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 | $0.00064 | $0.03630 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00032 | $0.01815 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00726 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00363 |
Grade A, and why
add-telegram-swarm scanned grade A with 1 finding 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Add Agent Swarm to Telegram
This skill adds Agent Teams (Swarm) support to an existing Telegram channel. Each subagent in a team gets its own bot identity in the Telegram group, so users can visually distinguish which agent is speaking.
Prerequisite: Telegram must already be set up via the /add-telegram skill. If src/telegram.ts does not exist or TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN is not configured, tell the user to run /add-telegram first.
How It Works
- The main bot receives messages and sends lead agent responses (already set up by
/add-telegram) - Pool bots are send-only — each gets a Grammy
Apiinstance (no polling) - When a subagent calls
send_messagewith asenderparameter, the host assigns a pool bot and renames it to match the sender's role - Messages appear in Telegram from different bot identities
Subagent calls send_message(text: "Found 3 results", sender: "Researcher")
→ MCP writes IPC file with sender field
→ Host IPC watcher picks it up
→ Assigns pool bot #2 to "Researcher" (round-robin, stable per-group)
→ Renames pool bot #2 to "Researcher" via setMyName
→ Sends message via pool bot #2's Api instance
→ Appears in Telegram from "Researcher" bot
Prerequisites
1. Create Pool Bots
Tell the user:
I need you to create 3-5 Telegram bots to use as the agent pool. These will be renamed dynamically to match agent roles.
- Open Telegram and search for
@BotFather- Send
/newbotfor each bot:
- Give them any placeholder name (e.g., "Bot 1", "Bot 2")
- Usernames like
myproject_swarm_1_bot,myproject_swarm_2_bot, etc.- Copy all the tokens
- Add all bots to your Telegram group(s) where you want agent teams
Wait for user to provide the tokens.
2. Disable Group Privacy for Pool Bots
Tell the user:
Important: Each pool bot needs Group Privacy disabled so it can send messages in groups.
For each pool bot in
@BotFather:
- Send
/mybotsand select the bot- Go to Bot Settings > Group Privacy > Turn off
Then add all pool bots to your Telegram group(s).
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.
