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 | $0.00279 | $0.00279 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00112 | $0.00112 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00056 | $0.00056 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00028 | $0.00028 |
Grade A, and why
bear-notes-mcp copilot-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 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.
What it actually says
When performing a code review for a PR
Review Objective
- Perform the PR review as instructed in the "Review Guidelines" section below.
- Be specific, concise, and actionable in your feedback.
- Explain the "why" behind your recommendations. Never assume — only state what you know for sure based on the new code you review and the existing codebase.
Review Guidelines
- Review for KISS and DRY
- Carefully read the docs/dev/SPECIFICATION.md file, which explains the system architecture and design constraints (including KISS/YAGNI principles) for this project.
- Using this knowledge, diligently review the PR changes according to these principles.
- Review for Codestyle
- Carefully read the docs/dev/CODE_STYLE.md file, which explains the style rules of this project.
- Using this knowledge, diligently review the PR changes according to the style guides.
When working on a new feature or an idea
- Start from carefully reading the CLAUDE.md and README.md documents to get the context of this project
- Then, read the docs/dev/SPECIFICATION.md document to deep dive into the technical details
- Then, read the CHANGELOG.md to know what has been already shipped
- IMPORTANT! Only after completion of those three steps, you may start working on a new feature requested by the user.
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.
