in this repository: how-to-make-ai-video (search) and varg-ai (generation).
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.
