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 | $0.00030 | $0.00254 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00012 | $0.00102 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00051 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00003 | $0.00025 |
Grade A, and why
check-use-state 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.
What it actually says
Check that no frontend component uses more than 2 useState hooks. A component with too many local state variables is a sign it should be refactored (custom hook, context, or state manager).
Steps
-
Use the Grep tool to find all
useState(occurrences acrossapps/web/src/**/*.tsxfiles, with output modecontentand line numbers enabled, so you can see each match with its file path and line number. -
Group the results by file. For each file, count the number of lines that contain
useState(— ignore import lines (lines containingimport). -
Report the results in two sections:
Violations (> 2 useState)
List every file that has more than 2 useState calls. For each file show:
- The relative file path (from repo root)
- The count
- The line numbers of each

Summary
"X files checked, Y violations found." If there are no violations, congratulate 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.

check-use-state is a skill published in the GitHub repository bayesimpact/bayes-platform (23 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 30 tokens to every session and 254 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-14.
