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 | $0.00037 | $0.00760 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00015 | $0.00304 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00152 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00076 |
Grade A, and why
width-check 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 — 107 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Skill: width-check
Run the prose line-width check across all Markdown files (or a specific file) and report violations. Advisory only: this never blocks CI.
Usage
/width-check
/width-check README.md
/width-check docs/VISION.md
/width-check --width 80
What it checks
Running prose only. Excluded from the count:
- Fenced code blocks (
```) - Tables (
|) - Headings (
#) - Image references (
![) - Link definitions (
[label]:) - HTML comments (
<!--) - Horizontal rules (
---,***) - Bold metadata lines (
**key:**)
Two files are excluded entirely: CHANGELOG.md (register of list items)
and docs/DECISIONS.md (single-line register entries with dense links).
The default limit is 100 columns. Pass --width 80 to check against a
stricter limit (useful for ASCII art context).
Procedure
1. Run the check
make check-prose-width
Or directly:
python3 scripts/check-prose-line-width.py --report
For a single file:
python3 scripts/check-prose-line-width.py --report path/to/file.md
For a custom column limit:
python3 scripts/check-prose-line-width.py --report --width 80
2. Triage the output
For each violation, determine the category:
| Category | Action |
|---|---|
| Long URL in prose | Acceptable. Move the URL to a link reference if it clutters the line. |
| List item that cannot wrap | Acceptable. List items are excluded anyway; if it still appears, it is probably a prose paragraph that starts with a hyphen. |
| Blockquote prose line | Fix: Prettier does not wrap blockquotes; break manually. |
| Genuine overlong sentence | Fix: break the sentence or shorten it. Do not insert a hard newline mid-sentence purely to hit the column limit. |
| Pre-formatted prose in a non-fenced block | Fix: either wrap or fence the block. |
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.
